The bounty will he tllst-ontitltttai for an indefinite period rm and after April 30th. Officials of Pheasants Utilimilcd are of the opinion that a $3.00 bounty during the month of April (m oacll skunk killed during that period will rt‘- snlt in a drastic thinning out of the skunk population and wi-ll give such a setback that they will be easily controlled in future, par- ticulnrly so when tho animals are killed [yr-tor in the lirt-etlutr: season. The columnist has always been opposed to an increase in the skunk bounty over the prescribed one dollar. The skunk ls too deep- ly entrenched in this province to he eradicated entirely. . . the odor- ifcrous rascal is here to slay. I have seen their scrawlcy tracks along the sand hills of Black Banks and in the wilds of barges Ferry in Prince County and from thence to the wooded fastnesses of Glen- corrldele in King's County and am firmly of the opinion that even if the bounty were raised to p. $100.00 per snout for the inonth of April there would still be thousands of skunks left at the end of that time. There is no quick cure all for the skunk nuisance. Nothing but a steady pressure applied at the right tlme and an unrclaxlng vigilance by all concerned will keep their numbers down to reas~ enable bounds. Methinks the Department was well advised to stop payment of the bounty on kittens (young (H162) and on adult skunks during the late spring and summer ntonllls. It was an old stunt to place one snout. and some other parts of a skunk l-n n haklni: powder tin and leave it until tho nccuntttlatctl gases would r10 pop when lhc lirl was rc- motved. someone would then ap- rcar at the bounty office set the tin on the desk and say; "Then are four skunk snout: in that tin" hoping that the odor would be so bad that the clerk wouldn't hother to sort the lot out and tnake an accurate check. When lillormed that. thera was only one snout in the container the party who brought the alleged snouts to the office would shrug and remark,- "So and so said there were fnur in the tin". It is my opinion that the bounty office was far too len- ient in such cases. The objection this columnist has to raising the bounty from $1.)'i to $3.00 ls, unless it is maintained, that it defeats the purpose for which it was intended. Once a farm lad receives $3.00 for a snout, tr l. number of spouts, he has a lg. I l1 _:<§;:1't;a;;t"io7._f_r-..;jg.. , With-W Victoria Rink nockrv MATCH SATURDAY, APRIL 5th ALBANY ST. FATS Vs.
