POOR HUNTING THIS YEAR

That you have to work for every
bird you get this season, is the opin-
ion of the hunters returning from
Their hunt. Wild game is scarce in
practically every section of the STATE
and few hunters were lucky enough
to bring home enough to pass around
to friends. There has been only one
report of chickens being plent full come
into Grand Forks and that was from
Ray.
Ducks are very poor crop, accord
ing to reports coming from lakes in
the state. Very few small mallards
have been shot at the sloughs where
in other years they were plentiful.
The native ducks have been almost all
shot off and the prairie chickens are
rapidly following the same route.
The hunters have orly few days
left and unless the northern ducks
come down in large numbers before
the season closes, hundreds OF men
will be disappointed.
Farmer and others in the state are
awakening to the fact that something
must be done to save the game and a
number Of applications have been sent
to the state game commissioner from
farmers who wish to establish game
reserves on their farms. There are
now about 20 such reserves in North
Dakota.
