Rules For Hunters.
gone.

Now that the hunting season is
here we give the following ironic rules
which all hunters are respectfully re-
quested to memorize.
Always when crossing wire fence
pull your gun through after you by
the muzzle. This is the sureSt way to
get discharge of both barrels at one
time.
When hunting on a farm where
there is live stock be sure and shut
your eyes when you pull the trigger.
You can then swear that you did not
see the horse before you shot.
In lieu of quail shoot few chick
ems, the farmers have nothing to do
but to raise them anyway
Ifyour gun misses fire, blow in the
muzzle. This will tell you whether
or not it is loaded. The risk cuts no
figure when game dinner is in sight.
If you want to makea reputation as
great hunter, buy your birds from
some farmer boy. He won't give you
away and the birds taste the same to
your friends.
