nal Ieee . . } DUCK TAGGED + each year, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1922 i IN ONTARIO 1S SHOT HERE | History of Bird Brought Down at Long Lake Re- lated to E. G. Erbe i | FROM PROTECTED SPOT E. G. Erbe, who conducts a barber- shop on Fifth street, shot a duck at; Long Lake, about 50 miles southeast of Bismarck on October 16, which bore a tag reading: “Wrjte to box /48, Kingsville, Ontario,” and the date “1941.” The duck was a beauti- ful mallard drake. Mr. Erbe wrote to the address, and yesterday received a letter from Jack Miner, naturalist, telling of the duck’s -history. Kingsville, Ontario, is a little town nestled on the north shore of Lake Erie, due north of est of Detroit, Michigan, The town is several hundred miles east and a considerable distance scuth «i! Bis- marek. In his letter Mr. Miner enclosed a printed statement of his work as a naturalist ‘and tells how he has tagged ducks and of the replies re- ceived. Duck tags ‘have been re- tuthed from 33 states and provi- dences, he says, the furthest south coming from Guydan, Louisana; and from, east to west, from Long Island, New York to Englefield, Saskatche- wan, thus covering an area of about two thousand miles square. He has had tags of wild geese returned from points ranging from’ North Carolina to B@ffinland, and forty- | one from Hudson, Bay. Indians, Es- | kimos and other residents hava taken them to Hudson Bay agents who have sent them. The ducks Mr. Erbe shot was tagged in 1921: Mr. Miner’s printed. statement bears pictures which would excrte the interest of any duck hunter, or lover of wild game. Thousands of “ducks are tshown on a pond on his farm, and other pictures shown a small child feeding young Millards that migrate. and return the follow- ing spring, and another showing a child feeding young pet robins who also migrate but return to the ven. ully 40 percentvof the birds tag- a by Mr, Miner in the fall return in the spring, he says. He has one wild mallard duck, hatched tohim for five springs and has raised four amilies in five summers—two eights and two nines, Mr. Miner says he loves wild game, and thoughtsome may_call him “Strong in beck and weak in mind” he-gets much pleasure out of his life. For the last six or seven years, he says, he has fed during the months of March and April 1, | 000 to 2,000 bushels of ears of corn Appeals to Sportsmen Appealing to sportsmen to pre- serve wild game, Mr. Miner says: “Now, my brother sportsman, please don’t think that I am opposed to shooting a few ducks or geese, but | will you please help us provide for | next year’s crop by turning down | ony opportunity to slaughter? Yes, I know ‘you will ogree with me that at the present day, we should be very considerate of.what we aye doing with the gun, when this one bird, whose ways are as old and as new as the world. give millions of peovle thrilling enjoyment and recreation | to see it alive, when its vall out of | the fair from’ your or my deadly } weanon can only give enjoyment to} one.” | Mr. Erbe believes there is much food for. thourht by North Dakota snovtsmen in the remarks of Mr. Miner. ; | NEW ENGLAND BANKER DIES J. J. Murphey of New England, well known Slope banker, died there suddenly, according to . information received here today.

George RETURN OF YOUNG “MARRYIN’ BURCHES”: ABOVE, BRIDE. BELOW, RIGHT, GOLDIE, RHODA BURCH. ‘By NEA Service Kansas City, Kan., Dec. 6—Early marriage is losing one of its grest- Burches.® : “Times are changing. Maybe it’s better now to wait longer,” says Mrs. Rhoda Burch, whose four mar- ried children wedded before they were 16. Her doubt is aroused by the -fact that Goldie, who wedded last year when 13, is home seeking a divorce, and John, who is 16, and married a 13-year-old girl, is also suing for separation. It was a hard blow to the early marriage theory of Michael and Rhoda Burch, who eloped when Rhoda was 16. It may hold back the marriage of Robert, now 12. Michael Burch, minister and stonemason, \ whose home is also built so it can be used as a chapel Sundays, has considered his children of mariageable age when they got into their “teens.” .
