ducks and other migratory birds fy-
ing southwark. Several hunting par
ties from Oakland were out along the
river and at the lake at Mountain

represented in the bunch. The can

gunners report that a number of sea
gulls were in a flock of ducks that
allghted on the lake at Mountain Lake
Park-an occurrence that has seldom
been noticed by those who frequent
the lakeside in quest of ducks.

Apropos of the territory in which a
large coal field is to be developed in
Garrett county, contemporary de-
scribes that region as a veritable
Eden. High up as it is, the nights
even in summer require blankets to
make sleeping comfortable. There
are never-failing springs and streams
about the country of ice-cold temper
AZURE in midsummer, and the lands
above the coal seams are highly pro-
ductive. Beautiful maple groves are
in profusion, adding to the pictur-
esqueness of the region. Garrett be-
ing noted for its production of ma
pie sugar. Game is plentiful in the
forests, and it is said it was a usual
thing last winter for a miner to 90
to work with a roasted pheasant tuck
ed snugly away in his dinner pail
