1t win last until March 1. This will
be the shortest season that the State
hss ever known for quail shooting and
the sportmen wiz take full advantage
OF IL. Probably score or more of
the local hunters VIII sally forth from
Columbia at an early hour tomorrow
morning with dogs and guns. The
stores which deal. in sportsmen's
goods, report that they have had a
good sale of guns and ammunition,
indicating great deal Of interest in
the shooting season
The indications are that the hunters
will be abundantly rewarded for the
time which they put in hunting quail
this Year Reports come from all Sec
tons of Tennessee that quail have not
been so numerous in years as they
are this season. The open season be-
gins this year two weeks later than
heretofore, due to an amendment to
the law made by the last legislature
and this has given the quail an oppor-
tunity to mature. Then again last
winter was an exceptionally mild one
and very few birds were frozen or
starved to death by reason or the
cold weather.
There is an abundance of quail In
Maury county. Those who have Wis
tied the woodlands and stubble fields
which are most freQuented by quail
make the same report Of the presence
Of the fowls In unusual numbers. The .
ocal hunters anticipate one of the
best seasons that they have ever had.
70 far as known, there have been no
1iolations of the law in this county,
the sportsmen have been
impatient, owing to the late
opening Of the season.
