Two Hunting Stories.
W. F. McKinney, ranger, of Potters
Mills, gives the Reporter the following
stories in connection with the close of
the hunting season :

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”

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.

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
