shooting during the past t\7o or three years. 



Biological Survey game officials tell me the season on coots is the 

 same as on duchs and other waterfowl. In some Darts of the country, the sea- 

 son has been "open since Oct. first. In other sections, it will open some 

 time this month. 



The ha^' limit is 25 coots a day, and the open season runs for two 



months . 



And remember; Skin the coot and soak: the meat for several hours in 

 salt water or soda water before you cook it.
