Oregon Stockgrowers Plan
War on Wolves and Coyotes.
The offering of bounties for the scalps
of predatory animals has so often failed
to accomplish the good hoped for that
the bounty plan has lost favor iu many
localities. The Wool Growers’ Associa
tion of Oregon has just gone on record at
its recent meeting at Tlfe Dulles as favor
ing the abandonment of the bounty ays
tem and substituting the system of kill
ing the animals by private effort and
employment of professional hunters.
The Assciation will take up the work,
and ask assistance from the National
Association.
J. N. Burges, President of the Associa
tion, estmates that Oregon sheep owners
lost the last year $250,000 by predatory
animals, and the loss of other farm stock,
including poultry, would increase the
loss too half a million dollars.
The United States Forest Service has
demonstrated efficent work can be done
by trained hunters who are sent to the
ranges to make a special business of kill
ing wolves, and such other denizens of
the forest as prey on flocks of sheep. A
number of such hunters are now at work,
and they are ridding some of the ranges
very fast of the animals which do so
much damage each year. Wolves are
tracked to their dens, the pick and shovel
as well as the rifle are brought into play
A campaign of that kind strikes at the
evil.
So vast however, is the western count
try that the work of a few hunters can
give only local relief ; but if State Stock
Growers’ Association go at in earnest as
Oregon organizations proposes, the war
will soon grow decidedly interesting for
the four-footed skulkers that have grown
fat on mutton, pork, veal, and poultry.
Of Interest to Ranchmen.
Rep. Boynge was sworn in on Dec. 3
and the first act he did was to introduce

duced other measures among which were
acts to permit the sale of grazing lands
up to four sections at sl. an acre; to rent
additional horn 3-steads of 100 acres to
locators who put down wells flowing suf
ficient water to irrigate ten acres; to
permit entries of home-steads of 320 in- |
stead of 100 acres, as at present, and for [
an additional judge for the Ninth judi ;
cal district.
