C.—Wild, predatory anfmals in the West have had a hard time this summer. Government ‘hunt- ers reporting to the bureau of biolog- ical survey tell of great slaughter of the animals and some incidents where it almost was the other way round. Uncle Sam’s bag of coyotes, wolves, mountain lons and lynxes cannot be counted yet, but enough data has come ; to hand to show that it will be a big one. 18 One of the most interesting narra- tives of this exciting business comes from E. F. Pope, an inspector of the service stationed in New Mexico. To give encouragement and assistance to the hunters located on ranches where thefr work is most needed, Mr. Pope has traveled two thousand miles in that state. 8tockmen Are Pleaged. “Almost everywhere,” he writes, “I found stockmeén ‘delighted with reduc- tions made in the wild animil plague in the last three years. They say that from an economic standpojnt it is onie of the most far reaching and sen- sible undertakings the government has yet attempted.

It often re- quires more time and effort to destroy this sort of coyote than it takes to get the younger ones, but the valne of the results obtained is very muchgreater.” Mr. Pope says settlers find it hard to build up ldarge hewls or flocks un- der the constant onslaughts of beasts of prey. The elimination of the pests is glving them encouragement and in- creasing their sheep and cattle. Game animals with the passing of their en- emies also are getting more numer- ous. “We have records,” says Mr. Pope, “of antelope being constantly seen in timbered sections from which walves, lions and cats have been erad- icated, the deer. no doubt, having be- come aware that their drend foes no longer are there to spring upon them from cover.
