Dependence May Not
Bring Army Deferment

While publicity has been given to
various amendments to the Selective
service act, both in this paper and
outside papers, Local Board No. 8 OF
the selective service system thinks 1t
is possible that some of the registrantS
may not have read same and wishes
to draw attention to the following:
Amendment No. n of the Selective
Service Regulations, states that it is
not advisable to defer any registrant,
on the grounds of dependency, if the
registrant acquired that status after
the day on which he was required to
register, (Oct 16, 1910 or July l, 194O,
and he or his dependents must pre-
sent to the local board, a written state
ment of the facts PECULIARLY within
their knowledge, showing the history
leading up to and the circumstances
under which the status was acquired
and such facts must show that the
status was asquired in the ordinary
course of human affairs and was not
acquired to provide the registrant fol
a basis for deferment on the grounds
of dependency"
Affidavits may also be required and
the local board has instructions to
enforce the amendment with vigor
Registrars would do well to consult
with the local board and report any
changes in status.

II Per Cent of Deer We're
Killed During 1910 Season
80 Per Cent of Hunters Were
Successful, Is, 900 Re-
ports Indicate.

The department of conservation this
week estimated the deer kill during
the 1910 season at 1896, or approx
mately lis per cent of the total Min
nesota population.
The deer population was calcu-
lated at 425,095 in Minnesota during
October, 1910, by state and federal
survey workers.
Paul R. Highly, department man.
malogist, said 66,273 big game licenses
were sold last year. This would mean
that 80 per cent of the hunters were
successful. The deer bag estimates
were based on reports turned in by
25,563 hunters.
A breakdown of the 1910 hunters
reports showed that II per cent of the
deer killed were adults. The remain
ing % per cent were fawns.
That the majority of hunters prefer
to hunt bucks and do bag them is
evident from the statistics. The figures
showed that of the adult deer killed,
81 per cent were bucks and 80 per
cent does. OF the fawns killed, Sc
per cent We're males and A per cent
females.
Since the law limits deer hunting to
even numbered years, there will be no
season during 1871.

the mills are running full blast. Dep

only two American citizens. Some of
the Winton members were here Sun
day and talked strike to the Ely miners
but as the miners here are getting
more than what the strike on the

be that the leaders of the miners and

shoemakers.
