Icy, have good substantial homes! vast
herds of cattle, wear modern clothes,
are most prosperous and satisfied.
From Kalamath falls we drove to
Flagstaff bridge, near Warmers lake,
where we pitched our camp, between
the east and west lakes, at a point
where we had located a fly way. War
ner's lake Is the great breeding
grounds for all species Of ducks. They
have no fear of man as they remain
undisturbed during the nesting period
When the open season arrives the
lakes are black with both ducks and
geese. When they arise from, the
water the heavens are filled with birds
and the rush of their wings as they
pass has the sound Of the propeller of
an akroplane. Between the lakes,
which are from to 6 miles in dia-
meter, 10 q sand ridge or hill near
where the ducks had their regular fly
ways and there we constructed our
blinds, camouf1aging them in most
deceptive manner for the birds.
There was no especial time for the
flight, it was continuous. 1t was our
privilege to select shots and species
OF passing birds. Canvas back and Red
Head had the call. Our blinds were To-
Gated about 100 yards apart, which
gave US an excellent opportunity to
watch each others wing work. Both

seldom mistakes were made and they
pulled down their birds with distress
ing regularity. Although 1t was vir.
tually prairie shooting. which is so de-
ceptive to the novice, the boys knew
the leads. distance and velocity of tho
birds and made the major, portion OF
their shots tell This kept me espec-
tally industrious and was taking Ne
long chances on shots, as had my
work cut out, to stay in the running at
my best. In very limited time we
all had the bag limit, called the shoot

market today lean to the bear side.
Opening prices which ranged from the
same as Saturdays finish to NC lower
with May $1.27A and July $1.4S to Y
were followed by decided further set
back.
In the last hour tho market rallied
owing largely to reports that much
planting was being put of as result
Of fears that the terminating quality
Of seed was doubtful and that there
was consequently but little desire to
replant The close was unsettled, May
$f.27h and July $1.47X to e, &c of to

Oats sagsed in sympathy with corn
and because Of excellent crop pros

to decline.
A little scattered selling CARRIED pro-
