RAISE in SUMTER
GAME WARDEN TO RESCUE
Ducks Are Protected Game
Until December

Americus sportsmen and those OF
the county at large who anticipated
going after the great droves of sum-
mer ducks that are found in the ponds
and swamps hereabout had best desist
for a time. The summer duck is G.
protected game bird, under state laws,
and cannot be shot lawfully until De-
cember.
So carefully protected is the summer
duck that the game laws prescribe that
it shall be shot during one month on
ly-December The other eleven
months constitute closed season for
the summer ducklet.
Game Warden w. T. McMath has
been skirmishing in the interest o.
the summer duck and gives some val.
liable information concerning the bird.
1t is native to this section; it is not a
migratory bird, like the royal canvas
back and other northern tourists
that come here during the winter
months.
Warden McMath was down in the
Fifteenth district yesterday, looking
after the ducks, and will have the
hearty cooperation of residents there
in protecting them.
In one pond he saw hundreds Ct
ducks of this variety. They raise in
these ponds, and one motherly domi-
necker duck oftimes raises three
broods numbering from dozen to six
teen buckets. They attain good size
and are esteemed as a table delicacy,
the warden says.
To be absolutely sure of the varie "
Warden McMath killed two ducks FIR
careful examination, presenting them
afterwards to the hospital.
Warden McMath declares that under
protection of the game laws the sum-
mer ducks will soon be as numerous
as partridges They are gentle and
approachable by nature, and every
pond and lagoon in this section now
has it's proportion of summer ducks.
December promises rare sport for the
gunners.
If protected, as they should be, this
variety of ducks will greatly increase
in numbers within few years.

"Caterpillars, a name that strikes.

ance here this season, and while found
in only one locality as yet, so far as
reported, may spread rapidly through
out the cotton fields, destroying the

Mr. Emory Webb, whose fine farm is

yesterday the appearance of caterpis-
lars in his cotton The worms were
not there in numbers and had, as yet,
inflicted little damage.
Ordinarily the appearance of these
destructive pests would well nigh
create a panic, but farmers who dis
cussed the matter yesterday expressed
the opinion that little harm could b3
inflicted here now. 1t is too late in
the season, they contend, for the cater
pillar to destroy much cotton.
However, as such large percentage
of the cotton crop in Sumter is young
and unmatured, it would seem that
considerable loss might be inflicted
should the caterpiIlars spread over.
the county. Old cotton could not be
damaged greatly, but the late crop
could be well nigh destroyed.
At all events the first caterpillars tn
appear do practically little harm to the
crop. They reproduce rapidly, how
ever, and the young caterpillars that
appear several weeks hence are ths
destructive ones.
