The coming of October brings with
it the opening of the big game hunt
ing season in eight of the counties of
the State, SO far as the hunting of deer
is concerned, but on moose there is a
closed season which continues in eff
feet until Nov. l, 1919. Augusta hunt
ers are planning to go up into the big
woods, as they do each year. but they
will go later as the foliage is still
heavy on the trees and then the bucks
do not begin to come out until later
in the season. The majority Of the deer
killed during the early part of Octo-
Der are does but what the deer hunter
covets is a head with antlers, hence
the Augusta hunters will for the great
er part wait until later in the month
before seeking the Businesses of the
big woods.

British Making Guns
Bigger Than Any U. S.

Washington, Oct. Battleships
equipped with 18-inch guns, three
inches bigger than any now afloat and
two inches greater than the largest
guns projected for the new battleships
and battle cruisers to be added to the
American navy, are under construction
in Great Britain, according to unof-
fetal advices which are given credence
by naval officials here.
The big weapons are designed prim-
arily. it is said. for use against land
Notifications. The 16-inch guns to be
put on the four American battle
ships for which bids will be opened
next month, they declare have a range
sufficient to make them effective as far
as an enemy can be seen, even under
the most favorable circumstances. For
this reason. they do not believe en-
ployment of large and more unwieldy
types would be practicable against the
shifting targets of an open sea engage
ment however advantageous they
might be against land Notifications.
Fourteen inch or Is inch guns can be
carried in great number and be fired
with greater rapidity.
AS a means of developing floating
forts, however. which could throw
great projectiles into land fOrtifica-
tons out of sight over the horizon. the
reported British venture in battleship
construction Is regarded by ordnance
experts here as having great possibili-
ties. They estimate that shells weigh
ing nearly three thousand pounds
could be used effectually, and point out
that an Is inch gun would have a
range equal to, If not greater. than the
average European coast defense ord
nance. What effect development of
such engines of war might have on flu
ture building plans of the American
navy no official would predict. It was
said that plans for armament Of the
battieships to be bid for next month
and completed three years hence
would not be changed.
The largest guns carried now by
any naval vessel, so far as shown by
records here are Is inch rifles mounted
on some Of the latest British. German
and Italian battleships. The largest on
any American ship are those of the IA
inch type carried by the Pennsylvania
and vessels of her class
