From the Dead River valley comes
are eating the crops and fostering the
farmers generally. Some farmers have
devised the method of stringing the
fields as they would to keep the crows
away, but in addition. tied bells along
at intervals. When the deer walked
against the string he would ring the
bell and give him start. This worked
pretty well and was practiced to quite
an extent in one section of the valley.
The method in vogue over in the Coplin
section is now to erect poles over the
fields and as the evening draws on to
run up on the pole a lantern. These
are to be seen all along the valley now
like so many lighthouses. These are
said to be very effectual, as the deer
do not like to get in among so many
bright spots.
