CROW FEET ——= 

A Nebraska Crow Shoot 
Two Hundred Sportsmen of Madison and Antelope 
Counties Stage a Successful Vermin War 
By) Js. beeea S DRETH 
N the matter of extermination of 
the crow in order to protect the 
game birds of the country and to 
stop to some extent the spread of dis- 
ease among the livestock of the State 
and for the protection of the farm 
crops, Madison and Antelope ‘counties 
have for several years taken the lead. 
The idea has taken the form of con- 
tests between local town organizations, 
composed of local sportsmen, and also 
an annual contest between the sports- 
men of the two counties. These con- 
tests have been staged each year by the 
sportsmen of these two counties of their 
own initiative and without the coopera- 
tion of the State or county officials, and 
all the expense has been borne by the 
individuals interested in the sport and 
the useful occupation of protection of 
the game birds of the State and the 
safeguarding of livestock against dis- 
ease germs which are readily spread by 
crows. 
OME effort has been made to get a 
bounty law passed, but so far the 
legislature has refused to pass such a 
law. The present contest between the two 
counties resulted in exterminating over 
seventeen thousand crows and ended on 
the 10th day of March,1924,with a large 
banquet and dance, staged at Tilden, 
Nebraska, a small city located on the 
line between Madison and Antelope 
counties, which was attended by over 
three hundred sportsmen. The master 
of ceremonies at this feast was Webb 
Rice, of Norfolk, Nebraska, one of the 
best-known attorneys of North Ne- 
braska. Those responding to toasts in- 
cluded Judge Dowling, of Madison; 
It will identify you. 
Jene Huse, owner and publisher of the 
Norfolk Daily News; Lyle Jackson and 
Ralph Kryger, well-known attorneys of 
Neligh, Nebraska; and Fred Gatenby, 
the silver-tongued orator of Clear- 
water, Nebraska. Thus it may be seen 
what class of Nebraska citizens are 
engaged in the fight to protect the 
game birds of the State of Nebraka, 
as well as to furnish some measure of 
protection to the crops and flocks of 
the farmer-folk of the State. You 
know that we in Nebraska realize that 
when we protect our crops and our 
farmers’ interest that we are only pro- 
tecting ourselves, as we are all depen- - 
dant on the farmer and farm products 
for our support, no matter what our 
business relations may be or what line 
of business we are engaged in. 
AROLD HORTON, the “high gun” 
of the hunt, killed nearly three 
thousands crows. We are enclosing a 
photograph of the feet turned in for 
official count. The picture includes an 
“Albino” crow which was killed by 
the Clearwater team. This specimen 
was much admired while on display 
and is quite a curiosity to many of our 
sportsmen, being the first white crow 
they ever saw. The larger cup in the 
picture is the team cup which was 
awarded to the Clearwater team of 
crow shooters for killing the largest 
number of crows taken by a single 
team, having killed nearly six thousand 
crows. The smaller cup was awarded 
to the individual having the largest 
number of feet turned in and went to 
Harold Horton of the Tilden team.
