Raccoons May Be kept In Closed
Season

An inquiry came to the Reporter
from party who wished to know
whether or not he had a right to
have in his possession a live raccoon.
We have taken up the matter with
the Inland Fisheries and Game Com
mission at Augusta and are informed
that they are always glad to grant a
person, who secures raccoons legally
in open season a permit to keep the
same in closed season. If a single
animal or two of the same sex are to
be kept no charge is made for the
permit, but If it is the intention to
propagate them, the possessor would
be classed as fur farmer and would
be required to procure 81 fur farm
ing permit annually.

NOrrldgewock WOman's Shooting
Record

Mrs. Susie Storer of Norridgewock
has made a record shooting which
might be envied by many local male
sportsmen. This fall Mrs. Storer
found that she would have to shoot
the squirrels around her premises as
they were stealing grain, etc., and SO
taking her % rife she started to do
her duty with the result that she
shot thirty eight squirrels and only
used forty eight cartridges. Can
this be beaten around this section by
woman?
