The birds were the second group to be released here this year. Officials said the early spring hatches were in excellent shape and should winter well to make excellent breeding stock for coming year.

The pheasants released here early in the summer, an official pointed out at a recent meeting of the executive of the Innisfail Fish and Game, have made themselves right at home and produced hatches. The site for the release of the 800 chicks will provide ideal cover and feeding for the winter and spring months.

At the Department of Transport station at the city airport, a high reading of 89 was reached on Aug. 12.
