that lacking nourishment, then the
deer will be thin and scrawny and ill
prepared for the rigors of winter.
IA dry, hot summer and a hard win-
ter are a deadly combination for the
deer and many of them perish in the
snow before spring opens up again.
Last winter was a bad one for the
deer and many died for want of food.
I know of twu, ohwever, that surviv-
ed the ordeal with little trouble, but
they were tin usually fortunate.
The fortunate two were a doe and
her young fawn. I made their ac-
quaintance one morning 'last January
when 'I had ridden to the foot!hilffls
to feed our range cattle. Our feed
yard is located against the hills as a
protection from the wised. There we
usually have several great stacks of
alfalfa hay and winter our cattle und-
er long, low •sheds.
This morning a doe and her fawn
were standing outside the corral
fence, The fawn was in good condi-
tion, as it 'had been living on its mo-
ther's mi'lk, but the doe was so thin
S could almost count her ribs under
the coat of brown, As I approached
they .bounded away in 'the snow, ,but
the doe was so weak that she stumbl-
ed gild fell. ,She regained her feet in
an instant and was off in the brush,
but .I !anew that she could" never sur-
vive the winter.
'After !I 'had finished filling the
mangers with hay and had ,warmed up
the gasoline engine and pumped the
troughs full of water for the cattle,
1I carried a little bundle 'of feed to the•
spot where the deer had stood in the
snow outside our fences. I felt sure
that thy would come back.
When I returned the ,next morning
there was not a single wisp of hay
left. !It was evident that the doe and
her fawn had been there and gone,
so I left another bundle of hay for
them. Always when I returned in the
morning the hay was gone, :but it was
several days before I had :another
sight of the deer. They were standing
at the fence one very cold morning,
as if waiting, my coning, but they fled
as soon as I approached-.
Ae the days passed, however, and
the deer learned to know rte, they
became less timid. They would stand
at some distance from the fence,
watching rte, until I had left the cor-
ral, and then they would come up
and eat the hay. And after a time they
became still more brave and would
stand and munch the hay while I
went about my work. At first they
were ever on the alert and ready to
bound away, but at last they carte to
regard me as a friend and would not
show the slightest concern at my
movements. I could even approach
the fence at which they stood eating,,
though they would never .allow fie to
touch them.
II fed the doe and her fawn their
Tittle armfuls of hay all winter. As
soon as spring came and tiny 'bunches
of grass appeared among the sage
.bru,slh, they vanished in'bo the foot-
'Wis. No doubt they have eumnsered
ou b!lueabells and elderberry leaves.
Suit I have been wondering what
will become of niy two deer, .and the
thousands of others that inhabit our
moun'taius; this coming winter. We
have 'had the dryest of many dry
summers. The mountain.grasses have
been thin and brittle the leaves lave
Withered on oak and quaking aspen:
What are our deer to live on through
the long winter?
II'1 my twee, deer return' to ore this
winter, I shall have nothing to. offer
Their. They will perhaps i+a •r, r
h along with a thousand others. It
is to be hoped'. that frons some source
will ,come succor for our dumb friende
of the mountains.
