Evening Republican, Volume 19, Number 82, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 7 April 1915 — Deer May Be Killed. [ARTICLE]

Deer May Be Killed.

The house of representatives in Connecticut adopted a bill which permits the killing of deer wit ha shotgun on one’s own land at any time in the year. The senate rejected the bill. Members of the house declared that the deer were a nuisance and that there are more in Connecticut than any other state in the union, and that it is not an uncommon sight to see a herd of 25 deer in a farmer’s barnyard and that the peach and apple crops suffer greatly from them.
