ISLANDS ovERRUN BY DEER.
Come to the Very Doors and Farmers
Can Only Shoe Them Away.


Farmers on Orcas, WILDLY. Lopez
and Mercer islands have grown weary
shooting the deer away from their crops
and they are demanding the privilege
OF discriminating the deer on the islands
Either this action or they will have to
move back to town and give over the
islands to the wild game.
Ii IS claimed by the farming interests
that the bill making game preserves of
the four islands was all very well in
the days when these spots were not set
tied by an industrious class that is now
filling the soil. Then it made no differ
ence whether the deer multiplied like
rabbits or whether they were driven into
the water by hunters
Now that Orcas, WILDLY, Lopez and
Mercer islands have become thickly set
tied the deer have become nuisance
Mercer islands lies in Lake Washington
within a stones throw OF the states
metropolis, but the deer are as absolute
i'll their control as though the spot was
located near Mount Tacoma
1t does not make any difference how
much money is spent by the settlers and
city farmers on the improvement of
their places. the deer drift in and eat
up whatever suits their fancy, and the
farmers are helpless, All they can do
is to shoe away the invaders. and if
they will not shoe the farmer may in his
desperation take the deer by the horns
and lead him outside the enclosure But
he has no privilege in law of using vio-
lence in dealing with the deer pest.
One oil TWO residents IN Mercer is
land tried to be rid of the deer pest. 1t
is related that one Industrious citizen
who found the deer eating up his cab
bage patch, killed one and the game
warden Immediately placed him under
arrest. That the courts subsequently
freed him is no consolation. The farm
ers in the deer-infested regions want
the privilege of fighting to preserve their
fireSides from invasion by the ferocious
deer.-Walla Walla Statesman.
