Hunters Many of the Local People Find the Search for Pheasant Preferable - to Ducks and Geese. From Tuesday's Daily The male residents of the ccm munity and a number of the ladies have been busy in the past two days in the fascinating pheasant hunting that i3 now open through the state and with many bird:? re ported to be seen in the north central part of the state and in the extreme west sections. The unusually mild fall has left the vegetation unspoiled and which furnished much cover for the pheas ants and makes it hard to get full bags of the bird unless dogs are used cr the fortunate hunter can go on a posted farm to seek the birds. The popularity of the pheasant hunting has taken away many that are usually to be found on the rivers and lakes duck and geese shooting as the warm weather has held up the seasonal migration of the wild fowl.
