ground underneath brush or logs or grass and it is easy for the nest to get filled with water and drown the I young. . Quail is vary plentiful in the stale It is possible more plentiful than it i has been in recent years, Mannfeld . said, especially in the hills in southern Indiana An illustration of this fact Is a report of a hunter that he found forty nests in one small field in Daviess county. It is quite abundant in the hills of Brown county. Duck is beginning to show up in the northern part Os the state, especI tally on the lakes and in the lage region. Mannfeld said. Hunters report. however, that they are very shy on some occasions, even refusing to be attracted by decoys. Coots are becoming scarcer, it is reported. Not as many have been seen in the lake region of the state I this season as formerly. Many wild geese have been seen in flocks flying high toward the south. They are hard to shoot and very few ’ hunters have reported bagging any so far this season. Fur-bearing animals are plentiful. Hunters have been successful in shooting and trapping skunks, foxes, and raccoons. Farmers have reported tfiat foxes have been rather bothersome in stealing their chickens, i Mink is more scarce than usual, how- ' ever. The scarcity of this fur-bearer is attributed to the great amount of drainage of land. 1 o Winona Minister Resigns To Give Time To Writing Winona Lake, Ind., Novi 20. —In order that he may devote his entire time to writing a number of books.
