1t is said about $1,000 hunters will
be disappointed in Massachusetts be-
cause OF Gov. Walsh's decree in gus
pending the open season for small game
the day after it begun, on the grounds
that to permit hunters to go into the
woods would increase the danger of
forest fires in very dry season; but
the temporary disappointment of some
tens of thousands of individuals is
nothing when compared with the pos
sible great loss to the forests and other
property. Therefore, there will be
general commentator of the act of
Governor Walsh among thinking peo-
pie of that State. That it was the
part of wisdom is proven beyond ques-
tion when it is known that forest fires
increased 500 per cent during the very
brief time when the open season was in
full swing.
The same sort of policy was tried in
Vermont, a few years back when ar
abnormally dry time made the forest
fire danger very acute, and while there
was some grumbling by sportsmen
eager for the hunt, there was general
approval of the course pursued and the
results justified the means taken fol
preservation of forests i'm the State.
There will be hunting enough in Maasa-
chusetts later on, and no far reaching
bad results would come if the season
were to be lost entirely - Barre Times,
