Summary
The Beaver Island Game Club reported in October 1971 that its fall apple-tree pruning was complete and that earlier pruning was improving game food. The club also sowed ten bushels of sweet clover and rye in strategic island locations, following a plan attributed to Bill Welke.
Evidence and limits
The report is a source-bounded habitat-management attestation. It does not identify every work site, quantify wildlife effects, provide a planting map or budget, or establish a formal state wildlife-management program.
