AN APPARENT INCONSISTENCY.
From the Woodstock Age.)

There seems to be an inconsistency
somewhere in the general discussion of
the open deer season. Mr.. Pinney, the
representative from Brdgewater in the
Legislature, asks the house to amend the
present law so as to allow the shooting
of any deer, instead of protecting does
from Octc Der % to November Is. This re-
quest is made. he says, because Bridge
water and that vicinity is vastly popu-
lated" with deer, which have done much
damage there and in nearby towns. At
the same time half a dozen or more
landowners in the neighboring town of
PlymCuth-where deer are said to be a
perfect plagle-have posted their proper
t. and forbidden the hunting of any game
thereon. Are their farms really suffering
from the ravages OF predatory deer? Do
they want close season the year around
