Did you ever flag ducks? Percy NJ
Gushing, I'm the May outing, describes the
keen pleasure to be derived from this sport
In part he says:
Perhaps the best method for the average
man to adopt in order that he may appear
sufficiently curious is first, the wearing
OF cap with a red flannel lining; second.
turning Il inside out when in the act Of
acting eccentric; third. IL is advisable that
the remainder of ones person be kept
strictly In seclusion, preferably behind an
ample tuft of beach grass or a tangle OF
sand cedars. All of which is rather
windy way OF saying that red cloth is tho
best thing TO use when Tagging ducks.
'Flagging ducks! Does that sound
trifle unfamiliar? 1t may IL you live in
the interior, where the mallards grow in
the rice sloughs. and all you have to do
TO kill a mess is to tramp across the
pasture and shoe them out, And, on the
other hand. II YOU live along the open
bays OF the coast line, you have probably
taken hand at this game yourself.
"At any rate, it's good sport. for you
have 20 work hard for the game, and Il
requires patience perseverance, and a will

been left in the dark in regard to this
action.
The case which the government now
proposes to hear in Kansas City is known
as the Lexington case. 1t Is based on the
seizure OF a, shipment of flour from the
Lexington mills OF Nebraska at point in
transit IN Missouri,
The defense makes no denial that the
flour seized has been bleached. Nebraska
millers propose to go through to the finish
on the contention that the treatment OF
the flour with nitrogen peroxide TO re-
move coloring matter is not an adulter-
alton. The hearing of the case will there
fore involve much of expert testimony
and technicality.
All of the milling companies Of Nebraska
are standing back of the Lexington case
as they were in the Council Bluffs case
in which the Updike milling company and
the Shawnee milling company of Topeka
were involved.
