Open Season on Deer Probable. F. o. Davis, Pomfret, member of the fish and game commission, said while in this city Friday afternoon that in dicationS are that the legislature will authorize an open season on deer At present six days of shooting for this fall is talked of
 Some of those who have the mat ter in charge are in favor, of opening the season for a solid week, others want three open days in one week in November and three days in the suc- and Friday of each week to be shoot ing days. This latter plan seems to be the most favored for various req sons.
 Among these reasons is the one that more persons would get an opportu- nifty to hunt the deer if the shooting season were extended over two weeks. If all of the shooting is to be done within one week, some hunters may not be able to get away from their regular duties at that particular time. Another and an important consid eration is the safety of persons who
 
 takes them into the woods. In the opinion of MT. Davis, it is not going to be at all safe to be in the woods working on days when persons are privileged to hunt deer and it would be hardly fair to such workers to oblige them in the interest of their safety to keep out of the woods for whole week at a time, to the injury of their business
 When asked about the matter, MT. Davis said that the claims that have been filed against the state on account of deer damage and allowed during the past two years amount to approx imateIy s6,3o0. The appropriation by the legislature of 1911. for meeting deer damage costs was only $2,000, so the deficiency is in excess of $4000 The amount of damage done by deer is constantly increasing, a particular reason why the open season is being so strongly urged.
