Groundhog Hunting
Provides Good Sport
For Local Hunters
If it required as much lead, in pro
portion, to kill a bear as it does to
kill a groundhog, Ursus would be the
most formidable animal on earth, ac
cording to local hunters. While, how
ever, they are willing and happy to
see the groundhog population in rural
areas reduced, they are even
anxious that the •’kills” be
quickly and cleanly.
Groundhog 'shooting is gqod
hunters say. To Hunt them, a licence
must be obtained from the 'Depart
ment. The licence covers also crows,
starlings and English sparrows, and if
the sportsman happens to shoot a few
foxes there is no objection since there
is no closed season for foxes.

Many Want Jobs in
Forestry Towers
There is a big demand for jobs in
forestry towers, those lonely eyries
from which sharp-eyed men and wom
en watch over thousands of miles of
Ontario's bushlands, guarding against
forest fire. Few such jobs are avail
able, however, without special quali
fications, according to the Depart
ment of Lands and Forests.-
Applications have been received
from school teachers, students, travel
lers, paroled convicts or authors who
want a quiet retreat in which to write
a book. Most of the successful appli
cants, however, are trappers former
prospectors and rangers who have an
interest in the country and know how
to live alone in the bush, which is im
portant. Good physique is required,
too, for many towers are 80 feet
and have
a day.
There are two schools of thought
about hunting groundhogs. The farm
er, whose crops are' damaged and
whose horses may be injured by step
ping, into groundhog burrows, inches
to the belief that the best cure is a
load of shot from a shotgun fired
from the closest vantage point. It is
not easy, however, to get close to
groundhogs but, with a high-powered
.rifle, usually equipped with telescopic
sights, they are picked off often at
200 yards. If the hunter is wise, of
course, he will make sure that a miss
doesn’t mean that his bullet goes a
mile to three miles beyond the target.
Many boys with air rifles hit
groundhogs, but there isn’t much like
lihood of killing them with BB’s. Even
the .22, using long rifle cartridge, has
to be aimed carefully or the ground
hog ducks into his burrow after being
hit, there to suffer until he dies.

Fat and sassy, at this time of year,
the groundhog bulks large in rifle
sights. Bullets may penetrate only the
fat and cause him little more than
inconvenience. It’s best to stalk them
until close enough for a head shot or
a shot that will kill the animal quick
ly and mercifully. Most farmers will
grant sportsmen permission to shoot
over their land but ask permission
first. Don’t walk over muddy grain
fields. Don’t shoot at mail boxes or
into barns. It is illegal to shoot across
any road or lane and, if private prop
erty is destroyed, charges may be laid
under the Criminal Code. Remember,
too, that a .22 bullet, on occasion, will
carry for a mile unless it is stopped
by a groundhog.
Incidentally, groundhogs may be
eaten. They’re fatty, though, and it is
best to roast them on a grid to get rid
of the fat.
Regular, thorough ' medical check
ups by your doctor may help to find
cancer at a time when it will respond
to treatment.
