HUNTERS AWAIT
FLIGHT OF DUCKS
FROM FAR NORTH
Season Closes On Prairie
Chickens In State On
October 16

North Dakota hunters have but ten
days left in which to go in quest of
the prairie chicken. The season
on these birds closes Oct. 16, opening
Sept. is. an open season of just
30 days.
Shooting of prairie chick
ems for the 1917 season closed in Min
nesota last Sunday. The wild hen was
found the scarcest and widest in a
number of years in the country
around Bagley, GAINESVILLE, Crooks
ton, Hallock, Fertile, Twin Valley
and Hendrum, for years hunting
grounds for Fargo and Moorhead
people.
There has been only one report re-
ceived in Fargo this season as to
chickens being plentiful in North
Dakota and that came from Ray
about a week ago. That the farmers
and others in North Dakota are
awakening to the fact that within a
few years the prairie chicken will be
extinct is seen by the number of ap-
plications sent to the state game and
fish commission Offering reserves"
as Ravens for wild game. To date
about twenty such Ravens have been
created in North Dakota.
Black Kings Increasing.
County Commissioner Thomas c.
Hockridge Of Hunter. N. D., says It
is not the hunters of North Dakota
who are killing off the birds. The
crow and the hawk are blamed by the
commissioner. He says the crows
