continual rain throughout the- threeday season gord clow and a party or local hunt ers were out trying to fill their freezers but only managed to get cold and wet wc cant help but notice the gradual increase in the number of commercial game farms dur ing the past few years the main game hunted on commerc ial farms is pheasants some commercial operations which are located on lakes along the waterfowl flyways rent blinds and decoys to duck hunters the duck hunting setups are quite reasonable in price and some are operated by the yov- e rn men t the rales on these preserves arc about 4 per day per hunter the pheasant farms are much more expensive since the birds have to be raised on the farm and a guide and dog are provid ed at many the usual fee is around s25 per hunter which entitles him to lour birds extra birds arc 5 each naturally the hunting is no as sporting on a pheasant farm at maple rock as it would be if one was hunl- ing native game birds raised in the wild if hunting on one of these game farms one is almost certain to get his limit if he is able to hit the birds this tact alone removes much of the challenge from ihv spurt since a hunters success depends soley on his ability to shooi and not on outwilling the ttame game farms avill eventually tc the rule rather than the evjmfl a cepiion in huntinjt in luu uivajd enrolment at their vveekly dinner meeting at the
