Present indications are that moose
are more numerous in the woods of
northern Maine than ever before. AL
most daily some paper or cOrreSpOn-
dent reports the seeing of moose near
the settlements, which is said by old
hunters to be an indication of increaS..
in numbers of the animals. 1t seems,
too that at the present time there have
been reported more cases where the
animals have met death by accident
than in the past.
Already four such cases have come
to the attention of the commissioners,
one Of them being under very strange
conditions. This was the case of big
bull moose which visited the town of
Fort Fairfield one fine Sunday morning
several weeks ago and which in at
tempting to jump a wire fence fell
breaking his neck. Another has been
killed down on the Washington country
road ana the Maine Central put COW
moose out of the world a short time
ago near Lincoln and the Bangor &
ArOnstook killed the fourth. 1t is to be
hoped that the big fellows are on the
increase as the more moose Maine has
the greater the inducement for out Of
state sportsmen to come here.
