Sportsmen do not regard the “ring-neck” favorably #s a game bird, while farmers claim What “they interfere with domestic whickens and that they are harmful to rowing crops. A farmer residing ear Wessington, S. D., filed a claim against the Fish and Game depart- ment of that state of $5,000 for dam- ave alleged to have been inflicted by “ring-necks” to his corn crop. He claimed these birds dug up the corn as fast as he could sow it on a field of 120 acres. Whatever may the merits of the general indictment against the Chi- mese pheasants, the writer is of the ion that they are not attractive ‘as a game bird, and that they should tbe cultivated North Dakota as show birds only. We are likely to ‘have plenty of them in the wild state, ‘in any case, as they are steadily mov- fing northward from South Dakota, and are now quite plentiful in the southern tier of counties in North ta. Quite different is the attitude of our sportsmen toward the Hungarian ttridge. Here is a game bird in the st sense of the wi —dainty, quick; t ‘on the wing, elusive in its flight, and ch menced to im port these birds from Hungary three years ago and to distribute them in well. sections of the e. Both the *‘elimate and the topography of North Dakota is said to he very like those of Hungary, so there was every reason to believe that these birds would do well here. Experience thus far has vhown that this belief is well founded. Reports from various sections in which Hungarian partridges were placed indicate that they are thriving and multiplying rapidly. Congestion of Ducks When it comes to wild ducks:—not ‘so good. In large areas of the state practically all sloughs have gone dry. Crops were sown last spring in the ed'of Lake Irwin, north of Churchs Ferry; Lake Hester and Smokey lake fin McHenry county are bone dry, and similar reports come from other sec- tions, The result is that our local lucks ‘have become congested in re- ions where water is still available. fn. the Turtle ‘mountains, for example, ‘every lake and pond is fairly swarm- ing with ducks and ducklings—mal lards, redheads, canvasbacks, pintails, nwinged teal and other varicties. Boe most of us will have to travel Tong distances for our duck shooting this fall. as Fish Culture That there are many bodies of water In North Dakota capable of support- Aig large stocks of game fish there need be no doubt.
