ers Out; Plenty OF Ducks.
Tucumcari. n. NJ, Nov. deer
hunting is exceptionally good in tie
vicinity of Tucumcari this year, the
animals for some reason coming closer
than usual to town This week Alec
Street and A. V. Dickey both killed
dec- a few miles northwest of the city
in the rough land, near the Canadian
river, the distance from Tucumcari not
being more than eight or ten miles.
Numerous deer hunting parties are
now out from town in the mountains
to the north and west Of here.
Quail are the most plentiful of sew
eral years in this vicinity, the birds
being so tame that they may be driven
across country by persons on foot,
several large cOvies having been driv-
en- even into town. Ali was in readi-
ness for the opening of the quail sea-
son today and many licenses were
taken out by hunters.
Wild ducks are becoming plentiful
about this part of the state since the
cooler weather has set on and baked
duck has become one of the delica cies
Of the season. Many local hunters are
visiting Hanley and neighbOring
towns where the sport is exceptionally
good.
With the thousands of half grown
rabbits about everywhere, Quay cOun-
ty is not to be despised this fall by
huntsmen.
