In spite of ammunition being scarce
there was much target practice Fri
day, the day before the deer season
opened. Some of the farmers from
out east said it sounded like "sec-
ond 'front.' was opened there that
day. Very few deer were brought in
the first day but they have been
rolling in fast ever since. The season
closed last night. During the five
days many from the southern part
of the state have been here to enjoy
the sport. The old Rasmussen pool
hall, which has been closed for some
time, took on the appearance of a
hotel as no less than II hunters
"bunked" on the floor there.
