Thousands of Hunters Invade County
As Pheasant Season Opens Saturday;
Prospects Appear Aright for Big Kill
Hunting Legal Oct. 23 on Most Upland Birds,
Waterfowl, Giving Sportsmen a Variety
Thousands of hunters are expected to invade Malheur
county for opening of the pheasant season at 8 o’clock Satur
day morning. Local farmers say the crop appears larger than
normal, although state game officials estimate it down for
the state as a whole.
Sportsmen will be coming from all parts of the state into
the area east of the Cascades,*
and since Malheur county is
considered tops in the state,
Nyssa, Vale and Ontario will
be overflowing.
