Rumors ara " abroad to the effect
that some China , pheasants are be
ing kilted already this season. Ihe
suspicion is largely based on the
amount of ammunition recently
purchased, and the number of

the exact measura for a China.
According to law no pheasants are
to be killed before the 1st of Octo
ber, and it is unlawful for any one
person to kill more, than ten birds
in a single day's hunting it is well
to remember this, as game wardens
are in ambush. ;.
