\ number Of sportsmen have been
discussing the question Of how far 8
quail can fly. There are a good many
contingencies to be considered IN ar
irving at 3 definite conclusion o. the
question. The wind cuts no inconsid-
cradle figure IN the distance ore Of
these birds "a fly. If th,re IS 3 stiff
wind blowing and the birds course il
with the wind, a full-5rown quail
conld certainly go more than a mile
with ease, and doubtless a much
greater distance. Those who have
noticed quail trying TO fly across the
Missouri River, where the distance is
about q mile, recall that not oil the
birds make the trip safely. They
usually pick a spot where they can
make q halt on a sandbar in mid
steam, and thus cross the river N two
flights. But sometimes they make
the distance n a single flight, and
this seems to be their full limit under
normal conditions. for when they
alight they are completely exhausted.
It is generally believed TINT on an av-
erago mile is about the limit of tho
! flight of a quail where II is neither
favored nor retarded by the wind. It
happens very often thst in crossing
the Missouri River at a single flight
quail drop exhausted into the water.
Probably these are young birds.-St
