Anyone planning to hunt deer this fall should besure of the law in re- gard to same, . The following is an explanation of the law which may snake it clearer: There i,aa partial buck law in ef- fect which provides that the shoot- Mg of does of fawns is prohibited exbept,that any party ojf four hunt- ers is entitled to one doe or fawn—• bhe other three, of the kill must be bucks, though unquestionably the entire kill of four deer which such party of four might take could be bucket A party .musts demist of eight !members before they are en- titled to 'tw'e. does or fawns, ;and the dog was very essential in locat. further two does or fawns is the ing woundes deer and also in assist- ing the hunter to .secure buck deer which is desirable at any time and which has now been anade oompui- sory under the present name and Fisheries Act. This being the case an endeavor was made to frame ,a Regulation to ,,allow sufficient dogs for this purpose and yet not •permit: large packs of dogs to be taken into the woods by any separate hunting partly. As these provisions now stand there must be an organized party of four before the use of a clog is per- mitted -land in such case one dog only. Unlike the privilege which ap- plies to the taking of two does 'or fawns, the use of two dogs, is per- mitted to any party of five, six, sev- en or eight 'hunters. There must be nine or more hunters in a party be- fore the use of the maximum: num- ber of three dogs permitted ` under the Regulations would .be allowed. The object of this is to prevent mors than one ,or two dogs being aliowe, to run deer at one time by the part in whose possession they may found. It is necessary that each do so. used for the hunting of deer b licensed at a fee of $2, It has been provided that it sha be unlawful to molest or shoot de while swimming in the water of an lake or river, though this does no prevent the shooting of deer about t, enter the water or after having left Yr and bringing them out of camp. M'em'bers of hunting camps who have secured camp deer licenses could legally consume a doe or fown in vamp, of in the case of a party of eight members who had two camp deer licenses, thew could legally con- sume two does or fawns, though they would then, of course, Ste ob!lig- ed to bring out only buck deer ac- cording to the number of licensed hunters in the party. In the case of the use of dogs. Those in favor of dogs frequently argued when the question was up for discussion from time to time thati limit for any party regardless of its numbers. Some would argue that it is difficult --bo detect the difference between a buck and, a doe under cer- tain. eondibionswhen hunting. The Department is willing to .gonce$e the Possibility of mistake with the re- sult that provision is thus made to legalize the taking of ,one doe or fawn by a party of four' hunters, and two does or fawns by a party of eight hunters' or more; and "thus make allolwance for what might be termed mistakes by the hunter. There are some who have the im- pression that there must be, in 'the dase of a hunting party of say four, three bucks killed before they may legally kill a doe or fawn. This is not correct as it may so happen that a party of four, or any number less than eight might be so unfortunate during their hunt as to kill one deer only, and then possibly a doe or fawn. Similarly,, a party of eight or more hunters might take only two deer — does or fawns. In such cases as these and others in which the par- ties do not complete much less ex- ceed, the number of animals to 'which their licenses would entitle them, and the number of does and fawns involved not exceeding the number they are permitted to take e. there could be no reasonable objec- tion to them being in possession of the carcasses of such does or fawns l the water.
