Needlew to say, nn motion was put to the meeting on this suggested change in the open season with no 1-tup by rural gun- ncrs. . o o 0 This attitude on the part of hunters in the affected arcs is passing strange in view of the fact that City buniers. at their own expense. heavily stocked this section a feiv years back with ring-necked pheasants nurcbased in Janesviile.
