Chief Game. Warden Tinsley esti-
mates the number of deer killed last
season in Ontario at 6,000,'an increase

their. own, and at the present rate will
not he all killed off. The number of
hunters reporting was 6,500, but there
were probably a thousand or so more

Those who are fond of oysters may
regret to learn ' that this delicate
shell -fish promises: to " be rather
scarce, and consequently high in
price, for some time.; In the last few
days they have jumped up in price: 20
cents per gallon, and the indications.
are that the price will go higher still.
The cheapest possible price that re-
tail dealers can purchase them at the
wholesale. houses today is: $1.87 1-2
per gallon. Therefore they could not
be sold to the coneumer at'`much less
than 45 cents',a quart, and the price
heretofore .has been .4.0 - cents and in
some instances 35 cents a quart.
The reason for the increase is owing
to the fact that Baltimore. Bay is
frozen over, and it is'. only with great
difficulty that the dredging craft can
got out from and into the harbor.
