Put. the fnct ha been pretty w! established thi-t when compared with shoi'ii art' goats, as runy deer to lh'! acre may be kepi, and when a sale is made, a deer sells for many times the price of a sheep or goat. There is a story of a man in the Adirondack mountains in New York who owns 100 acres of land too rough to cultivate, and the growth too scant to support many cattle or sheep; but he keeps 150 common deer on the land, and he thinks he can keep 500. He is said to sell an average of two deer a week. The meat sells for 27 cents a pound, and the hide and horns bring additional reve nue; but the big money in rais ing deer, pheasants, and other game is in selling to the State for re-stocking game preserves. $100 is a fair price for a fine deer for this purpose. Raising deer on a commercial scale, or as a side line on our farms, is just like any other vocation; some brains must be mixed with the effort, and the idea that there is something to be had for nothing must be forgotten.
