Jackson. who lives beside the
Dead Stream swamp in the newly
established game area, made his
one hundred third bear kill in a
part of the swamp which lies in
Missaukee County. The bear
weighed approximately $50 pounds,
Now past 20, Jackson finds bear
hunting as exciting as when he
shot his first with a muZzle loader
when he was 6 years old. 1t might
not have happened, he says. if he
had not, against parental orders,
taken gun along with him in
search of a stray calf.
"After that all / wanted to do
was hunt bear" Jackson says.

Try to Solve Problem
of Animals Starving
During the Winter

NEWBERRY. Dec. 28.-There
will be about rs deer on a diet
at CUISINE state wildlife expert
ment station near Melstrand this
Winter. The deer-bucks, fawns
and does-are guinea pigs" OF
the fifth season of tests to find
out what deer can and do eat

the conservation departments

problem of wholesale Winter deer
starvation.
After a Summer of freedom,
semi-tame deer about the station,
were coaXed back into the corral
by attendants with handsfull OF
corn. Other deer have been re-
ceived at CUISINE from several
state game refugees where they
we're reared from orphan fawns.
On three occasions during the deer
hunting season, night Waterman
kept hunters from bagging any
of the bucks inside the fence.

the answer TO all this. 1t is the
Christmas tree that stood $50
nobly in your front room.
About five years ago Speck con-
ceived the idea of making a bird
shelter from Yule trees. that has
proved the means of saving the
lives of many birds.
At this season of the year, when
the spirit of giving is predominant
in the hearts of all, he believes
that no nobler thing could be done
than TO take your tree out into
the country and prepare a shelter
for the birds.
It's really easy. too. All it re-
quires TO make a first class shelter
that no wind can blow down, is
three or four trees. a few stakes,
and little wire. To get the extra
trees simply tell your neighbor
next door and chances are he will
not only give you his tree. but will

DogChan
BY BUELL. PATTERSON

Often L have wished for the
time, the money, and the land 70
have a dog of every breed. / have
heard this same sentiment echoed
by many of my dog-loving friends.
Under ideal circumstances it might
work out, -but-in-tr-tff-f weuid be
a difficult venture.
Dogs of different breeds have
vastly different characteristics and
mixing different breeds in daily life
is a problem. / can look back
upon the time when l had an Aire-
dale and an English setter. The
life of the English setter was not
a very happy one when the Aire-
dale wanted his way. The Airedale
was a natural-born scrapper and
bullied the setter most of the time.
Husky No Bully
I also had the same setter and
giant husky. That was an even
worse combination. The husky
was gentle enough with people, but
could not keep from tackling any
thing on four feet. He was as
brave as they make them and not
bully at all. He just liked 10
fight better than anything else in
the world, Fighting is character
istic of the husky breed.

Heavy Mortality
BY GEORGE RINTAMAKI

NEWBERRY, Dec. %. - The
deer herds of northern Mich
igan, safely past the Fall hunting
season, are facing the most diff
cult and far most dangerous time
of the year.
How will they fare when Old
Man Winter adjusts his sights and
cuts loose with his chill blasts i?
Many woodsmen and some of the
states game men predict the NOR
tally rate will be heavy, with
young deer being hit hardest.
Deer cover in the North is be-
coming increasingly scarce each
year. Experts estimate that there
is now lett on an average of only
one acre of deer yard to Il acres
of Summer range. 1t is estimated
further that less than Is per cent
of this Winter deer cover is in
good condition.

again would the splendid birds
spiral down to this deSolate pond.
Temperature was just below
freezing point, but the wind
seemed to pierce us with shsrn
icicleS. Many a sub-zero day we
had not suffered as on this De-
cember afternoon. Staring into the
silver sun. before which scudded
grey clouds, brought no anguish TO
our eyes. In the metallic disk there
was no warmth. Wind dropped a
little and hush of the December
day grew more ominous.

Spread Then, Out

After you have found a spot
where YOU are confident bird life
exists, place the trees on>end and
bind them together with a wire
about three or four feet from the
top.
Now spread the trunks out 10
form a teepee. At the base of
each tree drive a stake and wire
the tree securely to each peg to
prevent the wind from blowing il
down.
