IN CONTROL PREDATORY ANIMALS IDE Btnr. or More than $118,000 was paid out for bounties on predatory animals in 1021 in the state of Oregon, and the eoyotes are still menacing the sheep producers, both by direct attack snd through outbreaks of rabies.

Resolutions were passed at the meeting indorsing methods of control and plans of organization employed and advocated by the biological survey.
