Looks- Like Twice In A Row For Ducks- lt looks like another ood year for the ducks - - - twice a NW- For ten years. Mother Nature des- troyed ducks by the millions every summer.

It locks to me that United States sportsmen will have to con- trol these pests - chiefly in the States centering upon Oklahoma where they winter. Stubble fires are particularly dan- gerous this summer. Last fall. in straw was heavy and the com ines left veritable jungles in the stubb fields making very attractive nest- ing sites for ducks and upland game . - lug prevented burning before the ducks began to nest. That means much stubble will be burned June; which. in turn. means heavy egg and brccd losses. Anticipating this. We have clrcularized our Koo- mon and farmer groups all through the country pointing out the danger and suggesting how losses can be reduced. This will save millions of dry periods. when is water on the prairie, the ducks go further north to more permanent water.
