Belgian hares imported into the Argentine Re-
7ublio have multiplied at astonishing rate.
Some fifty OF these hares were introduced into the
country, and they have now spread to such an ex-
tent to be found at distance of 600 miles from
the spot where they first turned out, and have
Increased so prodigousy that ten hunters have
been known TO kill 1000 in day. Their ravages
all sorts OF crops arc formidable. and some pro-
prietors have gone to the expense Of fencing IN
tensive ranches with wire netting IN order 20
clude them. Some attempt has been made TO turn
their flesh into source OF profit by sending them
to Europe and other markets in frozen state.

The greatest deer hunt on record In Canada was
that in the wids OF Ontario in tho open season in
November. From tho latest returns received by
mo Grand Trunk railway system. the lines OF
which tap tho best territory in the province for
fish and game. It appears that the hunters had the
fullest measure OF success. In the fifteen days OF
the open season OF 1905 the Canadian Express COM
pany alone transported LOO OF deer hav-
ing an aggregate weight OF Sls.S5 pounds all OF
these being shipped from pon on the northern
and Ottawa divisions Of the Grand Trunk When
It is considered that about Eve thousand hunters
we're operating in the several districts OF the prov
ince IN the open season. and that the game laws OF
Ontario allow the killing of only two deer by each
hunter IT can be conservatively estimated that
fewer than thousand deer killed in the
province between November l and 10.
