wears. Cunning, though, has been poor
from the opening Of the season. This Is
due to the dry weather, which drove the
partridgcs into the woods and swampS
And II covy CHANGED to be flushed out in
the fields, the dogs could not work at all,
the ground being 80 dry there was no trail.
In consequence of the dry season
the birds have been spared but when
they come out Of the swamps, there
will be the finest kind OF sport. One does
not have 70 so far 70 set fair shooting at
partridges, either, but everything Is In
knowing where to so.
