The Duck Hunt (1912)

The duck hunting expedition on the marshes surrounding the Great Salt Lake of Utah, is one of the most remarkable picture presentations that may be well imagined. The picture is educational in the sense that it depicts in detail the methods employed in this sporting industry. We see the cutting and arranging of the material used in making the fluid. The making of the fluid is itself a most interesting proceeding, but to the sportsman there's a feature which this picture portrays that is peculiarly fascinating, and that is the remarkable bagging that comes to the party working in this expedition. One of these gentlemen is Mr. Vincent Davis, a world's expert, who holds the much envied record. A world-beater of 142 birds for a half hour's shooting.
