1t resembles other and less admirable
habits in that 1t stands over from more
simple time. The tree of olden days
was easily Topped down and brought
10 the market place, 1t cost little to
the purchaser and little to the forest,
which abounded with saplings Now
adays the tree comes from hundreds of
miles away--from almost as far as Claus
himself. And the woodlands are said
to suffer from the enormous tribute of
the stfaightest and cleanest saplings,
which Is exacted. The advisability Of
an apparently arbitrary law such as the
shipped in Vermont is a matter OF con-
Germ to the woodsmen rather than to
us; but the propriety Of using the spoils
Of the forest to help the Christmas of
each home is something for townsmen
everywhere to think over. And they
should make up their minds before the
bells are jingling, the tinsel trappings

II is said by some that every Christ
mas tree cut means lordly timber tree
the less. This is overdrawn, for in nor
NAL forest growth each spruce tree that
attains full growth blankets several
sapling competitors. Yet when all the
saplings are cut there will be no trees.
And that Is, OF course, the danger Just
as the increasing scarcity Of the bison
failed to act automatically to prevent
their economic extinction, 50 the increas-
ing scarcity of saplings is not likely
to operate automatically so as to check
the Christmas-tree demand in time to
save the available woodlands from strip

in a few years, on account of their pro-
mbitive cost; but that will not be until
the trees are gone.

The Open Deer Season.

After the large amount of attention
given this subject in the legislature, we
would like to offer few suggestions
the returns for the past two open sea-
sons show that the shooting of both
sexes of deer is depicting the stock of
deer too fast to ensure the continuance
of the sport for a very long period, I'M
der the old law, which allowed the
shooting Of bucks only, the stock Of deer
increased, but under the present law it
is decreasing. These results argue in
favor of the old law.
The results of the season just closed
seem to disproye the old claim that the
shooting of bucks alone would create a
predominance OF does and restrict the
years the shooting Of bucks has been al
lowed, and the doe protected. The first
season that the shooting of both sexes
was allowed there were a few more doe
than bucks shot, due doubtless to the
fact that the protection of doe had made
them more tame and easy to shoot, This
season, however there were two or three
hundred more bucks than doe shot. This
would indicate that the shooting of
bucks alone in years previous had not
seriously reduced their number This
is another argument in favor Of the old
law
The length Of the open season for
shooting bucks should be changed, as a
matter of justice to the hunter who is
required to pay license. New Hamp-
shire and Maine give longer open sea-
sons, and Vermont should do so as a
square deal to the hunter. With the OPP
portunity to shoot restricted to one sex
of deer. a longer season should be given,
as the hunter now pays for the privileges
Of shooting and past experience shows
that the stock OF deer will not be depict
ed by it.
Justice to both deer and hunters re-
quires longer open season. With only
one week for shooting, the woods are So
full of hunters that they are menace
to each other. While deaths from stray
bullets have not been numerous, the dan
ger from them would be reduced BY
giving the hunters longer time in which
to crafty their desire to hunt. Under
present conditions, the deer do not have
fair chance. because the filing of the
woods with hunters from one end of the
state to the other gives them no place
for hiding or protection, With hunters
in or near all their haunts, the deer are
kept constantly on the move, and their
exposure increased There is no rest for
them inside the state, and there is the
possibility that they may be driven to
some extent into other states, and we
lose some of the benefits our protection
is supposed to give.
The reasons given above lead us to
believe the changes suggested would be
desirable They might not all work out
as we expect, but it does seem as though
they would tend TO make the hunting of
deer more safe, more sportsmanlike and
at the same time not seriously deplete
the stock of deer in the state.-St.

70 Learn How People Feel About Liquor
Law legislation.

The joint committees on temperance
held hearing in the State House last
evening on the numerous liquor bills
now before the legislature, including
the bill which permits delivery Of liquor
by licensees Of the second and seventh
class to common carriers. Mr. Burbank
Of Cabot and Mr.. Ellis Of Broolfeld
opposed the bill and Rev L. n. Moody
Of Island Pond thought the only thing
in its favor was that the sooner the
present law was made worse, the sooner
it would rot out
When the referendum bill was taken
up, its author, Mr. Burbank Of Cabot,
called upon Superintendent Ferguson Of
the Anti-Saloon league to speak for it..
He predicted that under the present law
the state will never have less than rs
license towns, and that only four towns
OF the state were ever carried for Ii
cense without the improper use OF mon
ey and liquor, and said he was told not
over two weeks ago that a saloon keeper
in Burlington made the statement that
there were 100 places in that city where
liquor was being sold without license.
Mr. Ferguson favors a prohibitory law,
with the liquor sold by the state, in
stead Of by the towns. Referring to the
present law, he said the understanding
was when the local option law was
adopted, that ii should be submitted 20
the people again in two years, but that
eight years had elapsed since the people
had had any chance to express their
opinion.

President Buckham died in the har-
ness, which fact recalls his words spoken
at university of Vermont alumni ban
quet in Montpelier three weeks ago He
said that when he assumed the duties Of
president of the state university in 1877
he was 30 years of age, and some people
declared he was too young to hold such
position; and now some people, he
said, were declaring that he at the age
OF rs was too old to perform the duties.
But continued President Buckham, as
he threw back his shoulders, "they were
both wrong; then was too old at 80
and now | am too young at 49, How
ever, it was evident that his bodily vigor
had fallen far behind the youthful, yet
ripened, vigor of his mind, which evil
dence was the cause for grave alarm
among his many friends.
