WOULD IMPROVE
THE deer LAWS
HOW LEGISLATORS MIGHT BET
TER CONDITIONS Is GENER.
ALLY DISCUSSED BY
sPoRTsMEN.

AS usual at this time OF the year,
there is much discussion of possible
remedial legislation affecting the
game laws us applied to deer. Local
sportsmen generally are of the opin-
ION that the present regulations are
FAR from perfect and offer suggestions
for improvements, says the Marquette
Mining Journal. Nearly every hunter
however, has his own idea and it
would Irc3al5ly oe impossible ito
frame a law which would suit every
one.
Many claim that the open season.
as now fixed from Nov. 10 to Nov. 80.
is too late. With snow on the
ground, it is much easier to track
deer and to run them down than when
the ground Is bare, and at the rate
they are being killed off this fall, il
Is predict1 that the day Is not far dis.
tant when the animals will have be-
come extinct in this part Of the state.
Another argument in favor Of an ear
lier season is that deer meat is more
"dible in the late summer and early
fall than I'm November, during the
running season.
That the present law be re-vamped
to prohhbit the shooting of does at all
fc
frequently heard. 1t is claimed that
this would not only result in deer
multiplying more rapidly, but that II
would lessen the danger of hunters
being shot I'm the woods. If a man
had to wait until he could see wheth-
er or not a deer had horns IL is claim
ed that he would not blaze away at
anything he happened to see move.
whether ii be a deer, a squirrel or
man. Though there have been no
hunting accidents i'm this county to
date. as far as reported there have
been the usual number Of casualties
i'm other localities and that hunters
in this county have escaped is prob
ably due more To good fortune than
to any other contingency.
Still another class would take off
the protoct!on on deer altogether, ar
gulng that it is human nature 10 want
To do That which IS forbidden and
that an open season only twenty days
i'm year causes many TO so deer
hunting iIhat would not think of hunt
ing If they could go out any day. 1t
is claimed that comparatively few of
the down state hunters would come
up to the upper peninsula to hunt at
all, If they know they could come at
any time AS II is now, the down
state huntens make plans for the an
nual trio north from the time they get
back home. 1t Is also suggested that
human life Is worth more than all the
deer i'm the state, anyway, and that
with an open season there would be
very few hunters in the woods at one
time. which would greatly lessen the
danger of a hunter being shot.
other would have closed season
for a period of years to permit the
Geer to multiply and again become as
numerous as they were in days of
yore. Others would prohibit taking
dogs into the woods, and would cut
down the annual license from two To
one deer. In fact, there are just
about as many suggestions as there
are hunters.
