THE HUNTING SEASON October the first is a red-letter day on thd calendars of sportsmen all -eve the American continent signalling,aO it,does the °peeing of- the mown and deer hunting sweet' in the greater part be Canada. Tb,e present season 15 expected to eonstitute record one in this regard, as the -mummer has wit- nessed an unprecedented volume of .ordinary •holiday traffic, 'and 'there le every prospect at a greater number of visiting spertsmen to the wbocis of Eastern . Canada and greater bags --be- ing 'eecured. Tele, is attributable both to the Met that a greater number ot parties of hunters have exPreesed their intention -of visiting Canada this year, and that in maziy sctions of the country there is every indication of an increase in game: ' - The Province of -Quebec expects an excellent hunting .season. It is point-' ed out that the rainy summer has led many visitors to postpone their vaca- tions untiS later than usual who will swell the ordinary Mvation of regular eportemen. Big game is stated to be Undoubtedly more plentiful In Quebec this .season than it has been for -many Years, due largely to a policy of con- cenerated preservation. Smell pre- serves have been ,established to the ex- tent -already ot five -hundred, which:are leased to peivite fish and game clubs. At a coadItion of such lease each club must provide at least two :ganee -war- dens who are licensed by the Govern.' meet. As exempla there are 1,000 fish and game, Wardens in addition to the regular Corps Of 125, thue.providing at no Mipeese to the Govelmment, far larger niimber of men to protect the gaine than the Government' could sup- ply from Publicefunds. , Proof. of the increase of gate in the provIneewoulcl seem tet be given in the fact that re- cently, under cover of night, a moose peaetratedt to the very heart tot Que- bec City, where it was ahot, .
