OLDEST OF S T A T E S HAS LARGE POPULATION DEER It may astonish many to learn that Pennsylvania forests and mountain* are the haunt* of thou »amis of deer. The authorities of that state through effective pro teetive legislation and conserva­ tion, have caused a rapid increase to be made in the number of «leer. Another thing that contributes to th»* increase i* a lark of predatory animal*. If Oregon were free of cougar, wolves and other predatory animals the time proba-bly would soon come when tfie the state would have a* many or more »leer than were here when the first settler came. Cougars kill more deer than hunters. H. O. Preger Dies Henry G. Preger, a former resi­ dent of this city, dir«! at 4 o’clock Tuesday morning at the veterans’ hospital in Portland.
