Trapping Turkeys.


One Of the methods by which wild
turkeys are taken by native hunters, as
described in Hunting and Fishing In
Florida" by Mr.. g. B. Cory, curator Of
the department Of ornithology in the
Field Columbian museum, Chicago,
certainly does little credit to the inteli.
gence Of the turkeys.
A place is found where turkeys are
numerous. Corn is scattered about, and
II that is eaten, more corn is placed
there the next day. The birds are fed in
this manner for q week or two, until
they become accustomed to going there
for food. Then small logs are laid,
forming square Iox about 6 or 8 inches
in height; possibly two logs ON each
side, enc above the other. Inside is
placed the corn, and the turkeys enter
it readily, as tho obstruction is not
sufficient to excite their fears.
The next night another log is added,
raising the box a little, perhaps foot
or SO, and this process goes on until the
small logs form cone shaped boz, mar
rowing at the top, leaving an opening
perhaps foot or IS inches wide, by
which they can enter at the top.
Corn is placed in the box, and q few
kernels leading to it. as usual, and the
turkeys, mounting the last log, drop in
and eat up the corn. And now they are
caught. The opening is so narrow that,
although turkey can easily jump down
through it with closed wings. it cannot
jump out again with its wings spread,
