Show illilllllll!ll!lllll!IIIII!llllllllllll!H 9 jbuUtG, But 9 Jte&id. . . By SECOND-GUESSER Duck hunters have been meeting meet-ing with "spotty" success since the opening of the season on Friday of last week. A few . hunters bagged their limits the first day, with most of the hunters hunt-ers returning with two or three birds. Some "expers" even checked in limit kills two or three days. Hunting along the Minersville canal was very good the first few days but now it's only the very early risers who come home with birds. The reservoir y has plenty of ducks and geese , swimming around, but they're smart .enough to stay a long way from shore. Some nimrods are getting good kills in the fields in the mornings and late afternoons. after-noons. Already the red-shirted and red-hatted men, women and children are headin' for the hills for the deer hum which opens Saturday. Reports from the Beaver mountains say the deer have been drifting down from the high peaks for more than a week, and shooting should be good in the Mineral Mountains north of Hiway 21, and in the pass area south of Minersville. Our Milford Valley Edition, scheduled to be published Oct. 27th, will not be published until Thursday, Nov. 3rd. The cloudy weather made it difficult to get get sufficient pictures and we are postponing the edition another an-other week so that we may make this first annual Milford Valley Edition a complete pictorial pic-torial record of the agricultural and dairying activities of the valley. Good news from Logan: Announcement of editors and ' assistant editors of the "Buzzer," "Buz-zer," yearbook of the Utah State Agricultural College, was made recently. It will be of interest in-terest to Milford residents to learn that John C. Carlisle Jr., son of former County Superintendent Superin-tendent John C. Carlisle, is to be associate editor. Lucile Smith, daughter of Mayor and Mrs. E. L. Smith, was named, section editor for the Administration Adminis-tration Section. Steve: Please change the mailing ad-- ad-- 1 dress on our copy of your most illustrious gossip sheet to 237 South Washington Ave., Whit-tier, Whit-tier, Calif. The spare , bed is up and the welcome mat is out for all our Milford friends, so come down when you can find time and we will re-decorate, the town. Jim and Vivian Muncey. Latest "strike" in the mining area was made a few days ago by young Doug Denny. Kicking around out west he ran into a nice piece of lead-silver float, and began picking around above the spot where he found the sample. In some iron stain in an old wagon road he uncovered what appears to be a nice ore bady, and after leasing the Day Dawn and Oneida claims, began sinking a shaft. We understand a few large mining concerns are interested in Mr. Denny's holdings . Mrs. Sheral Carter of Minersville Miners-ville is a proud lady these days, after returning from the elk hunt near Nephi with a 3-point buck that weighed more than 480 lbs. "I can't apply for another elk permit for two years," Mrs. Carter said, "but who cares that's an awfully big hunk of meat." While we're on the hunting subject, won't some dead-eye take Roldo Turner a nice venison ven-ison roast? His address is the Milford Hospital and probably will be until after the deer season sea-son is over . Roldo was returning to town a little over a week ago, ' from South Milford, and in a cloud of dust that obscured the road the pickup truck he was driving driv-ing collided with a large potato truck. Roldo suffered severe injuries and won't be doing any hunting for a good many weeks. |
