AUTUMN MONTHS are the best months for surf casting for channel bass. Especially is this true down on Hatteras and Ocracoke Island. Each year large numbers of New York and northern anglers go to these localities in the Fall for the surf casting. Chan nel Bass taken from the surf in the autumn usually run larger in size than those taken during th? spring and summer months It is doubtful however, if anyone will equal the record catch made by F. A. Mitchell-Hedges of Hatteras in the surf there during the early summer. His fish weighed over 65 pounds which is not only a record for the year todate but also an all time re cord. He stands a mighty gool chance of winning the national cham pionship in channel bass class thi.i year. CARO-GRAPHICS by Murray JohzsJr DO YOU KNOW YOUR STATE?

COMMUNITY blueberries, huckleberries, dogwood, wi'.i cherry and weeds are among the food producing plants attractive to the bobwhite quail. Fourteen percent of the food of the bobwhite quail consists of ani mal life, including grasshoppers, weevils, locusts, chinchbugs, cater pillars, squash bugs, cucumber beet les and wireworms, said Becker. The bobwhite mates usually in May and Is.;, a from 6 to 20 eggs, which are hatched in 23 to 24 days. Soon after hatching the young are able to take care of themselves in their new environment, and if everything goes well with the first brood the femtle usually does not lay another set of eegs- . , , , Among the agencies tending to de crease the bobwhite, Becker pointed out, are tis predatory enemies, dis ease, and weather conditions. Some of the piominent enemies of the quail are stray cats and dogs, Cooper's hawk, sharp-shinned hawk, skunk, o'possum, cotton rats, snakes, ticks, redbugs, and red ants. Quail are very susceptible to poul try diseases and cannot be propagat ed successfully near chickens. Quail disease, cocidiosis, and blackhead are among the diseases of the bobwhite. While farmers have no control ov er the weather, Becker stated, thay can provide the quail with food and cover, which will at the same timo help to control soil erosion and build up the fertility of the soil as well as add beauty of the farm.
