Report of the Committee on State Parks and Conservation. 
The following report of the Committee on State Parks and 
Conservation was received and ordered filed. 
To the Ohio Academy of Science: 
Your Committee can not report any very extensive activity during 
the past year, but there are several matters of interest which it will 
be proper to mention. 
The final acquisition and dedication of the Roosevelt Park in 
southern Ohio establishes an extensive and very desirable tract as a 
permanent game refuge in which we can be assured of the preservation 
of the natural conditions; and it would appear a very satisfactory 
arrangement for control between the Fish and Game Commission and 
State Forester, both of whom, no doubt, will accept suggestions con- 
cerning biological features that may be of service. 
Under the Silver Bill the State Forester has secured additional tracts 
for State Forestry purposes, and these, of course, are distinct advances 
in the matter of preservation of the native flora and fauna.
