ALASKA DUCKS MIGRATE
 TO CHINA AND PHILIPPINES

SEWARD: Game wardens along the Inlet have again raised the ques- ton which was raised when ducks with rice in their craws were killed on Seward peninsula.
 This winter the ducks sum |mering on Cook Inlet had not migrated south on November 1, although. zero weather already prevailed. Early in October reports were received that ducks were migrating from Canadian lakes, and from California came word that ducks were arriving in the Sac ramento valley a month ahead Of time. It was then evident that the migration of Alaskan birds had nOth- ing to do with the arrivals on the southern coast.
 Hunters, hearing that ducks in large numbers were still to be found on the flats, braved the cold to bag them. Several hunting parties nearly came to grief. One party of seven left Anchorage late in October for a days hunting at Fire island and re- turned nearly dead from cold and hunger ten days later. Most of this time was spent in an open dory buck ing the ice. It was too cold for the duck hunters then, but not for the ducks. On November came a break in the weather and a sharp rise in the temperature.
