The readers write Campers to face new tax Sir, Our Provincial government is in the process of putting through legislation which will increase the cost of camping to all those who camp seasonally in private cam- pgrounds in the Province of Ontario. They have been try- ing to do this quietly and without drawing any attention from either campers or cam- pground operators. The plan is to introduce a "lot levy" to be charged by the municipality directly to any camper who camps in a private park for a period of 28 days or more. The levy would amount to $33, in 1985, $66, in 1986 and $110, in 1987 and fur- ther increases would be allowed; Although the levy would be charged to the camper the private cam- pground operator would be forced to be the collecting agent. This is not an assessment that would give the camper a voice in municipal affairs. It is a levy for which the camper Thames Road Cabinets Kitchen, Bathroom, Curio, Desks,: WaII units, etc. Contact Doug Dalrymple 235-0554 shop 235-1967 res.

Our governments, provin- cial and federal, have already made tourism so expensive with their added taxes on such tourist important items as tobacco, gasoline and beverages that Canadians are going south of the Forder, paying an extra 322 cents on the dollar and still finding their vacations cheaper. In talking to U.S. visitors to Canada we find that they also consider Canada an expen- sive vacation even with the premium they get on the dollar exchange. We campground operators have been trying to keep the price we must charge our customers down as much as we can. If we charged enough to make 10 percent on our in- vestment we would be pricing ourselves out of the market. Now our provincial govern- ment has stepped in with in- tent to raise the cost of cam- ping to an extent that will force many to give up camp- ing as a vacation. We in the campground in- dustry are protesting. Campers of Ontario: Write your local M.P.P. or phone and protest this unfair levy on your summer vacation. Do it now or it will be too late.

EEs .w err' r ,I�=.o'-s� SUBMARINES Our 20th location in southwestern Ontario Hunters bag 176 deer in Huron The four day deer season ended in Huron and 176 deer were checked at five check stations throughout the coun- ty. Check stations were located at Wingham, Point Farms Park in Goderich; Hullet Wildlife Area, Zurich, and a mobile station. This year, 838 tags were issued to hunters and 275 tags to farmer -landowners. In comparison, 168 deer were checked at the end of the 1983 hunting season. But when final mandatory reports were sent in by hunters, it was learned that 191 deer were harvested. The deadline for mandatory reports this year is Nov. 22. "We need the mandatory reports because the informa- tion tells us what the hunting pressure was and where the deer were taken," said Terry Matz. Matz is an enforcement co-ordinator for the Ministry of Natural Resources in Wingham. The mandatory reports are important, said Matz. Hunters are required to hand deliver or send by registered mail such reports to the Ministry of Natural Resources office near Wingham. Failure to do so could make a hunter ineligi- ble to hunt in a controlled deer hunt next year. On the whole the deer season was very quiet said Matz. "There was only one violation for hunting without a license. We had a few trespass complaints, but they were resolved. It was a good, quiet hunt." "The largest deer shot was a 41/2 year old buck. It would weigh about 300 pounds live weight. It field dressed at 220 pounds," said Matz. He said fawns and yearl- ings composed the majority of the animals taken. This in- dicates a healthy deer popula- tions and good recruitment in the herds. The Huron County hunt tends to attract hunters from within the county. Only shotguns and muzzle loaders are used in the four day season. And no dogs are allowed. The archery season is not open when a controlled hunt is on. The archery season runs from Oct. 15 to Nov. 4. "And in populated areas, there's less chance of people being hurt. Shotgun pellets don't travel as far as rifle bullets." Deer, when taken to check stations are checked for age, sex and weight. If the hunter has no objections, the jaw of the deer is removed so the age can be calculated more ac- curately. The wear pattern can be checked on the teeth, or one of the incisors can be pulled, cut in half and the rings counted for positive age checks. If the hunter allows the jaw to be taken, he is awarded with a crest. If the hunter returns the hide to the ministry, he receives an orange hat. The hides are treated and distributed among the native people. "This way, there's an incen- tive for the hunter and more of the animal is utilized. And we get our biological informa- tion, said Matz. The deer population in Huron County is estimated to be between 3-4,000. And judg- ing by the hunt, it's healthy population. Women meet at Woodham By MISS.
