When fresh meat is urgently needed,
and when time is too short. the hunter
who is after antelope in an open flat
tish country must risk many long
shots. In no other kind of hunting is
there so much long-distance shooting.
Throwing the buck into the wagon
we continued our journey across the
prairie, no longer following any road,
and before sunset joted down towards
the big creek for which we had been
heading. There were many water
holes therein, and timber of considera-
BILE size; box alder and ash grew here
and there in clumps and fringes, be-
side the serpentine curves of the near
ly dry torrent bed, the growth being
thickest under the shelter of the occa-
sional low bluffs. We drove down to
heavily grassed bottom, near deep,
narrow pool with, at one end, that
rarest of luXuries i'll the plains coun-
try, Il bubbling spring of pure cold
water. With plenty of wood delicious
water, ample feed for the horses, and
fresh meat we had every comfort and
luxury incident to camp life in good
weather. The bedding was tossed out
on a smooth spot beside the wagon;
the horses We're watered and tethered
to picket pins where the feed was
best; water was fetched from the
spring; deep hole was dug for the
fire, and the grass roundabout care
fully burned off; and in a few mo-
ments the bread was baking in the
Dutch oven, the potatoes were boiling,
antelope steaks We're sizzling in the
frying-pan, and the kettle was ready
for the tea. After supper, eaten with
the relish known well to every hard
working and successful hunter, we sat
for half an hour or so round the fire,
and then turned in under the blankets
and listened to the wailing of the
coyotes until we fell sound asleep.
We determined to stay in this camp
all day, so as to try and kill another
prong-buck, as we would soon be past
the good hunting grounds. / did not
