The old days that we are prone to speak about had their advant- ages. We had lots of game and game that was plentiful then is scarce. now such as Ruffed grouse. rabbits and muskrats. Present day hunting has many decided advant- ages. We have better guns. better ammunition and stubble shooting on goose. Also we have pheasants and HUM. two species of upland game birds unheard of in the old days...blrds that have given us shooting equal to the best on ithe continent. I O 0
