These are large figures, but considered
in connection with the fact that the an

product of the chase becomes an inslg-
nificant factor in the meat supply OF the

ETHICS OF CHASE IN
SCHOOLS OF FORESTRY
German Reports Methods of Preserv-
ina Game Are Important Parts of
Curriculum in Every School
in the Empire

In submitting the following statistics
concerning the community and national
service, Consul George Nicolas lift of
Annaberg reports that the laws and
ethics of the chase, as well as the best
methods of preserving game are i'm
portant part of the curriculum of every
forestry school and academy in the em-
pire.
Recent statistics gathered and COM
piled from the several German states
and other official sources give an inter-
esting view Of the chase as national
asset. There are issued every year in
Germany 100000 annual hunting per-
mits; 100000 permits for shorter periods,
and 10000 free permits to gamekeepers,
foresters, etc. This means that 100000
men-one in every 100 of the population
go hunting occasionally. While the
price of hunting permits in the different
German states varies from $3.50 to $6.25,
the average is about $375. The German
devotees of the chase thus pay in round
figures 81 100000 annually into the state
treasures for hunting licenses.

Any estimate of the economic value
of the chase would be incomplete
which, in addition to the item of direct
income mentioned, did not take into
account the value of the incidental in
terests, such as the manufacture of
arms and ammunition and other hunt
ing paraphernalia, game bags, hunting
outfits, ETC., for it is the fashion here to
hunt in uniform-i. e., hunting jacket
jaeger hat, leggings, game bag and
belt. Considering these incidentals, it
is estimated that the chase means an
nually the distribution of about $32. $780,
600, more or less, directly among all the
people of Germany.
