^ to Marksmen—Two Teams
in 45-Day Contest.
O’Neill, Neb., March 4.—Infested
with thousands of crows which have
fled from the guns of crow hunters
In neighboring counties* and from
South Dakota, which pays a bounty
on the pests. Holt county will stage
an Intensive war of extermination
lasting for 45 days and starting
March 15.
The county Board of supervisors
lias appropriated a purse of $300 and
for the big hunt the county has been
divided into two equal districts, the
east and the west. The dividing line
is the range line between ranges 12
and 13 which runs one and one-half
miles, east of Emmet. Two hundred
dollars of the reward will go to the
district killing the most crows dur
ing the period, and $100 to the losing
side. In addition the merchants of
eueh of the nine towns will offer
individual prizes to the hunters. Sub
stantial side bets already are being
made on the outoome. Nonshooters
are subscribing money for shotgun
shells and in addition to the purse
and prize offered each hunter will be
given a loaded shell for each crow
head he presents to tils precinct cap
tain.
James McPharlin of O'Neill is cap
tain of the east district of the county
and Mose Campbell of Atkinson of
the western one. The executive com
mittee for the eastern district is M.
F. Kirwan, chairman; James Davis,
,T. M. Hunter, W. E. Conklin and D.
rc. Peters. All are of O'Neill. Here
tofore the county has been kept fairly
free of crows through the efforts of
the county game protective associa
tion, which stages spring and fall
drives but it is unable successfully to
cope with the influx of crows seek
ing refuge from the scatter guns of
Holt county’s neighbors.
