to cooperate with them in feeding
and caring for the wild life during
the winter.
j. u. Hostettler. who resides on the
old Noah Sharp farm along Back
mountains, reports deer visiting his

wardens in investigating damage
from deer eating wheat believe the

stronger for the spring shoots. What
little is trampled doesn't injure the
crops, they say.
