vwcmM ISTRIKEiP ^riGARETTG^y Notice this delicious . ' flavor when you I j smoke Lucky Strike — it's sealed in by ; ! the toasting process The mallard, the ksng of DUCKS . By the Editor Great is the Mallard- It is the most cosmopolitan of all ducks, either wild or tame. It is the chief duck ' of the world- In its wild state it inhabits the greater part of the earthIt "is readily amenable to domestication; it is the progenitor of most do. - mesticated ducks and its offspring • have followed civilization into every civilized country. The Pekkin duck, the mallard -in albino form, Ts the V chief revenue producer in many a poultry plant in the United States, and is one of the most important food supplies of the Chinese Empire- It in the principal and most to be relied upon water fowl for the preserves of America and Europe, and its-import-ance and value Constantly increase. The head of , -the male is green; speculum, punplishrolue; bill, olivegreen; legs, orange; eyes, brown. The female closely resembles the Black Duck, but is llgnter colored, - more brownish, and the speculum».or wing patch, is always bordered with white- The Mallard is a handsome bird indeed, and few water fowl approach or surpass him in gaity of raiment. The note of the Mallard is a nasal "quack," often inpklly repeated when they are feeding- Their food con. sists chiefly of tender grasses -and mollusks. These they' usually get by "tipping up," that is, reaching the bottom of the shallow water without going entirely under the surface. They also vipil meadows and grain fields and rice fields for foo'cl. Its fields and nee neias lor loou. us
nest is of grass, lined with feathers, j and concealed in tufts of grass nearjj the water. The six or ten eggs arc buffy or olive-greenish. , The Mallard breeds over most of : Alaska, West British America, . east j to Hudson Bay, in Greenland, also | south to Lower California, sotunern . New. Mexico, Kansas, Missouri,! southern Indiantf, and (rarely) 1111 Maryland- hi winters from i|§r Al-I eutian Islands, central Alaska, Wy- 1 oming, Nebraska, southern. Wiscon.j siri, northern Indiana, Ohio, Maryland j and sometimes in N'ova ,Scotia, south I to- Mexico, the lesser Antilles and : Panama- In rare cises ;'t is found in Hawa.ii and" Bermuda. ■ Th? Mallard is the most numerous j duck in the west but is\ growing scarce , in New England, -growing 'more numerous -southwardIt is a -noisy bird, swift in flying arid a strong swimmer. It is so hardy that some remain in swift run- 1 *ning unfrozen 'stream's of Alaska .ill I , winter. It uses great care -for jts own safety, but does not develop the great caution of the wily Black Duck-1 ., It usually feeds by dabbling, with its head under water, ■ but' can dive if there is needThe Mallard comes well to decoys, ."particularly live ones- As they come .to the decoys they are a -fair mark, but, in passing overhead they try the skill of the quickest gun- \ ~ Note — Next week, The Wilson cr" .

Pace ). with one of the long poles stili tn *. place. One of the crtiss timbers, had the cross thigart and the "knees", of the missing boat lathed fast to j it. -showing that it had" been Uteraliv _ . turn from the otlfbr craft. How ' muiy of those, poles they were bring- ! ing in is not. yet known, but five' |T' have been .accounted for. '. : * Members of the crew stato that it was. only, at irregular intervals dur- 1 i ing Mflntlay that they could -ses any'; (iistance to sea owing" to the. mist and l" hazy condition of the weather: The pjjtmd, at which the ill fated crews , •n'ere working is off Amnion, about 2 !■ miles and approximately seven miles from Hereford Inlet. If the accident .occurred at the pounds they could x not have been seen from Hereford, but had it been clear, the boats could j r< have been seen .soor. after they start- j ed dbwn the coast.
