Save the Deer.

One Massachusetts vandal was put
through the courts last week for kil'
ing deer. The Springfield Republi.
can tells of another case:--
Excitement hes been caused in HoF
land by the killing of a large buck
deer. A few days ago Henry Brown
was crossing a field near the Ratigan
house, when he saw three dogs chas
ing a deer. Just before the dogs took
the deer to the open field he had been
shot at and one foreleg was broken
The dogs were driven off and the
wounded animal taken to the Ratigaa
barn, where he died. A game warden
from Boston has been in Holland IN
vestigating the case, and a prosecu-
ton will follow. The dogs wore col.
lars bearing the name of Greenwood.
Holland is the Massachusetts border
town Immediately north of Stafford
and Union. A number OF deer have
been seen in Tolland and Windham
counties. They should be protected
and given a chance to live and to
multiply there. We are glad TO see
that the Massachusetts authorities
are ready 90 do their part.--Hartfor9
