The duck is much more cunning than
great many of its brothers of the
bird tribe and this is the reason that
it was found necessary to devise the
decoy as a means of Turing him within
the reach of the gunner. After Il few
experiences with these dummies the
wise bird begins to cultivate suspi-
cion and makes Il critical investigation
before he alights in the middle of what
appears to be bunch of birds on Il
feeding ground. 1t is no uncommon
thing for flock of ducks sighting
lot of decOys to circle around out of
reach of the fowling piece, and. discov-
ering the deception, start off on their
journey, to the chagrln of the watch

The Missouri Is a Dusty River.

THE dust blows out of the Missouri
river" asserted Bob Burdette. 1T is
the only river in the world where the
dust blows in one great column out Of
the river bed. The catfish come up to
the surface to sneeze. The Missouri
river is composed of six parts sand and
mud and four parts water. The natu-
raj color of the water is seal brown. but
when it rains for two or three days
and the river gets pretty wet it changes
to dark iron gray. a long rain will
make this river so thin that it can cas-

HOLSTERS haunt rocks, just as rabbits
do woods or furZe brakes. They can
not live without cover, and if there are
no holes in the rocks for them to re-

does, in the earth and sea turf unde

whether Holsters remain awake all day