It seems that those who knew they : were out made no report -because it 1 often happens that engine trouble or low tide will hold the craft outside i after they were due at the inlet, and : as the afternoon wore on the watchers kept expecting the boats to show . up .at any minute. Again, it sosne- 1 times happens that the crews finding 1 that it is too great a risk' to enter the treacherous Hereford Inlet at' low ' tide will continue to Cold Spring and come in the deeper and safer inlet.. - This would have made lie boata lateWhile Augustus Hilton feels .from his statements that the Hereford Inlet Guards should have been iriore on the guard, others state that the crew should have been notified riroch earlier in the Afternoon, and that, ' had the engine of , the boat responded j at once to Hie efforts to' start it; [ it was so late that the search had to • be made in the night in any case ! and" the chances of finding any of the ■ lost crews was minimized. ! Searchers for the bodies of _ the j crews are constantly patrolling the r beach and have been since Monday i. night- Three trawlers worked all j day Wednesday dragging the chant neis inside of off-lying bars of the \ beach front,' but- with no success up | '• to the present timet The second of the two boats was i I located and brought through Cold e Spring Inlet to Ottens Harbor WedI I nesday afternoonJ , Tl)e fact of the story as given by r Mr- Augustus Hilton, president of 1 of*lhe Consolidated Fisheries Coml. j pany, is a comprehensive viqw point ' of the various stories related among ' the fishing men who are friends of the drowned, is as follows: •"Monday forning, about six o'clock, Capt Hanson left Anglesea with two r' fishing boats lashed together, for the s purpose of pulling pound poles- Asnearly as can be ascertained he had had his load pulled and was coming I in and came on Hereford Inlet Bar I with the pound poles about one I o'clock, Evidently a heavy sea took I them and filled down and the boat f drifted on to shallow water and broke II in pieces. The only thing to do then J was to get the life preservers and 1 if the Coast Guard people had been | on the job would no doubt have been I able to save them as-ffiey are comJ- ing ashore this morning with life preI servers on them and the man in the I lookout on the Coast Guard Station I should have been able to have seen I them." | Capt- A- Hansen and a crew of ten | men left Anglesea Monday morning || at six o'clock to go to the pounds I of thjJ Marine Fsiheries Company I and. pull the poles for the wither. J Two thirty-five foot skiffs were lashed • together at stem and stern and
eight seventy-foot poles were piled between, the two boats lengthwise Since there is no living witness of the accident; what really happened iviutievcc'De known. However, the theory- given oqt by those following the sea is that the boats had started back with their load and reached the Bar at Hereford Inlet. Because f the great weight on the boat and the extreme shallowness, of the water at this point it is eiident that iho lx>at struck the bar and the Breakers bore down orithe craft From all indication the accident happened about noon as "< a watch found on Charles Stephenson, one of the three bodies found, -was stopped at 12-19, which would indicate the time the men entered the water- At about three .o'clock Augustus Hilton, of (he Marine Fisheries Company, became anxious aboift the boats and phoned the coast guard stations at Stone Harbor and Avalou to see if they could see anything of the boatsThey reported no boats in s'irht, the heavy mist that hung over the ocean dur tig the late afternoon Monday no do 't prevented them Tom seeing the tli -aster. At seven-thirty .Monday evening the first real evidence of the disaster appeared when one of the boat - was washed i shore at Anglesea . Tues- .. day morhing the other boat"' could be -| seeh on the bar about one-half a mile ' from , the shore- arljg Tuesday I morning -the" bodies of the three men were found' and Immediately- identh I fied by friends and relatives at the ' Cjty Mqrgue. All three of the men on life belts and "their hoots were -off, which indicated that they I had fought hard to save themselves. . i but the heavy tide an 1 the rough sea ! beat them to death- ' About six o'clock an alarm was ! turned in to the Anglesea Coast I Guard Station' No.- 133, and had the - men been able to put- right out it is ;! possible that even bden some of- the ll-rnSn might .have been saved. Hnw- : -ever, it was not .until after nine ; "o'clock that the) boat was launched 1 and men started the search. , Capt. L Hansen, aged 45 yearsI j Lived- alone in small cottage on ■ Chestnut avenue.
