that squirrels have not been &c
plentiful for many years. Farm
ers all have the same story to tell.
They say that the gray aud fox
squirrels are quite plentiful, and
the saucy little red or pine squir-
rels are to be seen everywhere
There is q good deal Of complaint
about the lawmakers fixing the
shooting season in August, which
is the worst month in the year TO
secure game of this kind. The
fact that this has been the law for
two years may be the reason for the
increase in thenumber Of squirrels.
The weather is hot and dry and
the squirrels have not begun to
feed upon the nuts that are found
abuntantly in the woods later in
the fall. The result il that they
are hard to find. moving only carly
in the morning and late In the
evening Many hunters claim
that in the hot weather they feed
at night and scarcely move during
the day fine. This is especially
