Three members of the Duncannon Hunting Club captured deer near their camp on Snow Shoe Mountain, Centre county. Ben Beers shot an 8 point, 140 pounder, Pat Arter a 6 point, 130 pounder, and Harry Hopkins, a 6 point, 130 pounder. The Stansfield brothers, whose phenomenal record during the past several years included the bagging of four deer last year, already have two kills to their credit this season. Harry Stansfield killed a 9 point, 150 pound buck in Clarks Valley and Paul Stansfield shot an 8 point, 100 pound buck in Potter county.

Ray Morris also shot a porcupine in Lycoming county. i and misgiving by other members of the plain sect here. At least one church dignitary, Bishop Jacob Stoltzfus, of near Leacock, is apprehensive that the sandy soil of St. Mary's county, Maryland, will not yield like the rich fields of home.

Some prominent laymen agree with him. "We wish them success," Bishop Stoltzfus said, "but I cannot say we all agree the move is a wise one. I am afraid the sandy soil wil need fertilizer every year." The problem of finding new land for young Amish families could be better met, Bishop Stoltzfus said, by buying farms in Leb ancn or Berks county, nearer the powerful settlement of some 3000 members of the faith in Eastern Lancaster county. But the patriarch to whom the migrating families look with confidence is Stephen F. Stoltzfus, bearded 74 year old clergyman and farmer, father of three of the men whose families will live below the Mason Dixon Line.

Land in Lancaster county has become too expensive, he believes, and the peak of intensive cultivation has been reached. "We are going back a few steps by moving," he admits. "But down there our people can live more in a simple way. Up here there is coming to be too much time devoted to worldly things."
