Tn . sands Of Pigeons Killed.

Tho woods in Shannon, Oregon and
Howell counties are full OF pigeons,
which are being killed by the thousand
for shipment to Eastern markets. Pied
mont, on the Arkansas division OF the
Iron Mountain railroad, is the shipping
point, and from there are shipped
every day from seven hundred to ono
thousand dozens of igeons, bringing
into the country from six to eight dol
la. per diem. The bird! are sent to
Boston and New York. where they
sell at tl.30 and Sl.6O per dozen. The
roosts Of the pigeons are from sixty to
eigh. W miles southwest from Piedmont,
aud the hunters go out in parties of
four to six, provided with wagons to
bring in tho game. The pigeons are
continually moving towards the north,
but their progress does not exceed
eight, or at the utmost, twelve miles
per day. With daylight they leave
their roosts in almost innunerable nun :
bsrs, and after feeding at will during
tho day, repair to roosts a days jour
ney further on their way northward.
The hunters watch their game settle
down, and then range through the
woods, looking up, and when body Of
pigeons settled on the limbs of a pine
or oak is outlined against the sky, q
half-dozen men fire at signal into the
plass. What pigeons are not left on the
ground fly away, and the hunters 60 on
following until they get another oppor-

all hands are set at wsrk to pick up
the game and prepare fer the next
