April 26, 21 men in San Andreas purchased 58 boxes of shells for $35.00. Of the 12 men from Angels Camp purchased in equivalent proportions, 33 boxes would be purchased and for about $20.00 (computation = $19.80). Or a total of 91 boxes purchased for $55.00. How many of these shells were not used is not known. The number of birds killed last year mounts! The owner of the drug store in San Andreas reported 2000 birds killed last year! The hunter who killed the largest number of birds this year (76) reported he had hunted on "game refuges" [= quail & deer refuge?]. Further evidence that interest in these jay shoots is waning was shown by the fact that approximately as many names of men who did not shoot were on the list compiled as those who did shoot. Some men evidently shot (hunted) all day (5 A.M. to 5 P.M.). Others must have confined their hunting time to a few hours. Birds were brought in to the counting place in burlap sacks, hunting coats, paper bags or any other container at hand.
