Show TOE PAGE FOUR TIMES-NEW- The ruthless destruction of th beaver, nature's ablest engineer. Is causing a huge economic loss to the Industry of farming and western America, according to dls coverles made by experts of the British Columbia game conservation board. Beaver dams, these experts have found, are Invaluable to agriculture because they conserve moisture which otherwise wouid run off quickly into rivers and be lost. Now that beaver dams all over the West are disappearing with the slaughter of their makers, agriculture in many places is feeling the effect In the form of drier soil and smaller crops. The trapping of beaver, which in the past has been regarded only as a problem of fur conservation, thus Is looming large as an economic problem as well. On this account the protection of beaver and their str&jge homes Is becoming an increasingly important mutter and game officials are studying It carefully. Investigations, already conducted, show that beaver dams in the past have exerted a widespread Influence upon the water supply of Canada. Damming up thousands of creeks and rivers, the busy little animals have created enormous reservoirs where water Is conserved through the dry summer months. This work, however, has gained them the enmity of farmers who blauie them for occasional floods, but actually they are one of the farmer's best friends, game experts declare. "The loss of fur bearers through the partial extinction of the beaver Is not as great as the injury to agriculture and stock raising brought about of water as through the rapid run-of- f compared with the retention of this water by beaver dams where the beaver remains plentiful," M. B. Jackson, chairman of the British Columbia game board, declared In announcing the latest discoveries concerning beaver habits. "This is a serious economic problem, and one to which perhaps sufficient consideration is not given when many requests are made for the destruction of beavers for their furs or because here and there a few acres are flooded by their dams." stock-raisin- Enjoy Saving Successful men enjoy saving because they know from their own and others experience that systematic saving points the way to success.
