 Favor Rifle For Deer Hunting. There is considerable speculation among local hunters as to what will be the result of the proposed open week for hunting deer the coming fall. It seems to be the opinion that the. hunting should be done with a rifle, for this reason; fewer would be hit anyway, and of those that were 8 very large percent would be secured by the hunter and if not mortal1y wounded would be f1umanely dispatch ed. On the other hand, if the hunt ing is restricted to the use of shot guns that one open week will close with 95 percent of the deer that were shot at wandering through the woods with serious and painful shot wounds. with he weeks and months of suffer ing to the animal that such wounds entail. Local hunters who have hunt ed several seasons in the Maine woods say that the rifle is always used, and in fact, a charge of shot is only eff fective when fired at close range and at vulnerable spot. A charge of shot fired at a running deer only makes painful wounds which are months in healing if they ever do.
