Rfèfp» T H E D I L L O N E X A M I N E E Take Some , Leave Some “If every hunter who goes afield this year will give some serious thought to next season’s game sup ply and then take some action in an effort to enhance it, the prob lem of future hunting would be well on its way to solution.” This statement by Kelly DeBusk, Oklahoma state game and fish di rector, contains a lot of verbal meat and his advice to “take some ac tion is particularly timely. Many sportsmen would sincerely like to follow through in doing something about the future game supply, but all too few know just what steps they can, as individuals, take in approaching this goal. Here are DeBusk’s suggestions: “Don’t shoot a covey down to the last bird. “Don’t set the limit as a MUST every time yon go hunting. “Stop when you’ve had a fair ‘amount of sport. “Don’t return time and again to the same area just be cause you had good shooting there yesterday. “Wild game,” the game director points out, “is a natural renewable crop. All crops, whether they come from the soil or are hatched from eggs, have to be planted and culti vated if the harvest is to be suc cessful. Leaving some game birds as next season’s seed is one way to insure good sport for the future. This is one way of planting next year’s crop. Protecting it from both human and other predators and seeing that pleny of natural food is provided are two important forms of cultivating the game crop you have planted. “Game management,” DeBusk continues, “is not. such a compli cated science that it cannot be prac ticed by individual sportsmen. In terpreted in simple terms it is merely the provision of ideal habi tat and adequate protection.” A A A Happy Combination Of course the duck season hasn’t long to run, but the little portable heater shown hère should be a natural for thou sands of fishing shacks that will dot our northern lakes and rivers this winter.

The seven birds were found to have chest injuries, seemingly from flying into tree branches, and one bird was found with a small twig embedded in its flesh. One immature female had a severe head-scalping. One bird was found with an acorn impaled on its bill and a “wear” mark showed that the nut had been there a long time. The bird managed to eat in spite of the im pediment, as its crop contained other acorns. Weight of Fish Many are the times when an angler who has made a particular ly good catch would like to know what his fish weighed stream-side, but has no scales. Here's a way that the weight of the fish can be closely approximat ed: Just measuring the length and by the square of the girth and di vide the result by 800. For example, a fish 18 inches long and 10 inches in firth would, under the formula, weighs 2.35 .pounds. V I R G I L B y L e n Klei» SUNNYSIDE by Cicute S.

Dead Aim An American visitor to England had just returned to his native United States with a slight British accent and numerous stories of his travels. He was relating some of his experiences to a group of friends when one of them asked if he had done any shooting. “Oh, yes,” he replied, “I did quite a bit of shooting. I was most successful, though, when I shot at Lord Baddleton’s county seat.” “Didja hit it?” asked another eagerly. Force of Hab&t After finding a vacant seat in the train the little man with the meek demeanor slumped into it and soon fell asleep. He evidently hadn’t noticed the parrot perched on the shoulder of the man next to him but the latter eyed the newcomer with mixed emotions. After considerable deliberation and frequent shiftings of weight from foot to foot the parrot de cided on attack. Balancing him self precariously on his owner’s shoulder he leaned over and nipped the little man’s ear. It was just enough to wake him up. “Yes, .dear,” he said softly “I’m coming.” “The unprecedented incidence of infantile paralysis during the summer just past calls for in creased alertness against the pos sibility of even greater attacks by this dread disease. Exhausted funds must be replenished and all promising means for wiping out the scourge must be explored. The March of Dimes affords a democratic way for, all Americans to join in the fight against a com-, mon. enemy.” —The Hon. W.
