WANTS DEER PROTECTED
URGES DEER PROTECTION
TO CONSERVE MEAT SUPPLY
Virginia Scnson Opened This Month.
Agricultural Department Advo-
Gates Use of Game as Food.

While fifteen States will have no
blg-game hunting this year because
deer have been exterminated or be-
cause the stock has been so reduced
that the season is closed. there are
thirty-three other States, according to
the United States Department Of Agri-
culture, which will have an open season
for deer hunting.
This season ranges from four days in
New Jersey and six days in Massachu-
sets and Vermont. to two months or
more in some of the Southern States.
These seasons will open in August in
oregon and in most parts of California;
in September in the rest Of California
and in Idaho. South Carolina and Vir-
sinia; in October in Maine. New Hamp-
shire. New York. Georgia, Montana,
Wyoming. Washington, Nevada, Ari-
iona and New Mexico; in November In
Michigan, Minnesota. Wisconsin and
several Southern States. and in Decem.
Der in Pennsylvania. In about one
third of the States the law allows the
hunters one deer a year. and in most
others two.
The Department OF Agriculture urges
best possible protection of deer, so
as TO get the maximum amount of veni-
son as source Of meat.
IT Is estimated that about $4,000 deer
are killed legally in the United States
each year. These produce nearly TO-
100000 pounds of venison. The Biolosi-
cal Survey of the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture says that this
number Of deer can be very largely in
creased. since only two or three States
produce more than 10000 deer a year.
and many less than 1000. When LOO
deer are obtained in State as denseIy
populated as Massachusetts it should
not be difficult, says the department.,
to increase the total in other States
by at least 20 per cent. Every pound
of venison brought in from the woods
should be made to save pound of
beef mutton or pork raised on ranch or
arm.
The cooperation of gam. commits
sioners. conservation associations and
other organizations Is requested by the
department as an aid in securing ac-
curate reports of the number of deer
killed In each State this year Such
reports should prove of value for COM
parison with the returns from other
years and may tell whether the mum
her Of deer annually taken in any State
may he increased without impairing the
breedink stock.
