American Big Game in its Haunts 



along the course of the San Francisco River in New 

 Mexico, which are far removed from the part of the 

 reserve which is most suitable for game. The fact 

 that deer continue abundant in the district about the 

 head of Black River, although hunted at all seasons 

 for many years, and the continuance there of elk for 

 so long, under the same conditions, is good evidence 

 of the favorable conditions existing in that section 

 for game.
