cooperation with the Biological Survey. Two of the terns were re- 
covered, one in France and another in South Africa, established re- 
markable flight records, the latter flying the longest distance of 
any banded bird ever recaptured, as far as any known records show.1"

      "Pheasant propagation on the state game farm at Martinsville 
in Harrison County has progressed satisfactorily since the farm's 
establishment in October 1928, according to Martin A. Lewis, Chief 
of Parks and Refuges. From the few dozen birds out on the place, 
which at the outset was merely a refuge sixteen months ago, there 
are today approximately 900 birds in that area, a recent check made 
by S. A. Hook, farm operator, shows. 
       The original brood stock of pheasants on the farm included 98 
birds. The first pheasants released were 76 birds turned out on 
the refuge in April 1929. 
      In addition to the birds put in the county by the state many 
birds raised by sportsmen and farmers from eggs furnished by the 
game and fish department have been released during the last few 
years. Prior to the state's acitivity in stocking the county with 
pheasants a few native birds were to be found in that section. 
      Several hundred prairie chickens, native to that section, 
range over the northern part of Harrison County." - Missouri Game
