WILDLIFE NOTES
by Hugn U. Forester
State Ranger
{jococooocoocxxwooood:
MENTONE C O N SE R VATIO N
For all interested in hunting
and conservation, the following
article by Mr. F. R. Bell will
prove of interest. Mr. Bell lives
at Mentone and at a recent
state wide meetiiTg of the Alaba¬
ma Wildlife Federation was
voted ’The Conservationist of the
Year.”
The Mentone Conservation
Club received a shipment on
December 13 of eight wild tur¬
keys which were trapped in
South Alabama on one of the
State refuges. This shipment
consisted cf four hen turkeys
and four gobblers, and were re¬
leased about the center of Look¬
out Mountain Game Refuge.
These turkeys arrived in good
.shape and took to the woods on
release just as if it was their na¬
tive habitant.
This is the first shipment of
turkeys that has been received
by the Mentone Club, but we
have a premise that more tur¬
keys will be sent us as fast as
they are trapped. The only limit
to the number will be just how
many of these wise old birds
they are able to get to go into
the traps, for, as most sportmen
know, though the tame turkeys
do some very foolish things,
their wild kinfolks, however, are
the smartest game birds that
the hunter has to deal with, and
sometimes it is very difficult to
get the wild turkeys to go into
traps, regardless of how 7 care¬
fully they may be camouflaged.
The State Conservation De¬
partment Is planting 12 acres of
oats, rye and wheat in various
palces scattered over the refuge
to provide winter food for the
deer and turkeys and other
wildlife that now occupy the re¬
fuge.
In our opinion, as a result
from a recent check of the game
on the refuge, there has been a
noticeable increase of squirrels
and quail during the past two
years, and with the cooperation
of every good sportman and the
property owners in keeping
down the destructive forest fires
and the depredations cf those
who may see fit to violate the
law by invading the refuge, we
feel like in a few years this re¬
fuge may be opened by the go¬
vernment for a limited amount
of hunting.
So that everyone may be fa¬
miliar with the law and not run
afoul of it, we wish to advise
that no hunting of any kind is
allowed on the refuge, nor is a
person allowed to carry firearms
into the woods or carry a dog
with him through the woods for
fear that the dog might chase a
deer, or that the hunted might
be tempted to shoot something
else besides hawks and crows.
The present law prohibits the
hunting of turkey and deer in
all counties in Alabama except
the following: Balwin, Bibb, But¬
ler, Chilton, Choctaw, Clark, Co¬
necuh, Coosa, Covington, Dallas,
Escambia, Greene, Hale, Henry,
Houston, Jefferson, Meringo,
Mobile, Perry, Pickens, Sumter,
Tuscaloosa, Walker, Washing¬
ton, Wilcox, St. Clair and Shel¬
by. It can be seen from the fore¬
going list that it is unlawful to
kill a deer or turkey in DeKaib
County any time whether on the
refuge or not, and the law also
provides that a $50.00 minimum
fine for killing a wild turkey and
a minimum $250.00 fine for kil¬
ling a deer in prohibitive area.
We regret to report that there
has been several packs cf dogs
chasing the wild deer on the
refuge, and only recently two
dead deer were found in the
woods, having been chewed bad¬
ly by dogs or .some wild animal.
Just whether or not they were
killed by the dogs could not be
determined, but it is a violation
to let a dog run loese in the
woods without its owner. There¬
fore, the game wardens are
making a drive to catch and
impound all such dogs found
running loose on the refuge, no¬
tifying the owners of the dogs
who may redeem them, accord¬
ing to law at $25.00 per head
plus a proper amount for feed¬
ing the dogs while being im¬
pounded. All dogs which are not
identified and called for by the
owner within a reasonable time
will be disposed of or destroyed.
The club also wishes to an¬
nounce that the shipment of
9.000 bream was recieved cn
December 13 from the Stat^
Hatchery, near Anniston. These
fish were put in the DeSoto Ri¬
ver above the dam at Riverside
Hotel. This makes a total of over
70.000 bream which have been
placed in the river at Mentone,
there being also ^0,000 bass

and coughing, a cold
probably gets less sym¬
than any other ill person.
One reason may be that most

a cold as just a temporary
Another reason for
this lack of sympathy might be
that people realize a cold is
catching and so they avoid the
sufferer.-The person who care¬
lessly spreads his cold germs by
neglecting to cover his coughs
and sneezes with his handker¬
chiefs or tissues is especially
unpopular.
For the so-called “common

cold at the time the symp¬
first appears, but his cold

himself starts coughing and
The cold germ — a virus so
it cannot be seen under an
ordinary microscope—is usually
spread by direct contact. Things
like sitting in a draft and get¬
ting wet feet are not sufficient
in themselves to produce a cold.
But doctors believe that sudden
changes in temperature and ss-
ve:e chilling or wetting sensitize
the membranes of the nose and
nose and threat and makes a
person more vulnerable to cold
germs. Cold germs can lodge be¬
fore hand in the membranes of
the nose and throat and not
“take hold” until sudden chill or
cold weaken surrounding tis¬
sues.
A cold, of itself, is never the
cause of death. If neglected or
ignored, however, a cold can
lead to serious illness or com¬

ing the past 12 months, and we
have a promise of additional

they can to cooperate and pro¬

The best way to avoid a cold
is to avoid those suffering from
colds. But since this is not al¬
ways practical, the best defens;
is building natural resistance
to all illness, mainly through
proper diet and sufficient rest.
If a cold does strike, despite
precautions, a person should get
as much rest as he can, and take
light and easily-digested foods,
such as soups, milk, and
juices. If possible, he should
stay at home. Prompt action
against the early symtoms of a
cold can mean ‘“licking” it in a
few days and perhaps warding
off a serious illness that might
have struck had the cold been
