FIVE ARE KILLED
HUNTING DEER
FATALITIES FEWER THIS SEASON
THAN ANY SINCE RECORDS
ARE KEPT.
NEW LAW CLAIMED SUCCESS
Hunters No Longer Shoot First and
Investigate Later-No Injuries
Are Reported This
Year

Madison. Five Wisconsin hunters
year while seeking deer. In 1914 there
were twenty-four fatalities. Last year
there were twenty-six persons injured
in Wisconsin hunting deer. This year
not one was reported injured,
In all of the years since records
have been kept the figures show that
never have there been so few deaths
as during the season Just closed.
According to all reports, the number
Of hunters In the woods this year has
been quite as large as in former years.
Sportsmen who at first were violently
opposed to the much discussed lone
buck law, given it's first trial in Wis
consin this year, are forced to admit
it has probably been the greatest fac
tor in cutting down the terrible loss
of life and limb which has been a part
OF every hunting season in the mem
DRY Of the present generation.
That Wisconsin's new law may be
responsible for the decrease in the
number of accidents is partly borne
out by the list of Michigan fatalities
In the upper peninsula there were
more fatalities this year than in 1914.
with approximately the same number
OF hunters in the field.
It is maintained by those in the
woods this year in search of deer. that
in Wisconsin 1t is necessary to obtain
a clear view of the animal before
shooting. This is because of the heavy
penalty for killing or attempting to kill
any but buck deer In former years
1t was customary for hunters to blaze
away" as soon as they saw anything
moving In the brush
