ORCHARDISTS CAN
0NLYSH00 DEER
Oregon's deer may eat and destroy
all the apples thej wish, and the en
raged fruitgrower cau do no more
than shoo them away. In respouse
to numerous requests for permission
to kill the offending animals, the
State Fish and Game Commission
decided the last of the week that the
law was rigid and did not contain
the right to grant any permission to
kill t deer for this or other Intrusion.
The law of self-defense Is uot coun
tenanced liy the Commission.
There are many who scout the Idea
of a deer standing on his hind legs
and reaching an apple limb, but
Chairman Cranston, of the Commis
sion, solemnly affirmed tbat he had
a one horned cow which would stand
on her hind legs, hook the sole horn
over a limb and bring It down where
she could get the apples In her mouth.
