McKinney, ranger, of Potters Mills, gives the Reporter the following stories in connection with the close of the hunting season : Was 11 Buck Fever 7—-The McKees Rocks hunters, located near Potters Mills, wounded a two-point buck, hit. ting him in a front leg. The deer con- tinued on the run toward the stream where one of the best shots in the party stood on a big log about three feet above the water. When the buck came in sight, a quaking of the knees or some similiar ailment caused the hunter to lose his balance and he fell backwards into the creek, the water being about eighteen inches deep. He made quite a splash, the noise of which turned the deer from its course, and shortly after. wards was shot by another member of the party. In response to the question of * Dd you get hurt, Alec?” put to the unfor- tunate hunter, he replied, ** No, but] had to light me pipe again” Hoxey 1x Tree —While hunting red squirrels in ** Pine Hill, ” a woodlot own acl by Edward Allison, of Potters Mills, H. J. Lambert chased a squirrel up a large sugar maple tree. In trying to locate the squirrel, the hunter dis- covgred that the tree was inhabited by bees, which swarmed in and out a large hole in the tree, about thirty feet from the ground. Permission being granted to Mr. Lambert, Reuben Colyer and W, F. McKinney, they cut down the tree, Mr. Allison and others going out to see the fun. After several hours of solid work the big sugar maple, almost four feet across the stump, was felled and blocked open. One of the bees set on Mr. Colyer’s right ear, causing him to perform a number of] stunts that: were amusing to the onlookers, The amount of boney taken out was not large, but all agreed that the fun paid for the trouble. Mr. Allison got a lot of godd wood through the operation. A GEORGES VALLEY. Happy New Year to all, ™ Mr. and Mrs. V. A, Auman, of Centre Hall, spent Sunday at the home of the former's father, P. A.

In recognition of the achievements as an inventor of valuable ordnance equip- ment for the army, Lieutenant Colonel Wallace I. Clay, a graduate of the Pennsylvania State College of the class of 1909, has been promoted to his pres- ent rank from a first lieutenant in one year, He is now chief of the Frankfort arsenel laboratories in Philadelphia, where he is in charge of all experiment. al work for the United States Army Or- dnance Department, Colonel Clay perfected the armor. pier- cing tracer bullet, as well as the incendi- ary bullet, both of which gave the Allied forces marked advantage of their adver. saries in the war.

Feeding the Game Birds During the’ Winter. Joseph Kalbfus, secretary of the Statp Game Commission, in a circular to sportsmen, makes an appeal for the feeding of the wild turkeys, pheasants and quail during the winter months when the natural food supply is cut off by reason of the snow and ice. If local sportsmen are really interested in game perpetuation, they will take some action on Mr, Kalbfus' appeal. Part of his letter says: * * Our non-migratory birds, classed as game, are now free to roam at will inso- far as man is concerned, but each one of these creatures will shortly be brought face to face with a danger so great that man with his gun stands as but a pigmy in comparison, and the name this mighty and overshadowing danger Starvation. Through the cutting away of our beech timber, and the killing of chestnut trees by blight, the greater part of the natural food supply of our wild life has already been taken, What is left will soon be covered by snow and ice, and what will our ground feeding birds such as wild turkeys and quail and ring-neck pheasants do then? Of what avail willbe the law forbidding ht on Sunday or the closed season? To simply exist these suffering children of Nature must have your help. At best many will perish through tion, but if sportsmen « they and should do to help, many saved, and I now write to beg believe in game preservation, the incen- tive to hunting, to at once tal i matter with your locate the flocks of ants, and coveys of grouse an your neighborhood, aud diately to your local Game to the office of the Game Cor Harrisburg, directing where may be found, and we will to care for them ds have in hand a cons can be applied to th rp be glad to use it if you will it may be applied. dent Hunter's License, yor who hunts, have provid plied or to be applied to tection, either game or oth now beg you as individual { do the work that means so much t that you want d your help, because of at our command, mus I implore you to locate ti quickly as possible and write, ” of is inting the starva- 1 lo what can be who wiil those 14 fellow io qur uring the winter Phere Phrough dope and th $ the «li ee ——— Ostrich Farm Sold.
