WISCONSIN GUNNERS
FAVOR ONE BUCK LAW
Hearings in 20 Counties to o.

MADISON. Wis. Sept 2s.-The one buck
law Is expected to go into effect in
Wisconsin this season. Hearings are
now going on in twenty-nine counties
asking that does and fawns be protected.
I'VE had from forty to sixty sports
men at every hearing said W. f. Bar
Der chairman OF the commission land
with the exception OF Eau Claire county,
where one man voted against the one
buck law, and Marinette county. where
ten opposed II. the vote was unanimous
for the protection OF the doe and fawn.
From the best information that could
be gathered. we estimate that at least
10000 deer were killed in the wiscon-
sin woods dast winter and the sports
men agree that fully 70 per cent OF them
were does and fawns. Old hunters declare
that after two years OF the one buck law
they never saw so many deer as last
winter. but at the rate the does and
fawn were killed last year the deer
would soon be exterminated. 1t r. true
that under the buck law some does are
killed. but only a small percentage, as
the rapid increase in the two years
proved"
Under the fish and game laws the
Conservation Commission has the power
to extend protection to wild life. but
cannot remove the protection without

Weather conditions, OF course. would

during some seasons. but Its continued
absence for a number Of years irrespec-
tive Of these Is a certain indication
that the bro has practically disappeared
from that part of its range.
This condition has been caused
mainly through neglect to give the bird
adequate protection. Uniform short
open seasons under federal regulations
may be sufficient to insure n survival OF
the woodcock and the perpetuation of the
species. but most sportsmen concede the
necessity of absolute protection for a
term OF years From all the evidence
adduced the biological survey Is inclined
to agree with this point of view"

You must hunt them when they are
