The second quarter found the
Indians back in h e ir scoring

The crowd only saw two more
plays until the Indians again hit
pay dirt.
Edward Conway picked up a
loose Sunburst tumble on the re-
finer 20 and scored the third Red
Skin touchdown. Again the point
was good as Billedeaux threw to

Crop Survey
Under Way On
Reservation

That the livestock and sheep
industry on the Blackfeet Reser-
walton may be armed with pro-
per statistical information as to
the quantity of feed that will be
available during the coming win
ter, the Tribal Council and the
Indian Extension Service are TAX
ing inventories through field
men, who have been at wor k
during the last few days.
With winter conditions being
anything but practicable, the
industries, especially in the light
of circumstances last win t e r,
stand to know about how much
adversely their stock can stand
and the quantity and availability
Of feed, should there be a winter
as rigorous as the last one.
The surveys should be complet-
ed in a few more days, since an
early spell of bad weather SINH
liar to that which occurred a year
ago next W e e k and which was
the opening of the most severe
and prolonged one in history,
could defeat the purpose.
With already an unprecedented
spell of winter last month, any
thing can happen from now on.
However, as whole. Reserva-
ton agriculture is now enjoying
certain compensations-for in
stance, a recent chain of days Of
perfect autumn weather that is

A crop survey of the state has
it that production this year will
exceed last years output and al
so be we'll above the average
production for the previous de-
cade. There will be more hay in

Duck Season To
Open Tues. Noon
For35Days

montana open e II on
ducks and geese will begin next
Tuesday at noon, with prospects
OF heavy turnout of hunters in
Glacier County, haunts of water
fowl at this season of the year.
Besides hunting license, hunters
must procure and have in their
possession the so-called duck
stamp while on hunting trips.
Local hunters may procure the
stamp at the postoffice, the cost
being one dollar. 1t must be
available for the inspection of
wardens or federally-authorized
inspectors.
This week Kenneth F. Roahen,
U. S. Management Agent, is in
this section on an official tour in
the interests of wildlife well
fare.
While in Browning this week,
he urged that hunters not for
get to have the duck stamp in
their possession while hunting.
He pointed out that failure to do
so would place them liable to
federal fine of not to exceed $500
or 4 Jail sentence not to exceed
six months, or both. Proceeds of
the sale of the stamps are used,
he said, by the Fish and Wildlife
Service, Dept. of the Interior,
for the care and perpetuation of
wild ducks and geese and other
protected waterfowl.
Elsewhere in the Chief appears
a copy of the daily opening and
closing hours of shooting, which
will continue until November "a
a stretch of 35 hunting days.
:, Under the law. the daily bag
limit of ducks is four, and the
possession limit not to exceed
eight after the first day. The
daily bag limit on geese is four.
with four also as the possession
limit.
While an abundance of geese
IS not apt to get the average
hunter in trouble with the law,
it is none-the-less important for
him to know what he can legally
take.
The law provides that his bag
include Ell t h er one Canadian
goose or one white fronted goose
: and three snow geese or brant.
, In other words, one dark colored
! goose and three light colored
geese.
Local dealers, while b e i n z
pretty well supplied with shot
gun ammunition, have but little
for rifle hunters.
With the big game season hav-
: ing opened October Is. deer and
: elk hunters are availing them
selves or every possible cart
