Drops In
Local Area
SACRAMENTO---A final
tabulation of the buck kill
for 1962 disclosed that 54,,
909 bucks weretakenin 1962
comparedto69,118in 1961,
the Department of Fish and
Game announced this week.
The final’count was taken
Deg. 17.
The 1962 take was below
the average for the past five
years, except inthe northern
coastal counties and the
counties of Butte, Placer,
Calaveras, Merced, Kings,
and Imperial where the bag
topped the five year average.
The overall decrease in
hunter success this year was
attributed totwo main
causes. First, drought conditions from 1959to 1961 have
resulted in poor range and
water conditions for all deer.
This.inturn resulted in a declining fawn survival over
these years and further reducéd buck population.
Drought conditons seri-ously affected range conditionsin all parts of the state
except the northwest. Food
supplies were particularly
hard hit and leader growth on
browse plants prior to 1962
onthe ranges east of the Sierra and Cascades showed
very poor growth.
Herbaceous food, which
makes up a large portion of
the deer diet,.was similarly
affected. Sources of water
alsowere limited inthe
northeast, south coast, and
the southern part. of the state.
The DFG is currently conducting deer herd composition counts, and early indications are that fawn production in 1962 in some of the
major areas checked will be
markedly above that of the
past three years, This should
be reflected in more yearling
bucks inthese areas in 1963.
In Nevada County, the
1962 kill was 860 bucks compared with 1016 in 1961. Sierra County dropped from
922to 859, and Placer County also dropped from last
year, 866 to 899. Average
kill in Nevada County is
1059.

People today are enjoying
horses as much as they ever_ did, probably even more.
This isthe opinion of Car' roll E, Howell, professor of
animal husbandry on the
University of California's
Davis campus.
Pleasure horse riding is
rapidly becoming a top national pastime, says Professor Howell, who is one of
the West's most noted horse
authorities. In fact, the recent Presidential report on
Outdoor Recreation for America ranked horseback riding as more popular than such
sports as camping, hiking,
. water skiing and sailing. It
topped all other recreations
as the one that people wanted
to take up in the future.
A few months ago, a national magazine pointed out
that owning a horse is no
longer confined to the socially elite hunting set or to
keeping a pony for the rich
man's-child, These days, the
equestrianis more likely to
real
estate salesman, school
teacher, lawyer, or-engineer. Owning a horse has become a family affair, too,
‘said the magazine article, It
is estimated that 35 to 40 per
cent of active riders today
own their horses.
There seems to beno
single explanation for the
growing public interest in
horsemanship. More leisure
time, more money, the
movetothe suburbs, all
have been factors. Riding
undoubtedly has been given
an extra boost from the White .
House through the equestrian
activities of Mrs. Kennedy
and Caroline.
Paradoxically, the automobile has helped bring back
the horse; City people who
own horsescan load the animals intotrailers and get out
inthe country to ride horseback on bridle paths and
trails of their choice. Nonowners are within easy reach
of many riding stables. .
Whatever the stimulus,
the number of riders is growing remarkably--a fact that
seemstohoild true across the
country., Wherea locality
only had a handful of riding
clubs a few years back, now —
there are a dozenor so,
Horse trading is being revived as an art. Horse shows,
where both riders and horses
can demonstrate their skills,
are growing in number.
Some 8, 500 shows are members of the American Horse
Show Association. For every
member show, the association estimates there are at
least five non-member

events each year.
One reason for the increasing popularity of horseback
riding is that the entire family can participate on a yearround basis, In many cases,
parental interest is aroused
because a youngster becomes
“horse crazy."
Professor Howell strongly
recommends the association
of children with horses. “It's
a wonderful way of teaching
a child how to take care of
“himself,” he says. “For one
thing, youcan reach a child
so much easier if he likes to
do something. And children
certainly love to work with
the horse. They learn the
principles of care and feed+
ing of the horse, the main=
tenance of saddle and bridle,
From that they learn how to
take care of their own shoes
andclothing, the importance of being regular in
their habits and responsible
human beings. ”
«Over the years, the Davis
professor has noticed that
girls-and horses go especially _
welltogether. “I don't know
exactly why," he remarks,
“but I-have a theory that
growing girls sometimes tend
to become a bit lost in thisbusy world; they feel they're
not wanted in certain places
and groups; family frictions
develop. But when they get
ahorse, and learnto manage
it, they obtain a much needed boost to theirego. ‘I.can
do. something, I can ride. I
can handlea horse, ‘ they
say to themselves. They'll
really work with horses,
handling them and currying
them, It's a release--a way
toexpress themselves
through love of an animal."
Horses become as attached
to. individuals as dogs do,
says Professor Howell. They
get to know certain people,
will follow them around, and
will learn to recognize individual voices. A horse is
much like a person in its
sensitive response to surroundings, and the approach
you make to a horse often
determines whether it is going to like or dislike you.
Many people have an unreasonable fear of horses, For
example, ahorse running up
to a person on a field is just
trying to be friendly, not
trying tothreaten. He's running over to see what's going on. He's inquisitive, especially if he's a young horse.
Sometimes he'll run over to
‘ the fence to see an automobile or another breed of livestock. He observes things.
He reacts to people and
movements and surroundings.
