HUNTERS AFTER
THE DEER
Only Few Lucky Ones. Game War
dens Wafchfui.-News from
Bucks Camp


Any deer found trespassing In Rusk
county during the hours of daylight
between now and December 1st will
be shOt-at.
Fifteen hundred hunters are in the
woods. The wea ther sofar has been
favora ble to the deer, as there is no
snow, but it has not been disagree
able to the hunter. While there is an
occasional rumor of an accident, SO
far as can be learned but one man
has been shot. Some few hunters
have secured n deer and returned
home, but for the most part the city
is quite depopulated of men. The
mills are running with q short force
and improvements are quite at q
stand-stil.
In addition to the 1913 hunting IL
censes previously issued, 460 have been
issued since last Thursday.
AS usual the "biggest stories"
reach us from Bucks camp, y miles
north of ApOllonia, where the larg-
est contingent of Ladysmith hunt
ers are located. There, at last re-
port, seven deer have been hung up,
shot by f. E. Munroe, E. w. Hill, D.
r. Manley, Jas. Carter, Bob Hummer
and John Young Jr.
This camp is conducted on an elab-
crate scale. A comfortable building
has been furnished, large quantities
of supplies provided, and acook hired
for the season The menu of their
Sunday night supper-the night be-
fore the hunting season opened-was:
Jones sausage, fried eggs, peas, po-
tatoes, ham, new bread, apricot pie,
prunes, baked apples, cherries, cat
sup, cookies, tea and coffee.
