Last Thursday saw a heavy run of
hogs in Wingham. There were fifty-
one farmers' delivered two hundred
and forty-four hogs in town that day.
At the G.T.R. yards there was a hustle

wagons, weighed and placed on the
cars. This is the largest delivery of
hogs that has-been made in Wingham
in some years, and the farmers were

to specifications. Powerful scopes are
used so that a groundhog sitting up
at his den is a good target at 200
yards or more.
The high powered small calibre rifle
is less dangerous than the .22 low
powered rifle. The high powered rifle
shell disintigrates when it comes in
contact with grass or twigs. On the
other hand the low powered .22 rifle
shell ricochets when it strikes an ob
ject, and where the bullet falls no one
could ever guess" In a great many in
stances parents buy their sons .22 low
powered rifles because they think a
gun of this type is less dangerous.
This gun will shoot over a mile and,
therefore, all precautions should be
observed before firing.
The groundhog is considered a pest
on the farm and if left unmolested
will create many hazards by digging
deep in the fields. These act as traps
for farm animals and machinery, and
often cattle and horses have to be de
stroyed after having broken a leg in
a gronudhog den. Most farmers are
pleased to have these pests shot but
hunters should contact the property
owner before trespassing. During the
warmer months of the year when the
landowner is working on his fields
and the farm animals are out in pas
ture, the hunter should always use
extreme caution before firing. You can
understand why a farmer working on
his land is provoked when an irre
sponsible person is shooting indis
criminately. If you have ever heard
the whine of a rifle bullet over your
head you would realize how a farmer
would react toward you. This is one
of the main reasons why permission
to trespass on private land should be
obtained.
Years ago many landowners did not
realize they had the power to stop
anyone from trespassing on their
land. To-day most landowners know
their authority and realize it is their
privilege to allow on their property
only those whom they wish. The arro
gant attitude of some people who tres
pass, damage.property and sometimes
kill livestock, spoils the good hunters'
chances of hunting on many farms.
Remember it only takes one fool with
a gun to spoil it for the other ninety-
nine.
The license purchased from the
Department of Lands and Forests
gives authority to carry the gun only,
and does not give permission to tres
pass. Most landowners will give good
hunters permission to hunt on their
property, providing you go to his
home and request same, rather than
entering his property from the rear.
We would like at this time to pass
on a word or two of caution. The land
you hunt on in most of Southern
Ontario is privately owned and per
mission to hunt should be obtained
from the landowners. Shoot only when
you Ute Certain it is safe. Respect the
farmers’ land, fences, crop, animals,
and above all respect his rights to
which he is entitled. If you follow
these principles hunting will be a
pleasure.
