HUNTERS MUST APPLY FOR PERMIT
TO TAKE PART IH BISON HUNT
Hunters desiring to partici
pate in the bison hunt which
will be held in October should
obtain an application now,
game officials said this week.
The applications are available
from all Alaska department of
fish and game offices. Up to 20
non-productive bison will be
harvested from the Delta Jun
ction herd starting October 5.
Permit applicants must possess
a valid hunting license when
applying, and they must
enter their hunting license
number upon the application.
The applications should be
mailed to the Alaska Depart
ment of Fish and Game, 604
Barnette Street, Room 116.
Fairbanks, Alaska. The draw
ing will be held in Fairbanks
in early September. The lucky
20 will be notified as soon as
the drawing is completed.
The hunt, wnich will start on
Oct. 5, will be supervised by
Alaska department of fish and
game personnel, and only sel
ected non-productive animals
will be taken. The bison herd
is estimated to contain about
300 animals, and at present is
believed to be in balance with
the existing range. Past man
agement efforts have reduced
the conflict between farmers
and bison, and apparently as
evidenced by this year’s very
good calf crop, stimulated in
creased productivity.

Fire can destroy the Bond...but not the savings
.A]] that the owner of
this charred U. S.
Savings Bond has to
do is mail the remains
to the Treasury De
partment, with as
much more informa
tion as he can give—
serial number, and
date and place of is
sue. He’ll get a fresh
Bond to replace it.
No charge.
The Treasury has
grown accustomed to
providing this sort of
service. In the past
20 years they’ve re
placed over 1,300,000
Savings Bonds that
have been lost, stolen,
burned or mistakenly
tossed out with the
trash.
Every U. S. Savings
Bond sold is regis
tered in the name
of its owner, and a
microfilm record
made. So the govern
ment always knows
when, where, and in
whose name a Bond
was purchased—even
if there isn’t a burned
crisp to send them.
This assurance
against loss is an
other of the many
reasons why Ameri
cans now hold over
$46 billion in Series
E and II Savings
Bonds. The money
they’re saving is pro
viding for their per
sonal security. And
it’s also helping to
build the strength of
America at a time
when the enemies of
freedom are stronger
than ever.
U. S. Savings
Bonds are a good way
to provide for your
future. Buy them
where you bank or
work.
Quick facts about U.S. Savings Bonds
• You get $4 for every $3 at maturity • You can get
your money anytime • Your Bonds are replaced free
if lost, destroyed or stolen • You can save automat
ically on Payroll Savings
