Dear Aldo: 
I still have a few quail sex ratio 
cards out which I hope to get in within the 
next week. Last week I wrote you at Washington 
having had a letter from Mr. Beck asking if I 
could put your committee in touch with lands suit- 
able for game refuges in this state. I presume 
this letter did not reach you. 
We had a splendid quail crop. Have 
plenty left for seed and plenty of food. The 
winter so far has been exceedingly mild. Next 
year the season should be even better. 
 
)urs,
