Wisconsin hunters will experience
for the first time in the history OF the
state the Buck Deer Law. This law
prohibits the killing of female deer,
and has been enacted in nine other
states in the union, and from reports
presented to the last legislature, a
great majority of the hunters in these
states are satisfied after giving the
buck law a thorough try out. Eight
years ago the buck law was passed in
California. In Alimeda county, Cal,
deer were almost extinct and last
wear 492 buck deer were reported kill
ed in that county.
