State Treasurer John W. Robbins,
who has just returned with a hunting
party from Webb county, where they
have been deer hunting, stated yester-
day that he has the best method for
hunting deer. He terms it "a scientilic
method.” *His plan Is not to hunt the
game, bbt to have the deer hunt him.
In order to do this, it is necessary to
attract them, and he does that by
getting the horns of two big bucks and
rattling them in a most vigorous man-
tier. In this way he gets the attention
of the bucks. They come out of their
lair believing that a fierce encounter
is in progress between two bucks. Then
it is that Colonel Robbins gets busy
and usually bags one or two. This
method was worked successfully on
this hunt.
