PIGEONS FOR SHOOTING.
MEN WHO MAKE A BUSINESS OF SUPPLY

There have been few pigeon matches contested
during tho summer and the most important OF these
were shot a. Long Branch and Elkwood But the
opening OF the holiday season will see the gnnners
active again Trap shooting Is sport that has
grown in popularity within the last few years. a
fact that Is probably due somewhat to the con-
santly decreasing stock Of wild game. A hiintsman
must needs be good wing shot to get anywhere
near the worth of his money Consequently. great

pigeons sprung from traps. Pigeon shooting IL also

largest part of this money by far Is spent for the
birds and this fact has opened market for pigeons
such never existed before.
When witnessing pigeon atches many people
have wondered where all the birds came from
that were used in the traps or course. tame
pigeons sufficiently plentiful not to be objects
Of more than ordinary interest but they are rarely
seen in other than small hocks. In fact. I'm the
early days Of pigeon-shooting the dearth OF birds
often prevented many good match taking place.
and even now II requires good deal of hustling
at times TO furnish all the birds required for some
OF the big trap Journeys But the pigeon shooters
do not depend altogether on the farmers boys to
provide the birds for the sport now Many men
have gone into the business OF raising pigeons for
living. and they making out extremely well

about ten thousand birds annually. When II Is
considered that II requires probably more than
