son are issued daily from the office of

statement showing the number reported
on that particular day. Up 10 and in
Guiding the reports received Saturday,
Nov. II, which is the last day for which
the figures have been issued, the total
number Of deer tbuCks only reported
killed in the state was Adj. The season
WAS half gone Saturday night. The fig
ureS up to that date probably were more
than a full days kill short, and as the re-
ports for the last few days have averaged
about 100 a day il is safe to say that the
total number killed last week was over
coo.
Last year. when both bucks and does
were taken and the season began the first
Monday in December and lasted. only six
days, the total for the state was 4,52S.
If the present weeks kill is equal to that
of last week the state total viii be some
thing over 1,200, or cnly about 2I per
cent of last years record, although this
years season is twice aS long.
In Windham county last year the rec
ord was S26. or more than any other
county Records for this year thus far
available show 80 killed in Windham
county. which exceed the number for any
other county. Rutland being second with
go. Windsor third with IS and Washing
ton fourth with 81. No deer have been
reported killed this year in Grand Isle
county and none were killed in that
county last year. The record by counties
thus far this year follows:
