D. Idleman of Salem spent the week end with the latter’s sister, Mrs. A. S. Johnson and family. ‘ November will bring down the final curtain on 1941 big game hunting. The Eastern Oregon elk season opened November 1 and continues through November 16, while bear hunting will be in order during the entire month of November. Trapping of bear is unlawful this year according to the Oregon State Game Commission. Because of heavy rains in the elk area, chains will be necessary on cars in 50 per cent or more of the area, according to reports ol field men employed by the game commission. Hunters should also be equipped with shovels. *F.lk are generally running in large herds and, while very abun- di\n* in all areas, are widely scat tered. Elk are using the most dense thickets they can find, and because forage is abundant, they $ire not forced out into openings and meadows to feed - One elk of either sex is the bag limit this year. A special elk tag for residents costs $5 and is re quired in addition to the regular hunting license. Out-of-state hunt ers must pay $15 for a non-resi dent elk tag. Gun regulations _______ make it unlaw- ful to hunt elk with guns smaller than 30 calibre except, when using cartridges with bullets of not less than 1,400 foot pounds energv at 100 yards distance, or weighing not less than 150 grains or with any other than long bows and biqadhead hunting arrows. Game department officials warn hunters that elk carcasses must be cared for properly. To do this, the carcass should be bled and the entrails removed immediately af ter the elk has been killed, then should be left hanging until thor oughly Cool. Under no circum stances should an elk carcass be transported, until the coolmgout process hfrS been completed.
