Old-time trappers and hunters want coyotes and bob-cats and skunks let alone, it seems, while stockmen and sheepmen prefer calves and In the campaign to rid the West of the wolf and coyote, some relatively harmless fur-bearing animals are in- cidentally poisoned, the officials con- cede, but they hold that the num. ber has beon greatly exaggerated and {s well under the rate of re- production.

The cost of doing business has increased greatly for cattle and sheep raisers since the day when the range was free and the loss of a few hun- dred scrub calves in a season wasn't anything to worry about. So, if a |few skunks are sacrificed ‘'in the i process of saving their valuable stock from coyotes, they are inclined to view that less philosophically. Another thing the independent trapper doesn’'t like, the officials {opine, is the salvaging of the hides of the fur-bearing animals killed by the poison put out for the predatory beasts, for the revenue thus de- rived goes to the state. Sometimes, however, the trappers overcome that objection by running the poison lines before the survey's employe gets | Lord “ALL THE JUNEAU, ALASKA, TULESDAY, NEWS ALL THE TIVE” APRIL 5, 1927 ME ‘MBER OF B = — \SSOCIATED PRESS PRICE TEN CENTS UNS AT GCHICAGO POLLS the first shown This picture is Rescue workers thousands SHOULD RE NEW YORK, April 5.
