Show TO HOLD BiG RABBIT SHIM NEAR VERKON Thirty Gunners Go to Rush Valley Next Sunday i and Monday. Arrangements have been marie with the ranchers at Vernon to handle thirty Salt Lake seatter-g-im shooters on Sunday Sun-day and Monday, February IT and IS. Mr. Plant of Vernon retorts that tho :.icka have returned to t!ie valley again this season in Iar;re numbers and are a tain destroying fruit trees and hay stacks. 1 The Vernon people will furnish the shooters, free of charge, with lunch and ! dinner on Sunday and breakfast and 1 lunch on Monday, and see that each ' hunter is provided with a feather bed on 1 Sunday night. They also will furnish sieishs for the shooters. 1 Owing- to the congested condition of 1 f he railroads throughout the country and 1 the lack of motive power it is impossible to set a special train for a shoot this 1 year, and the Western Arms annual rabbit rab-bit drive will not take place, but George Johnston of that store, who mad1 three 1 Li ins to Rush valley last year with from twelve to twenty shooters, was able to dlstrlbu te to the It Iake poor from ihp three shoots some 3 rabbits. I The plans for the shoot on the 17th and 1 th have been carefully made by Mr. Plant of Vernon and Fred A. Fry rear and Mr. Johnston of Salt Lake. The thirty shooters will be required to register with ; Johnston at the Western Arms, as only 1 tins number can be handled at Vernon. The only expense a tt ached to this si-. cot will be the railroad faie. The train leaves the O. S. I., station at 7:30 a. m. Sunday and returns to Sa't Lake at 4 p. m. Monday. |
