A noteworthy condition of the` horse market`even during the dull ' season has peen the,steady enquiry for good quality horses. The supply is altogether unequal to the demand.

How long would they be al- lowed to go scot free? Why even if they shot only in season they would soon be stopped. It is a poor rule` that won t work both ways. - _ a During the past winter the settlers in this district have discussed" amongst themselves the advisability of shutting out the h.unters alto- gether and allowing no hunting at all except on lands not yet. taken up. What a howl there will be next fall when these hunters come in if this decisipn is carried out! ' .;-an \.r --J .... --5 nnv yuan ow. _These same `hunters who are blaming the settlers for the dec`rease in the game have no objection to hunting on the settlers land with- out any permission asked or` ob- tained. They seem to think that because they "have spent $2 for a license they own the whole country and all that is in it. Not at all is it an uncommon thing for .a settler to be orderedyout of his own woods by .some of these hunters who will tell him that he is on their hunting [ grounds. i Now, I do not mean to say that every Ontario hunter goes in for that kind of thing. I do mean to say, however, that the average hunt- er is a game hog of the worst type, |and'is ready to kill at any time or iplace everything he can see. I nu, , Two years ago a so-called sports- man from Southern Ontario shot and shipped out four hundred ruffed grouse,_ and the year before the same man shot three hundred. How is it we never hear the sportsmen telling these things instead of blam- _ing the poor settler? V Several hunting parties I could name bring nets withethem, and ship out enough sh to last them all win- 'ter. Others bring traps and clean up what little fur we have left in the country. -_-_ -..---v ......95._ `I remember foiir years ago` seeing a full wagon, load. of deer shipped from Ahmic `Harbon at noon on the. first day of the season. Now these deer all belonged to the same hunt.- ing party and had: been brought in by wagon some twenty-six miles that morning.. Wi_ll anyone tell" me that they werekilled in` `the open season? The same party remained in carp for two days after the sea- son was closed. Will some one tell us how vmany deer they left in the woods when they came out? A few years ago I_ saw .four deer left in one camp and in the follow- ing year there were three deer left in the same camp, In both years. there_wa's` abundant evidence to show that others had been killed and partly eaten. . The new houses in the country have, of course, provision for this. \Vith a. tank in the attic, and hot- water xtures by the kitchen stove. the problem is solved just as in town? houses where there are waterworks `to be brought into `use. But where such arrangements _do not ei;is`t.'and cannot well be put into exi A ence, the question of the best sunhstptute be- comes pertinent. I. ..i>\g\. . ... ,, , ,_.-_ ..--., _.-..... -.._u.n._ 1-5u|.i . During` the last twenty years I have been engaged as" a guide and in that time I have met somehundreds "of deer hunters. I_ have never yet met one from the older parts of On- _tario who-was notquite willing to kill more deer than the law -allows him if he could only get the chance. -I have met-two Americans who had such` a chance but" declined to avail themselves of it.` Now these same good sportsmen, as they call them- selves,'will come in a week or ten days before the seasonlopens, and run dogs` and kill deer right along. They will also remain two or three days after the season `is closed and do` the same thing. 1 _-_._;,_ I ,.,----...._`- V..." V. |._l1\p a\.u.u;L.
