Parker's Prairii. There is abundance of grouse on the uplands, ducks and 

 geese on the ponds, ruffed grouse in the thickets, with good woodcock shooting. 

 There is only one objection to Parker's Prairie as a resort for sportsmen ; it is so 

 far fi'om the railroad that one cannot dispose of the game he kills, neither can .t 

 be given away, as every settler can kill at any time (almost in his door yard), all 

 the grouse and ducks he can consume • consequently the killing of game there as 

 a sport degenerates into needless butchery. As a place to breaJc young dogs and 

 spend a few days in luxurious idleness among the hospitable settlers at a mod-
