In the alfalfa and grain fields ducks

quently ranchers are able to shoot
ducks from their door-yards. and last
winter a large flock OF canvasbacks
settled down along a canal which pass
es through the heart OF Phoenix. and
for a week kept uptown residents
awake by their noise during the feed

Down along the ella river the Pima
Indians kill the ducks in large num-
bers, using clubs as weapons. Creep

grows close up to the banks Of the

Pima lads will emerge suddenly and
simultaneously upon the bank within

Indian carries half dozen short.
heavy clubs. and these are thrown As
the frightened ducks rise. Sometimes
a two-foot mesquite stick brings down
two ducks.
The seri and Cooopah Indians. along
the lowor Colorado and tho gulf, have
