VERY time sportsmen gather to talk of hunt- ing expeditions, whether for big game or birds, it is always noted that their enthusiasm reaches greatest heights when the talk drifts to our national sport, "duck shooting, " and it is therefore necessary that we give this subject serious thought if we are to preserve and prolong this great sport for future years. During the last few years, and in- cluding the season of 1931, the drought throughout the United States and Can- ada, with the drainage of large marsh areas for commercial purposes, has taken the majority of the breeding grounds away from our waterfowl, and in addition to this menace, the ever- increasing number of hunters, equipped with automobiles, automatic and pump guns with higher powered ammunition, has taken added toll of birds, until to- day it is really a miracle that any birds have been able to survive. Approximately 90 per cent of the wa- ter areas of Montana were dry during the past summer, all of which were formerly great breeding centers, al- though in the early spring a number of these lakes contained a limited amount of water for a short period, to which birds flocked and hatched their young, only to have the ponds dry up before the birds were feathered, and the entire hatch of young birds was lost. Because of these conditions, it was necessary to limit the shooting season of 1931 to 30 days, to try and save a breeding stock for the following year. If possible. On account of the general conditions that followed after the sea- son had been declared, the principal flight did not take place until well after the season opened, and it naturally fol- lowed that the ducks were late in arriv- ing in their trave
