Farmers Are Advised Watch Out For Foxes E, R. MEADOWS, District Fish and Wildlife Inspector) Farmers who raise poultry should make every effort to pro- tect their flocks from the red fox during the next short while, The young fox pupa— now may be 'seen around their dens, and the mother, with -so many mouths to feed, naturally finds it much easier to take her young a nice plump chicken or duck, .etc„ ra- ther than to go out and catch dozens of mice. Wildlife, such as pheasants, grouse and rabbits, etc., also suffer heavily et this time of year. A number of farmers have found that placing a dog on the poultry range is the best protec- tion that can be found. There is no closed season on red fog . in the Province of On- tario.
