Time and again liave I tracked Deer into a luiish-jjatch of only ii few acres, yet found it impossible to start them. At such places yon may sometimes start them if yon jiet npon a commandinii' rock and sir there patiently. Som^- times, after five, ten. or tifteen minutes, a Deer can not resist theteni[)tation to take a lietter look at j'oii. or move a little. You may see a pair of liorns appear above the brush, or a long ear or two; or. perhaps, one may be suddenly dis- covered sneaking out (ni one side; or he may break cover at hist, -with a snort and a smash of brush, and go Itounding away in hmg, surging springs; bnt if the cover is good, it is nioi'': .'iy that he will let you sit on that vork until he gets re idy L< move again, tfjward evening. This is tlirt worst trick tliis Deer has. l^ecause yon so rarely know when it is l)eing |)layed on you: and it is so liard to circumvent. Wliere the lirnsh is not too dense and high, a good bird-dog is the most effective ally. A good one can be trained to point a Deer
