Across the river from Nebraska City is a slough 

 about four miles in length winch is a regular wa- 

 tering place for the Wood Duck. 

 Some of the local hunters have 'got on to' the 

 habits of this duck and go after then with deadly 

 effect, one hunter killed -25 in one evening. 

 The Wood Duck is very methodical in its habits* 

 it generally comes to the slough just at twilight. 

 The ducks have prospered unusually well with 

 their young this year, it is about time, however, 

 for tae hunter 6 to begin their slaughter and but 



few biids will be left by fall.
