One resident of the Jackson ville area reported approximate ly 50 hunters swarmed into a field where he had 82 head of fancy stock pastured, ana ny their firing made life miserable for both him and his stock. A half dozen warrants were Issued in Justice court, charging falsification of hunting license, shooting on enclosed land, and shooting In a game reservation. C. C.
