JOSEPHINE COUNTY. 



Big catches of steelheads are re- 

 ported all along Eogue Eiver. 



* * * 



Clyde Walker caught six steel- 

 heads in the Eogue Eiver which 

 weighed 41 pounds. 



KLAMATH COUNTY. 



Duck shooting has been rather 

 poor up to date, except for the first 

 few days of the season in Klamath, 

 owing to the northern ducks not 

 having arrived yet. With stormy 

 weather the Klamath marshes will 

 be alive with the feathered tribe. 



LAKE COUNTY. 



The movement of the mule deer 

 toward their winter feeding grounds 

 in the Deschutes Game Eeserve is 

 reported from northern Lake County, 

 although the majority will not be 

 on the desert before the heavy 

 snows. The greater number at pres- 

 ent are in the Winter Eidge, Mt. 

 Hagar and Yamsay Mountain dis- 

 tricts. 



LANE COUNTY. 



Dr. Wood and J. B. Hills, of Oak 

 Eidge, bagged a 5-point buck on 

 Salmon Creek which weighed 160 

 pounds, dressed.

The upper Willamette and Mc- 

 Kenzie Eiver country have been 

 sought by many sportsmen on ac- 

 count of the variety and abundance 

 of big game. Deer, bears, cougars, 



wolves and bobcats are abundant, 

 while the streams teem with fish. 



Frank Warner, of Oak Eidge, 

 killed a large 5-point buck out of a 

 bunch of five bucks on Salmon 

 Creek divide. 



LINN COUNTY. 



Among the successful hunters in 

 the Brownsville country may be 

 mentioned George Fetzel, who re- 

 cently returned from a hunt with 

 two bears and two deer. 



* v. * 



Fishing has not been good in the 

 vicinity of Albany during the past 

 month, but no difficulty has been 

 experienced in bagging the limit 

 of five male Chinese pheasants.

Hunting licenses to the number 

 of 213 were issued at Albany in 

 one day during the first part of 

 October. 



MARION COUNTY. 



Data collected by Deputy Game 

 Warden Mount, at Silverton, shows 

 that 81 sportsmen in one week killed 

 a total of 261 Chinese pheasants, or 

 an average of a little over three 

 birds to the man. These hunters dur- 

 ing the same period killed 13 quail 

 and four grouse. 



MORROW COUNTY. 



Fishing is fairly good in Willow 

 and Rhea Creeks, though the water 

 in both streams is low at present.
