Game Increasing.

The gratifying announcenfent is made by wild game conservation societies in different parts of the United States that game is no longer decreasing. With the rapid clearing of forests and with too lax laws for the protection of birds and animals the country apparently faced, until a few years ago, the extermination of wild life. Reforestation and the setting apart of large forest reserves have helped in the work of conservation. The result will be more noticeable from year to year. In many sections of the country, too, laws have been passed supplementing the federal migratory bird pi-ovi-sitm, which insure valuable and timely protection.—Christian Science Monitor.
