Post Want Ad and be frioney ih. pocket, To advertise, :ins( Dial Brussels If a deer or moose hunter receives a buckskin jacket this Christmas, it may well be made from the hide of an animal he downed himself. More than 5,000 Oniario hunters contribute their deer and moose hides to Indian craftsmen who.-make them into a variety of fringed and beaded jackets, mitts, slippers and mukluks. The annual donation of hides by hunters helps the native craftsmen to retain their traditional skills, and their finished .products find a ready market among Ontario residents and tourists. Hides are collected at various drop-off points across the province--usually the field offices and, game checking stations opera ted by the Ministry -of Natural Resources. 'The hides arc treated to prevent spoilage and forwarded to a tannery. , The tanned' hides are distributed to Ontario's Indian craftsmen by the Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development. The craftsmen are charged only 90 cents a square foot,_, a good bargain when coMpared with the market value which trends upwards from $2.25 a square foot. The finished garments and footgear are shipped to the .department's central warehouse in Ottawa where they are examined by buyers for the trade. Some items are purchased for large stores, some for, small stores and some for Indian friendships centres which are •located throughout the province. Hide collecting was on a hit-arid.thiss basis until the Thunder Bay Branch of the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters took it over as a project in 1969, As the Federation spread the Word, the hide flow increased from only 300 to more than 2,000 in 1969. At this point, the enterprise was turned over to the Ministry of Natural Resources,, Ah increased number of hunters from souther'' Ontario' were attracted to the idea, and the hide donation reached the 5,000 leVel in 1912.
