FOREST AND STREAM. 



New Hampshire— Nashua, July 11.— The outlook for 

 woodcock would be better if a few lawless pot-hunters 

 would not hunt them until the open season begins Aug. 

 1st ; however, the grounds are now watched and sports- 

 men who are willing to abide by the law propose to make 

 it hot for those who" break it, ' Webb. 



New YonK—Hornellsville. July 20.— Two doers were 

 seen last week feeding right in the Tillage. J. O. F. 



New York — White Plains, July 21. — Woodcock are 

 very plentiful, and I hope they will stay with us until 

 August 1. I have not heard of a bird being shot, and in 

 my opinion the law is generally respected. You can add 

 my testimony to yours, that I almost positively know 

 that woodcock and quail will raise two broods if the season 

 is favorable. G. W. BasSFORD. 



Pennsylvania.— HolUdaysburgh, July 15. — First day 

 woodcock hunting with Patrick Burk ; out three hours 

 and bagged forty-two birds ; very large and plump. 



S. Fleischer. 



OHIO. — Wauseon, Ohio. July 18, 1879. — Woodcock 

 shooting in Ohio has opened with plenty of birds. Yester- 

 day Squire Brailey and I bagged 22 before noon on the 

 Maumee river, and then quit because we had enough. 

 We shot over Frank Shuman's pointer "Duke", the best 

 dog for all kinds of game I ever saw. He never flushes 

 a bird and is as cool as the coolest of the setters. The in- 

 dications are that we shall have plenty of quail this year, 

 but our foolish law shut us out until next year. Grouse, 

 ruffed, will also be plenty this fall. H. H. Handy. 



Tennessee — Savanah July 15. — The outlook for quail 

 shooting this fall is unusually good. The "bob whites" 

 are whistling everywhere, and owing to a dry June, 

 numerous broods are reported. Will. 



Penetration. — Gataidisa, Pa., June 24. —Sir: Be- 

 low please find a pattern for consideration. W. H. Baker 

 & Go's fifty dollar. 10-bore gun : 31 drs. Dittmar powder: 

 li oz. No. 7 American shot: 40 yards at 30 in. circle. No. 

 pellets in. circle 326. Just one pellet less than the num- 

 ber contained in the charge as given in Forest and 

 Stream, equally distributed with excellent penetration.
