Villepigue & Co. j Maine Deer Hag Sets All-Time Record Maine baa Just experienced the beat deer season In lta history. Earle Doucette of the Maine News Service reports. Hunters this fall have bagged 22,301 of the fleet-footed animals, exceeding the previous high of 22,209 deer set In 1940. Commissioner Stobie has estimated the bag yield about 2.076,120 pounds of meat, valued at nearly $1,000,000 -a thoroughly worthwhile contribution to the nation's meat supply. Little will be wasted. And despite this kill a sufficient number of animals is said to remain in the woods to make prospects bright for next year also. While the official Maine count of 1942 deer hunters is not yet available. unofficial estimates indicate that fewer hunters were in the woods this fall than last year. The saving in steel from drilling 13.000 fewer oil wells this year than las', is sufficient to build 26.000 tauks. or half a million 2-tou block buster bombs.
