THE season is now open for hunting
all kinds of game in New Jersey" a
member of the party said in the Broad

game on our trip to Hunterdon county
last year, and we expect to do as well
or perhaps better now, for we nave
been advised that game, especially of
the rabbit tribe, is plentiful, and We
may shoot a few foxes. We may get
some fat cartridges. In October we
had good c in Sussex county
shooting birds"
