Some of those who have the mat- ter in charge are in favor of opening the season for a solid week, others want three open days in one week In November ang three days in the suc- ceeding week, Monday, Wednesday of each week to be shoot- ing days. This latter plan seems to be the most favored for various rea- sons, Among these reasons is the one that more persons would get an opportu- nity to hunt the deer if the shooting season were extended over two weeks. If all of the shooting is to be done some hunters may not be able to get away from their regular duties at that particular time. Another and an important consid- of persons who into the woods. In the to be at all wafe to be in the woods working on days when persons are privileged to hunt deer and it would be hardly fair to such workers to oblige them in the interest of their safety to keep out of the woods for a whole week at a time, to the injury of their business. When asked about the matter, Mr. Davis said that the claims that have been filed against the state on account of geer damage and allowed during the past two vears amount to approx- imately $6,300. The appropriation by the legislature of 1811, for meeting deer damage costs was only $2,000, 80 the deficlency is in excess of $4,000 The amount of damage dome by deer is constantly increasing, a particular reason why the open season is being so strongly urged.
