Pet Catskill Deer
Done In, Even After
Elaborate Precautions
MONTECELLO, N.Y., UP>—Baby,
a tame deer who had the run of
this Catskill mountain town, is
dead. He was shot by a hunter
even though he had “pet” painted j
on each flank and a red plaid
shirt and paid of dungarees tied
around his neck.
Baby, who ate spaghetti and
meatballs, was adopted by Mr. j
and Mrs. Norman Pittaluga after
the deer’s mother was killed by j
an automobile. Every day the ani
mal made a trip to meet the three
Pittaluga children at the school
bus stop. The animal also en- I
joyed eating hamburgers, bana
nas and canned dog •food.
With the hunting season on,
' ' • Baby was painted and dressed up
to prevent his being mistaken for
a wild deer.
The hunter, not identified, was
asked if he didn’t see the clothes
around Baby’s neck. The answer:
“I thought he ran through a
clothes line.”
Didn’t he see the word “Pet”
on Baby’s sides Reply: “I thought
he fell into some paint.”

Idaho Munitions Firm
Will Supply Ammo, to
Eskimo Village Hunters
LEWISTON, Idaho, UP — A
Lewiston munitions firm has re
sponded to an Alaska bush pilot’s
plea for amunition to keep alive
an Eskimo tribe which subsists
by hunting through the winter.
Vernon Speer, owner, told a
business group a shipment of 3,090
bullets, together with instruction
manuals, is being forwarded for
shipment to the Nunamuit tribe
in the Brooks Range, in northern
Alaska, at no charge.
A letter from Harry L. Fisher,
a pilot and factory representa
tive from Kent, Wash., told of
the plight of the .tribe. He said it
had no ammunition to kill caribou,
its main means of subsistence. He
said it was settled in Anaktavuk
Pass, south of Bettesben.
“I have been a bush pilot for
years and know a little of what
they are up against,” Fisher
wrote, adding that he was gath
ering amunition for them.
Speer also said his firm will
contact other manufacturers
about providing the tribe with
powder, primers, cartridge cases
and loading tools.

‘Examined and
Passed’ to be Test
Of Pure Cranberry
WASHINGTON, UP — The gov
ernment yesterday approved a
plan for making plentiful sup
plies of uncontaminated cran
berries available for Thanks
giving.
Secretary Arthur S. Flemming
of the Department of Health,
Education and Welfare said lots
of cranberries already tested and
found to be uncontaminated may
be marketed if they contain this
statement:
“Examined and passed by the
Food and Drug Administration of
the U. S. Department of Health,
Education and Welfare.”
Cranberries from lots totaling
more than four million pounds al
ready have been tested and
found to be5 free of contamination
from the weed killer Aminotria
zole.
Flemming said the plan, worked
out with representatives of the
cranberry industry would:
1. Assure proper testing of fresh
cranberries and processed cran
berry products in all stages of
marketing — wholesale and retail
— before they are offered to the
consuming public.
2. Povide for approved labels
which the housewife can look for
to be sure the package, can or
bottle she buys is from tested
cranberries.
In the West, Secretary Flem
ming received both criticism and
support in the controversy.
Heber Thompson of Cowiche,
Wash., president of the Washing
ton State Farm Bueau. said in
Seattle that Flemming “chose to
take punitive action against an
entire industry in a totally un
warranted show of power.”
But at Coos Bay, Ore., Dr. J. J.
Van Gasse, Coos County Health
Officer, told reporters that cran
berry growers were “unsophis
ticated” if they were really sur
prised at Flemming’s announce
ment.
Van Gasse said some Washing
ton and Oregon growers used the
weed killer Aminotiazole although
they “certainly knew there was a
question” about it.
“There are many indications
they misused it,” he added.
Nolan Servoss, Pacific County
Extension Agent, agreed in South
Bend, Wash., that some cran
berry growers in the Northwest
used the weed killer in violation
of instructions. But he added:
“I’m convinced the bulk of the
growers who used it, and they
were only a small percentage of
growers, knew what they "were
doing and did not put berries on
the market. A lot of sprayed ber
ries were deliberately sacrificed,
to clean up the weeds.”
