Quail Turnover Is
Heavy in Texas
“Quail cannot be stock-piled.”
says the director of wildlife
restoration of the Game and
Fish Commission.
Now is the time, he reminds
hunters, to take advantage of
the “spectacular numbers of
quail” found in many parts of
the state. Cold weather soon
will reduce these numbers and
decreases available food sup-
plies for all kinds of wildlife.
Game and Fish Commission
field personnel already report
fewer quail in some areas.
“The exploding population
this year is very likely to do
a complete turn-about next
year, probably by spring,” he
said.
Survival will depend upon
the condition of food and cover
crops and existing rat popula-
tions. “The greatest losses will
be found where rats are numer-
ous and cover and food are
low,” he said.
Quail apparently will not
move extensively if they have
an ample food supply. Evidence
of this comes from a report that
one man shot a quail he had
released at the same spot 18
months ago.

Annual Conference
On Limestone Use
Scheduled at A&M
Agricultural limestone is be- ;
coming increasingly important j
as a factor in upping crop and i
pasture production in the sec- i
tions of Texas where the soil is |
deficient in lime or calcium.
Though the amount of limestone
used in the state has more than
doubled in the past decade, W.
F. Bennett, extension soils chem-
ist, says that some 3,000,000
tons could be used profitably
by farmers and ranchmen of the
eastern half of Texas to bring
their soils up to the proper lime
levels for maximum production.
The application of limestone
should be based upon soil tests,
points out Bennett, and he lists
four chief benefits which can
be expected from lime.' It re-
duces soil acidity and increases
the efficiency of fertilizers; adds
plant food, mostly calcium, to
the soil; improves the tilth and
water holding capacity of the
soil and its carry-over effects
lasts for several years.
The Texas Agricultural Lime-
stone Association, in coopera-
tion with the. Texas Agricultural
Extension Service, is again
sponsoring the annual Lime-
stone Conference scheduled for
January 9-10, 1959, in Texas
A&M’s Memorial Student Center.
Bennett says the Friday after-
noon session will be devoted to
Association business while the
Saturday morning session will
provide information on more
general subjects relative to
limestone use.
