Rod and Gun l for the hunters notes early road-side meat draws and a waning elk and moose presence as sun and light snow hindered access. Warmer days reduced activity until a renewal of winter conditions in the last week improved hunting, with many licenses filled and a fairly good harvest despite unusual weather.
The 1960 Duckology report from Ducks Unlimited describes gradual southward migration with ducks in good supply but no major concentrations. Dry weather reduced moisture on prairies, threatening future broods without spring runoff and heavy snowfall. Turkeys and geese shoots persist, with varied contest formats. A Dear Santa letter asks for hunting gear and fishing items, while a Manitoba hunting incident ends with fines, licence suspensions, and gun impoundment.
The piece recalls primitive plowing with beasts, noting muscles failed before animals. It contrasts with modern power, saying Canadians rely on petroleum horsepower, boosting efficiency and living standards. It adds oil reliability and prices and cites Imperial’s tractor gasoline price trend over a decade.
