Age, Clothing and Weather
Affect Hunting Accidents,
Persons most likely to be shot
accidently in the hunting field, ac-
cording to a recent report com-
piled by the National Rifle As•
sociation, Washington, are: "age
1.9 and under; wearing red cloth-
ing; and engaged in hunting dur-
ing bright, clear weather. They
will be mistaken for anything
from a deer to a groundhog by
other hunters who fail to recog-
nize in time that their carelessly
shot -at -targets are human—and
some will shoot themselves."
Along with Quebec, Saskatche-
wan and British Columbia, Ontar-
io contributes vital statistics, join-
ing with 30 'of the 48 states of
the U.S.A. to submit information
so that the Rifle Association can
compile annually the "uniform
hunter casualty report."
Injured by gunshot in a single
year, according to the 1952 re-
port, were 1,105 persons. Of
these, 198 were killed outright or
died of wounds. In 311 cases the
accidents were self-inflicted, but
in 788• instances the shooting was
done by other parties, known or
unknown.
The most dangerous habit listed
by the report was "carrying load-
ed firearms." While doing so and
"stumbling and falling," 91 per-
sons were wounded. When the
"trigger caught in the brush, 36
were shot. By rushing in to "kill
game by clubbing it with a loaded
gun," nine were injured.
While "removing a loaded wea-
pon from vehicles or boats," 26
were shot; while riding in or on
a moving vehicle, 25. Another
39 went to hospitals when "insec-
urely ruled firearms" fell from
their resting places, particular ly
the slippery surfaces of car bum-
pers and mudguards, and were
discharged.
"Crossing fences with loaded
guns" brought disaster to 22 per-
sons, and 10 "didn't know it was
loaded." "While loading," 37 pee -
sons were shot, and 32 were in-
jured "while unloading."
The most dangerous time to be
in the hunting field is around
11:00 a,m., the report pointed out,
with 4:00 p.m. a close second. The
most dangerous days are opening
days. In the first nine days of

the 1952 open seasons, 380 per-
sons were shot. This represents
60 percent of the total of those
shot by other, known persons. But
238 of those injured during the
first nine days were shot on open-
ing days.
Of 600 accidents investigated,
211 were caused by persons 1.9
years of age and under, 133 by
men age 20-29, and 112 age 30 to
39. Hunters over 60 years of age
caused 33 accidents. Altogether,
93 casualties were caused by hen -
tees with at least three years ex-
perience.
Here's what investigators found
in 189 cases where the persons
shot had been "mistaken fee

"Mistaken for deer," 100; for
"bear", 9; for "elk", 10; fur
"moose", 1; for rabbits," 7; Lor

pen to the price of pork during the next six months. While
we are not able to give you the answer, we do know a few
things that may affect the price. First, there are definitely,
less hogs in the country theet, there were, Secondly, many
feeders who believe that the price. of pork >will advance, are
looking for weaner pigs without too much success,
We do have some known facts which may interest .yoti.
The most important is that Master Feeds have a HOG,
CONTRACT that will feed your pigs until they go to market;;
WITH NO INTEREST OR CARRYING CHARGES. Enquire,
about our customers who are already on this plan. Enquire
about the success that they have had. If you want navies you
can get them and then ask your neighbour how he likes it,
We also know that if you are going to be short of grain,
before spring, that you would be wise to feed the grain to your,
cattle and buy Master Hog Feeds. If you go on a' MASTER
HOG CONTRACT you will know when your hogs go to market
whether you made or lost money and how much. . Phone us cr
enquire the next time you are in. We also know that you can
feed your surplus milk with Master Hog Grower to increase,
' your profits. po not feed milk with Master Pig Starter.
