Deer don't shed their Horns.

Mr.. Editor: A correspondent Of the
Georgia Educational Journal, residing in
Hyde Co, N. c., answers the question,
what becomes Of the deers horns By say
ing that all deers on shedding their horns
bury them. But the idea tha, all male
deer shed their horns is certainly delu-
sion
Twenty years ago, in the portion of Lou
isiana in which resided, deer were very
numerous. Nearly every farmer owned
at least one tame deer some owned halt
a dozen. know several instances of their
living to the age Of ten years, and never
knew one to shed his horns. have con-
versed often with Arkansas hunters upon
this subject, and | never knew one to up
hold the argument that deer shed their
horns.
My hounds were once chasing my tame
deer, and in jumping through a pair Of
bars he broke one of bis horns short off
Twas three years after this before he was
killed, but his horns never grew out again.
Once year, there grows down over
their horns which seems to annoy them
very much and in the western forest l
have often seen them rubbing their horns
among the bushes and brambles, which
seemed to give them relief. This skin
soon sheds of, and many old hunters term
this shedding their horns. Hence the be.
lief so prevalent that deer shed their horus
annually.
The instance mentioned by the Journals
correspondent is a very remarkable one,
and doubt if similar occurrence will
ever be witnessed.
Iaave killed deer in several of theSouth.
ern and Western States, California and
South America. and never have seen
large male deer without large horns. Re.
