Show DUCKS NEAR OGDEN. The .slate game u-nrdeu takes issue with those hunters who, within the last few days, have reported- finding, .along the rivers and sloughs north and, west of Qgdan, evidences of the return of the malady which caused the de,ath of thousands of ducks last year and made duck hunting an uninviting sport. The warden says he lias had his assistants makeU careful investigation in-vestigation from Bear river on 'the north to the Jordan river, the district being covered between last Saturday and Monday morning. Only fifteen dead ducks were found. The living birds were reported re-ported fat and in perfect health. This will be reassuring news to, the many Utnlins who, in the fall of the year, when the game law does not forbid, delight in a tramp along the sloughs on a journey to one of the gun club grounds, there to try their aim in bagging the wild game. The duck grounds near Ogden are a hunter's paradise and among the best hunting grounds in the, United Slates, and a return of the disease of the last two seasons would prove a disappointment to hundreds orMiimvods, lJ(' |
