Council dee ided ,, at last -week's
session in Goderich.
Action was taken following a
request from Ontario Department,
of Lands and Forests, backed up
b' arguments as to its necessity,
and recommendation by the Ag-
riculture and Reforestation Com-
mittee, John H. Corbett, Hayem
Township, chairman.
Donald Johnston, Hespeler,
Fish and ,Wildlife Supervisor,
Lake °Huron District, Ontario De-
partment of hands and Forests,
To Have Hunting Season
argued strongly before Council
for an open season for three
days in the ten counties of Lake
Huron District.
A brief...submitted to Council
indicated that for the past two
years, the majority of the Dis-
trict's population had been ex-
posed to harvest which•had been
beneficial not only to the hunters
but also to the local economy.
Density of deer is over one
deer per square mile with some
local areas up ,to 15 deer. Nat-
ural increase is a big factor.
Information collected' on deer
killed by means other than legal
hunting indicates. t h at the ma-
jority of such deer were in-
volved in mishaps, such as
automobile collisions, during late

Therefore, a November hunt not
only provides recreation, but sub-
stantially reduces the chances
of vehicle collisions.
It was pointed out •that .a nat-
ural renewable resource such as
a"deer herd, cannot be stock -piled
any more than an agricultural.
product of the land which must
be harvested. He pointed out that
75 per cent of the animals har-
vested in the fall of 1966, were
present in the herd during the
1965 hunt, indicating that these
animals are quite capable of
withstanding annual harvest,
He said that an annual deer
hunt assists in keeping the deer
herd within the carrying .capaci-
ty -of the range,
Mr. Johnston pointed out that
in t h 1966 three-day open sea-
son, Huron County had 1,585 hunt-
ers, -who harvested 458 deer,with
28,9 per cent success. nln Huron
Council Meets

red to the chairman of public
works, Harry Worsell, with
power to act. The machineis
located in the garage of a To.
ronto industrial supply com
pany. Hence public works chair-
man Worsell was authorized
to inspect the machine at its
Toronto location. The company
is pricing the sweeper at
$3,250.
There was considerable dis-
cussion centered on the question
of residents keeping livestock
within the town limits. The mat.
ter of keeping horses,' which
a number of residents present.
ly maintain on their property,
received most attention. It was
finally decided that h by-law,
'to control. animals within the
town' should be enacted. Coun.
cillor Howlett made a motion
to that effect, which was
conded and approved.
Reports of standing commit.,
tees were next on the. council's
agenda. Very little new was
forthcoming from any chairmen
regarding their departments.
The prospect of getting a -
storm sewer under construe,
tion , which would qualify a:-
a winter works program re.
ceived attention at the- meeting.
Goderich would be eligible for
a federal grant 'towards this
construction project,if it were
undertaken this winter.
It was stated that engineering
consultant Burns Ross had al-
ready been asked to prepare
blueprints and do preliminary
survey in_ connection with the
sewer project.
se.
County, 92 per cent of the hunters
were local residents or resided
within t e n miles of the boundar.=
les, while 36 per cent were rural
people.
Grant Stirling, Goderich Town-
ship, asked M. Johnston what
made him think there were suf-
ficient deer in the areato warrant
an open season. As far as he was
concerned he couldn't see •',any
deer and antelope play".
Mr. Johnston replied that deer
are nocturnal animals, not seen
very much in the daytime. This
was borne out by the high percent-
age of road kills at night.
He ,.tided that the officials liked
an open season to reduce illegal
hunting, of deer, The licence fee
goes to the Provincial Treasurer.
The farmer's $2 fee is valid
in the county in. which the
licencee resides.
Council concurred, in recom-
mendations of ;the Committee on
licence fees: for min -residents
of Ontario (a) hunter's • licence
fee set at $100; (b) hunters re-
stricted from running dogs; (c)
hunter's bag limit reduced: (d)
hunters restricted to a shorter
season,
