Presumably the carcass Is now In tiie locker and Bud is thumb ing his nose at the high price of meat. THIS one has just drifted in from out In the Strawberry Flat country, where Harlan Bos worth, Marshall Cornett, Barney Barnhisel and a few other kin dred souls have been doing their bit to ease the meat shortage. Bos, less than a year back from the late unpleasantness in Eu rope, was not in a killing mood. He sat around camp for days and meditated, and drank in the beau ties of the autumn woods. His companions hunted with com mendable fervor but negligible results. i Eventually, Bos was touched by their misfortunes. Rising to the emergency about 10 o'clock one morning, he grasped his rifle, pulled In his belt a couple of holes, laced his boots tight and said to his companions in a firm and resolute tone: "I see I'll have to go out and get you a deer." Without further ado, he disap peared Into the underbrush and about a half hour later his com rades heard a shot. Not too long, thereafter, Bos walked Into camp ivilh a four-pointer hanging from his shoulders, wriggled out of the harness ho had fashioned from the creature's legs, dropped the carcass to the ground, dusted off his hands and said in a calm voice: "There's your deer." THIS is alleged to bo a steno graphic report of the ensuing comment: ,199991 t M M j,.,,, II" (Passed by tho board of censor ship.) f HAT recalls an Incident of this writer's younger and blood thirstier years. A group of rug ged souls was out In the high country with a saddle and pack outfit Five of us were conscien tious hunters. We rolled back our blankets- long before dawn, caught up the horses from the frosty meadow and ranged far and wide In search of venison fruitlessly, It must be hero re cdrded. Each mid-morning, we came In fagged and empty-handed. The sixth was a dilettante. He slept late, breakfasted In luxury, took an after breakfast nap and by the time we came In limp and winded he was disgustingly full of iep and high spirits. That went on for a week. There came eventually a morn ing when human flesh would no longer stand the strain and the five starry-eyed hunters stayed in bed until noon and then arose grumpy and out of sorts. About. mid afternoon, the dilettante stood erect, stretched, reached for his gun and announced in a bored voice that he reckoned he'd bet ter go out and get some meat or this outfit would be starved out. A couple of hours later a shot rang out in the middle distance, and in about 13 minutes the camp hound paced in with a forked-horn on his back. It seems he'd been overcome by lethargy a couple of hundred yards from lamp, had sat down, leaned his back against a windfall and had drifted off into gentle slumber. When he awoke, there was the forked-horn staring him in the face. He yawned, picked up his rifle, shot it in the neck, severing the jugular with the bullet and thus saving even the effort of bleeding It out. Thcre are times when this liuntiiig racket Just Isn't on the level. By CHARLES V. STANTON The Oregon Fisheries Committee (in other words the commercial fish packers) have at long- last come into the open with their arguments in opposition to the Coastal' Fish ing Bin, generally known, as Bill 312. As- in past years when a fish conservation measure was on tho ballot, the packers have delayed until the last moment before appearing with an extensive campaign of misrenre sentation and falsehood. They time opening of their program until too late to permit organized rebuttal of their untruths and count upon superficiality of their appeal to register with voters who do not take time to studiously inform themselves upon the issues involved. In the current campaign, as in their scurrilous fight against the Steelhead Bill in the election of 1942, they raise tno issue of diminishing Oregon's food supply. The 1942 election came at a time when Oregonians were food con scious. It was immediately after Pearl Harbor and voters were taken in by the campaign which pictured- sports fish ermen with daggers at the backs of American soldiers. Now the packers are appealing to voters with the slogan : "Don't Endanger Oregon' Food Supply." This is the most foolish argument that could be presented, if voters would take time to reason out the facts. If packers are continued to- have their way, we will have NO food fish left within a few years. .Sill 312, on the other hand, by forcing the industry to allow at least 8 minor es capement of fifih, will preserve a food supply. Let's settle this food question! At the last session of the state legislature the State Fish Commission reluctantly produced a statistical report. This report was withheld until the Governor demanded of the commission that the figures be furnished the legislature. They cover catches in all streams from 1929 to 1943. Thus 1943 is the last year for which the commission's compara tive figures are available and, therefore, are used for our computations. In that year the Columbia River yielded 11,561,913 pounds of food fish, while 392,255 pounds of troll caught fish (taken in the ocean outside the river) came into Columbia fisheries, or a total of 11,954,168 pounds for the Columbia, Which DOES NOT come under the provisions of Bill 312. At the same time, trawlers working south of the Columbia pro duced 783,327 pounds of food fish, for a grand total of 12,737,495 pounds of food fish, none of which would be affected by Bill 812. 