Hunters survey results About 20,000 Oregon hunters have been sent survey ques tionnaires again this winter as part of a program aimed at better game management and improvement of hunting in the state. The annual hunter survey is conducted by Oregon State University's Survey Research Center under a $33,920 con tract from the Oregon Depart ment of Fish and Wilflife. Mailed to a 5 per cent sample of hunters licensed in Oregon, the survey represents one of the primary means of obtaining estimates of hunter activity and success. Hunters are asked to report kill of deer, elk, bear, upland game (pheasant, quali, partridge, grouse, sage hens, mourning doves, band-tailed pigeons and silver gray squirrels) and water fowl (ducks, geese, snipe and coots). ' Hunters are also asked to give their opinions on hunting and wildlife programs in Oregon. Last year. 14,440 of the 18.799 hunters surveyed returned completed question naires to the OSU Survey Re search Center. Information went into the university com puter for statewide and regi onal analysis. CM ' L t " Lyle D. Calvin, chairman of the Department of Statistics, is project leader; Helen Low ry, project coordinator. "Hunter comments, ranging from praise to criticism, demonstrate that the actions of the Department of Fish and Wildlife constitute a balancing act between providing a good hunting experience for as many hunters as possible, while maintaining and sup porting the various game populations in Oregon," Cal vin observed. Findings from questionnai res are published by the Survey Research Center in April. Estimates for 1974 included : Deer: 303.110 hunters; 2.046.538 days of hunting; 76.402 deer killed. Elk: 106,200 hunters; 643.910 days; 14,071 killed. Bear: 16.720 hunters; 133.353 days; 1,703 killed. Archery hunters: 19.900; 136.223 days: 1.343 deer killed, 429 elk. 124 bear. Waterfowl : 56.038 hunters. 523.393 ducks killed; 54,560 geese; 24.131 snipe; and 57.695 cools. Upland game: 87.736 hunt ers: 583.163 days; killed: 168.378 pheasants; 140,559 qu ail; 106.654 chukar partridge: 18.224 Hungarian partridge; 60.523 blue and ruffled grouse; l.Wfisage hens; 161.113 mour-, ning doves: 59.645 band tailed pigeons; 13.173 silver gray, squirrels.

Ety flnw pltm &tUbl: s rain iwJoroatLuL Yeur FrUndly Utl Ct?trtW Lexington By Does your horse chew wood during the winter and early spring months? If he does this Is a fairly common practice, especially when the horse Is kept In a small enclosure. This is a nervous habit caused by lack of something to do and most times this problem can be solved by simply turning your horse out to pasture where he can run and play. All horses need daily exercise, and become bored If they don't get It During bad weather It can be a problem to exercise your horse, so you may need an alternate solution. I have a few suggestions that might help. If you can't turn him out, give your horse some toys. Rig up a ball or a plastic Jug on a rope and hang It in the stall or on the fence, where he can play with it. You may need to knock It around and play with him to give him the Idea. Gunny sacks (cloth feed bags! or a paper box make a great toy for horses as they enjoy tossing them around. Just use your Invagination until you find something that will keep him busy. Be careful no to choose anything that might hurt him. You should paint the wooden boards or fence posts that your horse is chewing. There are two things you can use, creosote and the other which I prefer is lard or shortening which I smear on these areas. It sure stops the chewing. Used lard may be obtained In large quantities from cafes. Wood chewing can be bad for your horses health for if he chews too much wood he may Ingest some of the splinters. This is hard for their digestive system to break down If at all. It also causes some Intestinal disturbances or Infections. Is your horse guilty of one of the worst habits horses can have? Cribbing? This is a mental habit learned by; Imitation of other horses that have had the problem; or through boredom. A cribber closes his teeth on wood or any other convenient surface; extends his neck and sucks In air. swallows usually making a grunting sound. This air fills his stomach and giving him the false illusion that be Is full. The horse will start to loose weight, because he loses his appetite and he doesn't eat properly because he Isn't hungry. I know of no cure for a bad cribber. There are many types of cribing straps and devices on the market that will prevent cribbing if used continuously. The best is a crib strap fastened snugly around the throat latch area so his wind is cut off when he stretches his neck and impairs this retching effect and discourages cribbing. There are heavy gauged steel muzzles that are effective. The horse can eat and drink easily but can't crib when wearing this device. Another alternative is to put him in an alt steel paddock and barn, for horses don't like to put their teeth on steel objects. With no known cure the best news is prevention. Keep your horse exercised and give him something to entertain himself with when you are gone. If his mind is active he won't be bored, then these serious and dangerous problems can be prevented. Listed below is a question and answer for the novice horseman: Q. What is the normal pulse rate for a horse? A. The normal pulse rate for a horse is between 28 to 42 beats per minute depending on the age, temperment, and amount of the exercise the horse has had. It can be taken on any artery where you can feel the heart beat, usually under the forearm where the artery travels down the leg.
