Artificial Islands in
Barnegat Bring Protest

of the best places along the coast
for ducking, but when the bridge
from there to Somers Point is built
it is likely that ducks will not
alight any longer in that vicinity
That has followed where the auto
mobile has put in an appearance i'll
any large number.
Corsons Inlet is an example of
how the ducks forsake any locality
where the auto appears. Before
the bridge was built by the county
Corson's was one of the best duck
ing grounds in South Jersey but it
is seldom that ducks now alight
there.
The late John Courier, of Cam
den,, who gunned many years ago
along the ocean front of Cape May
county, used to say that duck
could count up to two. He said if
ducks along the surf saw two gun
ners take their places behind a
blind the ducks would move out
beyond the breakers. If one of the
gunnerS left the ducks continued
to remain away evidently knowing
there was a second man who had
remained. If three gunners went
behind the blind and two left the
ducks would return to the shore
apparently believing that all the
gunners had departed

Native hunters for wild fow
along Barnegat Bay have entered {
complaint with the Fish and Game
Commission that New York anC
Philadelphia men are building arti
ficial islands in the bay contrary
to law and if this is permitted there
will soon be a scarcity of game
These artificial islands are made
by the use of pilings and then
meadow sod is used to fill in the
centre. They are generally located
near the feeding grounds of ducks
and geese and, besides violating the
law give the owners an unfair adj
vantage over other gunners.
The law that is being violated by
the artificial island says that it
shall be unlawful for any person
to gun for ducks and geese at a dis,
lance of more than 100 feet from ice
or meadow bank F." Most of the ar
tificial islands are built much be
yond the 100 feet as specified in
the law.
The owners of these islands have
tried several times to have the law
changed but the native gunners
have succeeded in blocking any such
effort. Some gunners have urged
that the State take possession OF all
of the islands in the bays and de-
clare them TO be public park land
and to give all gunners the right
to gun on them.
Ducks are not as plentiful along
the coast as is usual at this time OF
the year and this is said to be large
ly due to the warm weather. For
decade Beasley's Point has been one
