FOOD FOR LOST MEN.
.an Inst In the woods Of Wisconsin
May Always Find Food by Kill
ing a Porcnpinc.

There is one Wisconsin law which is
nec,,lior Ia the state. 1t is the statute
protecting the hedgehog, or porcuplne'
from the man behind the gun. 1t has
been law practically since Wisconsin
had q legislature, and there has never
heen sn effort to repeal or change IT,
II provides heavy fine or imprlson-
ment for the person who shoots OF
snares q portcupine, and, though u IS
often violated, there is no doubt that
any well-meaning country Justlce OF lne
peace would sock it to cplprit II ne
got chance. The object OF the law IS
found in the nature of the beast Inc
porcupine is the only creature in wiid
s+ate which an unarmed man, lost IN
The vast forests, would be able to cap
ture and kill, if necessary, with his feet.
1t is perpetually preserved as SOFT OF
food supply for those who have wan
dered from the beaten track and pc
come confused in the dim aisles OF the
woods. Nearly half of this common
wealth is 1Linly settled. Such countles
as bayfield,, Ashland, Chippewa ana
Price have few people living IN them.
They are composed for the most part
Of lakes and pine lands. A man lost IN
them might easily starve to death II ne
had no weapon or fish line, but TOT tne
porcupine. So long as these animals
are left in countless numbers there is
M danger of death from lack OF food IN
these woods. The hedgehog is captured
without trouble, because Of two rea-
sons. In the first place it has not the
swiftness to escape; in the second place.
It depends upon its armor OF splnes 10

its hind legs and its quilts projecting

The speed Of the porcupine' IKE Us IN
telligence, is conspicuous because Of its
absence. 1t knows that its lat legs
could not save it from any pursuer ex-
cent terrapin, consequently 1t makes
hall of itself whenever 1T scenHs
trouble. There are many instances in
Wisconsin history where porcupine
roasted over an open fire, without salt
has saved the life of a traveller or sur
vevor. who would otherwise have nrs'
eaten his boots, then gnawed the bark
from trees as long as his teeth held out
and then sunk into the eternal sleep
dreaming of hot pork sausages ano
mince pie.
The porcupine is not at all tenacious
Of life, though it will withstand grea'
exposure. A light tap on the snou
lust in front of the eyes will kill i IN
stantly. Its bones are small and i
flesh soft. 1t is admirably adapted 10

which d man may insert four hngers.
In majority Of instances the proJee-
tiles will drill a clean hole through

are have some tendency to alter the

himself in particularly hard luck, II ne
has salt and knows how to COOK. a
strong prejudice exists against us nesn
among the lumbermen, who despise tne
animal TOO much when alive to enjoy u
when dead, but its meat Is really tenuer
and of an exquisite flavor. 1t is more
repulsive in appearance than possum'
