PUBLIC WARNED TO
STAY OFF BREVARD
’ WATERSHED LANDS
Minimum Fine Of $50 When
,, Caught Trespassing—11
Men Before Mayor
To trespass on the Town of Bre
vard watershed is a rather serious
offense, and is punishable by the
minimum fine of $50 and costs. Tills
was pointed out by Mayor Harris at
the weekly session of mayor’s court
Monday night when live leva' men
were before him for trespassing.
The five men were taking a narrow
cut from the Looking C.lass road j
project to Brevard and crossed tne
watershed without knowing it. thej
told the mayor. Patrolman J. P- j
Denver, who arrested the men last
Thursday, expressed the opinion that:
the men were telling the truth in the i
matter, and said that none of the ]
men had firearms and that they did,
net leave the trail at any time.
Mayor Harris imposed the mini
mum fine of $50, and costs in the i
case amounting to $3.25 each. He
suspended the fine, stating that he
was convinced the men had no inten-;
tion oi violating the law, but pointed
out the fact that trespassing m any
manner on the watershed could not
be countenanced.
Eleven men faced his honor Sion-!
day night—three fc public drunken-1
ness, lour for fighting, one for viol-;
atioti of city license ordinance, and ■
five for trespassing on the water-,
shed. |

Deer Hunters In Quandary Over Law
Affecting Transportation of Game
With the first of three hundred
hunters scheduled to start the an
nual Pisgah Forest hunt Monday
morning, question is being raised as
to the advisability of killing doc
deer.
Federal regulations, under which
ne hunt in the national forest is
conducted, allow a hunter to kill one
deer, whether it be a buck or dde.
the only restrictions in the matter
being that no fawns shall be taken.
Pier ovci one and one-lia!f years old
are only supposed to be killed.
W. P. Duncan, in charge of Pis
gah Forest, said Tuesday that he had
notified all hunters who are sched
uled to come here during tiie period
from Nov. 25 to December If, that
there is possibility of their running
afoul of state regulations, if and
when they take doe deer ol'f the Pis
gith National Forest receive.
Mr. Duncan said that the federal
regulations nrotected hunters while
they uere on the forest lands, but
(hat il was a violation of the state
game law us passed through efforts
o! the Department of Conservation
and Development to have dee deer
in possession anywhere in the- state
except while on the federal lands
with permit.
Headquarters for the hunt will he
at the rink Beds this year, where
* he (becking station will be located.
While this station is located ten
miles from Brevard, it is expected
that most of the out-of-state men
will make their headquarters here
for the three days they are on the
hunt, or until a kill is made.
Last year there were 385 hunters
entered the forest, 315 of this num
ber each killing one deer. The aver
age number of bucks ran better than
two-to-one does, in the numbei
checked out last year, according to
Mr. Duncan.
Purpose of tlie hunt, the forestry
division sets out, is to thin out the
over-production of deer in the.forest,
and the chief reason for allowing
hunters to take out either doe 1
buck is that many of the people who
come here for the annual hunts are
inexperienced sportsmen, and very
often kill doe thinking it is v. buck.
Then, the natural assumption would
be, that the hunter finding be bad
killed a dee by mistake would be to
j leave it. rather than face prosecution ]
by the federal forest authorities
! vvere there restrictions on doe. White |
! the average sportsman has an avtr
sion to killing doe deer, taking every
thing into consideration, Mr. Dun-1
can and othei oliicinls are of the
opinion that the present regulation?!
I arc by far the best. j
I It is very probable that the fail
i ure of the state conservation depart-1
| incut to allow courtesy of hauling,
I doe deer from the forest will cut the'
number of hunters at least one-third l
this year. Heretofore there has been j
an agreement between the state and
forest to allow the transportation ot i
doe when they have been taken from,
the national forest and bear the of-'
ficial seal of the checking station. ;

| IN USE IN COUNTY
Trench Storage Seen As Valu
able Asset To Growing
Beef Cattle Here
Approximately 250 ton* ot silage
has been properly stored in trem-h
silos in the county this fall, am! aI;
the feed is in perfect condition. The
various silos were checked Monday
by N. I. Farnham, dairy feed spec
ialist from Raleigh, and he stated
that the trenches opened here were
as good or better than any he had
seen this fall.
First silo opened was at the county
home farm where 50 tons hove, het r.
stored for use this winter, to be fed
to beeves, milkers and yearlings. Tht
agriculture class of Brevard high
school, Professor Colvard of Brevard
College farm, and several other in
terested citizens were pre.-ent to look
the feed ever.
Mr. Fa in ham explained to those
present that for beef cattle the
feeding of silage would rid ir< fin o
ing an animal off ready for market
in from 45 to 55 days, nr in ah at
half the time ordinarily taken in this
bounty. Further, counting all costs of
feed used, the iob could be dene at
less than two-thirds expense usually
incurred.
For feeders he recommended about
twenty pounds of silage per day, tw»
pounds of cotton seed meal and '
light forkful of lespedeza, clovi r.
soybean or other legumou* hay.
The average acre of land in Tran
sylvania county will grow around
eight tons of «i!agc, it is estimated,
and for a beef type feeder thi*
amount will care for ten animals fw
a month, or six acres to care for a.
herd of ten for six months, if they
were to be fed that long before mar
keting.
Eleven trench silos are in tise in
this county this year—one at the
county home, two at the Jordar
Whitmire farm at Cherryffeld, and
one each at the farms of T. J. Wil
son, Ed Patton, J. L. Gash, C. V
Shuford, J. W. Baynard, Vernon
