 F. o. Davis of this city and Pom fret, member of the state fish and game commission, said Saturday thai 120 Hungarian cartridges have been released in various sections of Wind ham county since the first of the year A considerable number of quail has also been released. The last batch six quail and 20 partridges-were de- livered by the commission Saturday to Frank Fenton of Wiliimantic.
 Contrary to the opinion held by many hunters, the foreign cartridges that have been released in Windham coun- ty towns are making a fine showing and are propagating in a normal man. ner. Reports received by Commission CT Davis show that the birds are thriving and that there is little doubt but the expense attached to getting them into this county has been justi- he'd by results.
 Eighty of the Hungarian birds let go in Windham county this year found liberty in the town of Putnam, Pom fret and Thompson; but it has been learned that other birds released in other sections have found homes in adjoining towns. Aside from the towns mentioned, it is known that these birds are now in the woods in the towns Of Brooklyn, Hampton and Killingly.
 Several hundred quail were to be distributed throughout Connecticut in addition to the number released this year, but the discovery by government officials of quail disease among the birds in one pen shipped from Kan sas, where the Connecticut commits sion has been getting its quail, has re- suited in an order forbidding ship ments for the time being.
 This is taken to mean that no more quail from the west will be received here this year, as before the embargo is lifted it will probably be too warm to make successful shipments.
