You make no mistake if it is an electrical gift hat and come to me. If I had knocked 1 down any birds I would take the hat t and tell him to go get ’em. But if • I took the hat and said nothing doing, > he always gave me a reproachful look. One evening I had nine mallards on a string strung across my shoulder and came out of the big marsh, four miles below town. It was dark as pitch and I could not see my hand before me. It was raining pitchforks and the wind howling through the trees. I felt my way along the muddy road from the old McLeod place to ward Cedar Point. About a half a mile from the marsh the dog began bumping against my legs. The far ther I went the harder he bumped in to me. This continued until I reached the railroad track, a distance of two mile« from the marsh. Finally becom ing exasperated, I kicked out at him and told him to stay farther behind. He did for a short distance and then began bumping me again with his nose. ' I stopped and lit a match, thinking something must be wrong with him. And there in his mouth was a big drake mallard that had dropped off my string of ducks. Always trust your dog. Do not was 16 birds, which cost them 812.60 for ammunition. To see some hunters perform one could never imagine that these were times of depression and that ehot gun shell* are a n icicle apiece. How can we increase our Chinese pheasant crop? That is the question that has been before the sportsmen of this district for several years. I have always been interested in the welfare of these wonderful game birds. In fact I was responsible for the first consignment ever being shipped in here by the state game commission, when Capt Burghduff was state warden. Other birds had been liberated before that time by pri vate parties, inculding Ed Lorens, W. C. Rose and the late W. W. Gage. These birds had already made a fair start before the commission shipped any in. But now that there is an open season on them and they are al most exterminated each year, we have to look toward the commission for our annual quota. A sportsman informed me that he had an idea how to protect these birds to a great extent during the open season and if the course was followed we would have no trouble about not having plenty of birds on land. His idea is worth printing: Pass a law to prohibit a man from using a bird dog in tha pursuit of the birds. He pointed out the fact that nine birds out of ten that are shot are killed over a bird dog and that a bird stands no chance against a trained dog. But against mere man the wily old roosters seem to delight in showing him up. Of course such a law would be tough on the owners of fine hunting dogs and there is not one chance in a million of it ever being passed. But I must agree with the gent that hi* ide« is nevertheless a good one. Auto Tries House Breaking Motmtad* States DF AY FRQ!
