SHOOTING ON THE ALAMO
Gun Club Grounds Made Attractive to
 Hungry Birds.

The El Centro Gun Club has been making extensive Improvements on its preserve on the. Alamo River, clearing out jungles of jules and young will lows, building dikes to hold water in the ponds when the river is low and fixing things to the liking of ducks. For convenience of shooters and "un- beknownst' y tlg ducks, blinds have been built "cUntagiOus' to the ponds and lot of "phony' ducks are on hand to be staked out for the inveiglement and undoing of the willy mallard, the wise canvasback, the shy widgeon and the toothsome teal A few sacks of barley judiciously distributed in shall low water are expected to help make the ponds attractive to the birds and keep them from wandering far afield to get into trouble with irascible far mers. Later in the season wild rice will be sown on the flats.
 comfortable house has been put up for the accommodation of mem- bers visiting the preserve, boats have been provided and a keeper is on the ground to see that the notices for bidding trespass are respected. Last week a wandering shooter notified by the keeper to refrain from hunting on the posted grounds, got even by raiding the club house during the keepers brief absence and stealing a nice bunch of ducks.
 Last Monday morning there was a great flight of ducks down the Ala mo to Salton Sea, all too high for shooting, but at about 10 o'clock they all came back, and thousands upon thousands of birds, including appar ently hosts of new arrivals from the coast driven in by storms, flew to the southward at a great height las if they had no intention of stopping this side of the Mexican line. No birds were killed along the river on Sunday and Monday, the flights being all too high. When the weather moderates the ducks probably will begin to drift north again and the shooting may be as good on the Alamo as it was two weeks ago.
