Seeds are small part of the cost

Eight Of 10 high flocks on Mime

cember were located in northern Min
nesota counties.
When the snow goes off. cut out the
old wood and thin the new growth of
currants and gooseberries. Too much
brush and no cultivation usually mean
small fruit.
The hens crop is small and the
winter nights are long, consequently
the heavier feeding should come near
the close of the day. Care should be
taken always that the fowls go on the
roosts with full crops.

island, had been devastated, and that

killed by the Indian ocean cyclone.

OR injured. Large and small craft in
the harbor were damaged or destroy
ed, according to the wireless dis

the small craft in the harbor survived
the blow.

Washington - Another session Of
congress passed into history to the &C
compartment of a senate storm that
swept into limbo some Of the best
laid plans Of party leaders.
Chief among the administration
bills to fail of passage was the $685.
100000 deficiency measure, carrying
important money a1lotments for the
army, for veterans loans and seed
loans to farmers, and for pension in
4creases.
Also consigned to the wastebasket
were the alien property bill, the pos
tai rate revision bill, and the $4,000
900 appropriation to pay for the first
years work on the new public build
ing program.
But the failure or these projects
was not without its saving feature for
administration senators. The favor.
ftes dragged down to defeat with them
the proposal which had tied senate pro-
-cedure in a knot in the closing hours
of the session-the resolution of Sem
ator ]. A. Reed of Missouri to extend
the life of his campaign fund investi.
cation.
Blocked by a flibuster, the Reed
resolution virtually had paralyzed the
senate for three days, and as the ad-
journment hour Of noon approached,
almost frantic efforts to put the pro-
posal aside long enough for passage
of the deficiency bill and other press
ing measures followed one another in
rapid succession. AS one after an
other failed, senators worked them.

| DuIIet through = running WOOD.
chuck.
Each burrow has two doors, front
and back. The front dosr is easily
recognizable through the presence
OF dirt. Usually 1t is built on a hill
side. commanding a view Of several
feet in front. The back door Is not
as large and Ia usually hidden in
grass, no dirt being evident. The
woodchuck uses each impartial.y in
time Of danger and many a hunter
has headed off a running chuck
only to have him dive into a
clump Of grass and descend into his
| subterranean refuge.
Perhaps the most reliable method
Of woodchuck hunting is still"
hunting or waiting out the wood
chuck. Finding burrow which
shows evidence Of being In use, the
hunter establishes himself in a po-
sition where he commands a clear
view Of the front opening. Care
should be taken to have the wind
blowing towards the hunter from
the bu-row as to install oneself up
wind means a fruitless wait.
Early evening is the best time of
day for woodchuck hunting as the
animal usually feeds at that time.
Being sure that he is making no
noise, the hunter waits until the
first indication Of Mr.. Woodchucks
EMERSON, usually tiny bump of
nose showing above the ground. The
waiting part Of the game is the
most exciting: the gunner is neces-.
sarily patient as chance shot ,at
the small portion Of anatomy which
the chuck shows first means clean
miss or at best a wounded wood
chuck which can easily scramble
back into its home.
AS the head emerges the hunter
usually approaches apoplexy but he
is restrained by common sense.
While he may kill the animal at
this time, providing he is capable
shot, chances are that the dead
chuck will fall back into the bur-
row and be lost. Also crippled
animal might make safety in the
turrow only to die slowly-a chance
that every good sportsman guards
against,
Now that the woodchuck has
gained the outside of the burrow,
the hunter is free to shoot on occa-
sion. Tie best time for the squeez-
ing of the trigger comes when the
animal sits up for his regular look
around. At this time he presents the
hest target to the rifle wielder than
at any other time. In case the
beast does not sit up enough to give !
the waiting gunner a clean shot, a
low whistle often brings the de-
sired result.
The gun used for woodchuck |
hunting should be of fairly heavy |
calibre as the chuck has a thick |
skin that makes the average .22 |
rifle useless. Sbotguns also are I'M
certain as thickly sprinkled wood
chuck has been known to make his
burrow. The lest weapon for wood
chuck hunting is a '32 or even a
5000. Lately enthusiasts Of the
sport have gene in for telescope
