afield next season than ever before
in the state. One cannot go to the
country these days without hearing
the birds. All around Nashville they
seem to be plentiful. Sportsmen
say the .ong-dry weather has helped
the birds very greatly, and they
anticipate good bags next winter.
Squirrels are reported to be scarce.
The timbered country where they
formerly were plentiful has been de-
nuded of its hickory, and as a result
squirrels are few and far between.
But the bird prospect is very bright.
