State Feed Used On Private Lands
Private land deer feeding near Madison drew criticism from Larry Whiffen chair of the state conservation committee who said two tons weekly are fed to 500 to 600 deer with public funds. Ernest F. Swift noted deer feeding statewide costs the state 80 000 annually for 15 000 to 25 000 deer and cautioned feed goes to tourist attractions where hunting may be barred. The tour ended with a 200 person meeting where many sportsmen disputed the committee findings and questioned browse conditions.