'Net fishermen in the Nehalem, Tillamook Bay, Siletz, Yaquina, Alsca, Siuslaw, Umpqua, Coos Bay and Coquille, in 1943, caught 2,233,887 pounds of fish. Note this fact: Columbia and troll fish amounted to 12,737,495 pounds, while net-caught fish in waters to which Bill 312 would apply yielded only 2,233,887 pounds. Thus, if wo discontinued net fishing COMPLETELY, outside ,the Columbia River, it would take away only about ONE-SIXTH ; of. .our total supply of food fish. f ' s . But Bill 312 does NOT stop net fishing. It shortens the season, abolishes some set nets and provides other minor adjustments. . . . Applying the shortened seasons against the 1943 catch of fish in the above-mentioned streams, we get the following results: Loss Through 312 Lbs. 5,568 53,085 11,137 85 32,473 279, 12,866 35,726 10,418 The cash- savings accumulated hv U.S. consumers during World War II were as large as the total amount they actually srent for oodi a;id services in li)13. 1943 Catch Stream Lbs. Nehalem 173,247 Tillamook' 861,013 Silete 42,480 Yaquina " 92,757 Alsca 142,548 Siuslaw 131,287 Umpqua 382,132 Coos Bay - 219,483 Coquille 158,940 164,637 Total 2,233,887 Includes 22 pounds sturgeon and smelt. Now tako another look at those figures. Net fishermen in 1943 took 2,233,887 pounds of fish. Had Bill 312 been in operation in 1943, they would have lost 16-1,637 pounds of fish chiefly Steelheads. Now then, how much would Bill 312 reduce our total fish food supply? The catch in 19-13 was 12,737,495 pounds in the Columbia and on outside troll. The net-caught fish south of tho Columbia amounted to 2,233,887 pounds, or 14,971,382 pounds in all. Bill 312 operating in 19 13 would have reduced this catch by 164,637 pounds 116 per cent. IS THAT ENDANGERING OREGON'S FOOD SUPPLY? Bear this further fact in mind: 1913 was a big year com pared with 1945. The fish supply has been rapidly diminish ing and is threatened with extinction. Bill 312 is little enough protection for our fish life The packers would have you believe they are protecting your food supply. But what are the fish they catch during the period Bill 312 would force them to refrain from com mercial fishing? Those fish are Steelheads and overripe Sil- vcrside and Chinook salmon. They are NOT choice food fish. But you pay choice prices for them "in the market. That's why the greedy packers don't want to let them go. Don't be fooled Vote 312, Yes. Absentee Ballot Deadline Cited " Wednesday', October 30, Is the deadline for voting in the com ing general election by absentee ballot, County Clerk Roy Agee remined todav. The ballots must be in the hands of tho clerk's of fice five davs before tlie elec tion, November 3. Twpnty-slK absentee voters thus far have iaM their bailors, and "quite a- fvw" others have taken ballots but uot yet returned them: Absentee ballots will be Issued uoon any written application, to voters wno expect to be out or to those who mnv be confined due to Illness. There in no speci fied form for such applications, except for a designation of the voter's residence and precinct.

Douglas Fir Cones Will be Set Out in Diamond Rock Burn Thirty bushels of Douglas fir cones, which have been collected this oast month in the vicinitv of Tiller, eventually will be set out In the old Diamond Koc( burn as two-year-old seedlings in a re forestation plan for the Umpqua National Forest. The cones will be sent to the Wind River Nursery at Carson, Wash., for their start as seed lings, said M. M. Nelson, forest supervisor. The burn in which they will be transplanted is 10 miles south of Tiller. For the seedlings to grow suc cessfully, the cones must have been collected in the same area as the young trees arc to bo set out, Nelson explained. For in stance, seedling trees developed from cones collected at sea level would not grow in the mountain elevations of the Umpqua Na tional Forest. In charge of the reforestation protect at Tiller is Melvin An drews, assistant ranger for the South Umpqua district. Andrews nas nan mucn experience in ior est nursery work In the Great Lakes states, where the Forest Service developed such projr-cis in cooperation with the CCC. The 30 bushels of cones were collected under Andrews' super-' vision and he will also direct the planting of the young trees, Nel son said. It is expected that some seed lings will lie transplanted in the Diamond Rock burn next soring. These young trees, however, will not have been aeveiopea irom tne shipment of cones now on its way to the Forest Service nursery at Wind River, but from an earlier shipment.
