SHIP TWO CARLOADS OF ELK INTO STATE FROM MONTANA The settlers over in the Chamberlain | *n Basin and Mallard Creek sections will be surprised to learn that the state has Just had BO elk shipped In from the National Dark and Jackson . Hole country for the purpose of "propagat ing and perpetuating the species'' and that corrals and feeding grounds have been prepared for their reception over in the Black Lake country. The few settlers In the sections mentioned have had some experience with elk during the p«st few years, as well as with the «täte officials and game warden's de partment, which has taught them a sad and expensive lesson along that line. Edward C. Harplson lives am Mallard Creek, some 26 miles south of Elk City, where he owns a ranch from which be has been trying to earn a living. The elk, which are abundant In that country form In herds and break down his form In, herds and break down his fences and overrun hi* crops, not In frequently destroying his season's la bor. They come In at certain season* and mingle with his domestic caltle and tramp out hi# meadows from which ho cuts hay for hl» own animals. In severe winters» he has fed and preserv ed the elk, and has thus helped to oanry out the efforts of the state which has had laws enacted preventing the killing of the same by hunters. Mr. Harplson was out to Orangeville Inst season and was a gtiest of the local Commercial club at the regular weekly luncheon while here. Mr. Harpl aon related some of his experience» to dairying and ''elk raising" which were very Interesting, came so numerous under his fostering be ly 1n When the elk be them, care a« to be burdensome and destruct ive of crops, Mr. Hmrplson applied to the state asking that, In view of the part he had taken tn preserving the elk in that section, that he be supplied by the state with sufficient wire to fence his place against the elk Inva sions, but his petition was Ignored. Yet the state can go to the trouble and expense of shipping elk in from another state, building corrals and employing persons to care for and feed but cannot see the wisdom cr economy j .
