Nature In its lavlid preparation ol this country as a lindltatlon and Irvaturs) ttouso f jr man has created a wealth il mountain with loretta and plains, with marah and tangled giro, with crystal lakes, pearling streams, grassy mead ows and buihy hills, nearly all fairly well stocked with fish and gams, for the) use and pleasure ol man, And yet her work In it was not complete as though left (or man In tin lid.eltdsr in whole or In part. Not In creation, but in the alockiugol her pro. serves with the animal life to wdlcd they seem especially adapted. The writer recently stood upon one of the peaks of our western range ol moun tains and saw as a vast laaorsma, al most the entire county spread out be (oie him; its rivers its plains, its moun tain! with Idelr grren (uresis, and moat wondrous ol all twenty lakes, more than half ol Idem land locked. Most of Ideas lakes, seemingly made specially to afford sport aud.recrratinn (or the angler, were tcnantleaa tn (ar as the tinny tribe was concerned, Juat waiting as It were to be stocked with rainbow trout, other as Hwan lake, Aspen and Kound Lakes, with their shallow vegitabln covered bosom i, awnkjlng tde advent ol the cat (lih and thn musical bull frog.

And lis former drnitcna of tdo lurry skin are last dis appearing wild no hope ol their ever Mng replaced, unless hy the rautkrat. In tho early aelitomeiil of thia county the spring limo was resonant with the calls nl the myriads ol water (owl, the mating call ol the prairie cock, tho cur lew and the plover, while the air waa vibrant atevo tldit with the whirr of wings as the lowls sought their nightly (coding grounds or their roosts. Today while we have a (air supply ol water lowl still left, their numbers are sadly decimated')))' Ida pot huulor and the nest thief, but our upland birds, tdo saga hen, the prairie hen, the cuilew said plover, them remain a scattering remnant ol sage hens only.

It la perhaps too late to restock our western ranges with the mountain aheep, antelope and mule deer that hate been swept away by tde rapacious and cousclouslrss hide hunter and self-styled sport, who fvand those animals here in rountlea s thoutands years ago, but much could laa done to protect the few mule deer yet remaining, from rstinctlon. Tde anteloe, being a plain's animal, was Ids first to dlaappear, followej very cloaely by the mountain aheep, less numsrotia and less widely dlatriboled; but Ksateni Klamath ami the more mountainous parts of take County are still Inhabited bv the remnants ol Ide once mighty herds of mule deer. , These deer, gregarious in tdair habits, would collect In large dsrds In tde (all ol the year and travel to the lower hills and sag plains to winter. Olleu many thousands would be in a single herd, and when the heavy winter stortrs cov ered their (coding grounds would keek shelter Jo the deep rocky canyons where tdeycould'escspe the storms ami tlsiaj brush on which to lite. Taking ad vantage nl this (act the hide hunters would lollow them to. this canyon, wdsnr. being trapped and unable to vscaw, entire herds were ruthlessly butchered, thslr skins only being taken Aa an Illustration of the relentless slaughter of these animals, it Is slated that ono firm shipped from a small Kaslern Oregon town in the spring ol 1890, two hundred and fifty t lousand deer pelts, of this number twenty-five hundred, or one tenth ol the number, was furnished by one party ol two hnn tere. v- We have a (airly good game law, II it was eolorced, but too many regard It M a Joke to evade Its provisions and elaugh Isr game regardless ol season or sex.
