WILD DUCKS NUMEROUS
ON POTOMAC MARSHES
Cold Snap Has Started South
ern Migration and Hunters
Are Bagging Them.

Wild ducks are beginning to arrive
In considerable numbers according to
reports from along the river. The re-
cent cold snap and heavy northwester
has induced the birds to start south on
their annual migration.
Masters of river vessels report hav-
ing seen more ducks in the past week
or ten days than at any time previous
in the season. The dealers here have
had one or two shipments from the
hunters down river who kill the birds
asa business.
Several small f1ockS have been seen
on the river between this city and
Alexandria in the past week. Hunters
have been after them.
The marshes are filled with wild oats
and other grasses on which the birds
live. IL this Is any Indication, the
hunting season should be good one.
Rabbits, squirrels. wild turkeys and
other game are said to be plentiful in
King George and the other counties of
Virginia bordering the river. The out
look for the season there is most ex-
cellent.
The duck hunting season in Mary
land waters opened Wednesday, with
many hunters in the field. The Mary
land law regulating the shooting of
wild ducks names Monday. Wednesday
and Friday of each week up to the first
of the year. after which Saturday
is added. as the days on which ducks
may be legally shot by licensed gun
ncrs.
The number of licenses issued will
probably be about twenty-five to thirty
for sink boxes and thirty-five to forty
sneak boats. which is about the usual
number issued for the past few years.
Many hunters were on hand for the
shooting on the Susquehanna flats at
the opening of the season. As usual.
there were violations of the law by
hunters anxious to get on the ground
before the time prescribed by the regu-
lations.
AS the fine is only SIS. the sportsmen
are perfectly willing to pay this for
the sake of getting a favorable loca-
ton.
This year the advocates of the game
laws seem determined that these laws
shall be enforced against all offenders.
provided, of course, they ARE caught.
There are said to be more ducks-can-
vasbacks. redheads and blackheads-
on the flats than for several years,
and they are enjoying to the utmost
the fine celery which grows there so
extensively.
