Dear Mr. Leopold& 
 
             I have read with interest your letter of March 6 
to Doctor Lory. As suggested by you I am returning the 
Prospectus for a Demonstration in Natural Quail Farming. It is 
my impression that quail growing in eastern Golorado, for some 
reason, does not prosper. The Bob White has not increased as 
it should and do in other lcalities. The ring necked pheasant 
seems highly adapted to this eastern Colorado condition. 
However, when you reach in your work the state of Colorado, we 
shall be interested to see where we can cooperate and how. 
Perhaps it will not be with the quail and then again it may be 
possible to correct adverse conditions and succeed with quail 
culture. 
 
             I believe that we are doing more with economic 
forest zoology, or game propagation studies, here than else- 
where in the state and shall always be glad to cooperate. 
With best personal wishes, I am 
 
 
Sincerely yours,
