Show Banding project continuing now Utah's 1964 Canadian goose banding program is continuing this year on marshlands over the state. During the recent days de partment of fish and game crews using airboats have placed bands on nearly 600 geese during this period when the birds are unable to fly and the banding is most easily eas-ily accomplished. Both young and mature birds are banded at this time when young have not yet developed flight feathers fea-thers and the adult birds are moulting. The banding is a part of the continuous study which gives population trends, 'migration routes, and general habits in the management program of these highly prized birds. The importance of U. S. Savings Bonds to the financial finan-cial portfolios of individual Americans is reflected in the $20.1 billion Series E and the $661 million Series H Bonds now being held beyond maturity matur-ity under the automatic extension ex-tension terms of both series. |
