which We hail as the tale of the
year. Truly, strange things can
happen in the woods and fields.
Frank Addison and his brother
Walter were quail shooting in South
Carolina last week. They found a
covey on the roadside. Frank did
not get a shot on the covey rise,
but saw two birds fall. He con-
graduated Walter and was surprised
when Walter claimed he had missed
with both barrels. And sure enough,
there were two dead birds without
shot wounds. In rising, they had
struck telephone wire with their
beaks, ripping the lower mandlbles
almost off. They brought the birds
to Washington so that proof of this
remarkable accident is now reposlng
in Franks deep-freezer.
Complete reports of the number
of deer killed November Is and 1t
in the jefferson and George Wash
ington National Forests were an
nounced this week by the Virginia
Commission of Game and Inland
Fisheries. There were 1889 deer
taken in these two areas this year
compared with 1913 last year. In
commenting on the increased deer
kill, Executive Director l. T. Quinn
recalled that 1,783 deer were planted
In 1898 in the two areas and that
