Adv. 1 corns' """r' g2er X range-destroyin- many parts of the West The case of New Mexico Is typical ; so the remarks of Representative Hernandex of New Mexico concerning the situation are of Interest lie said In part: "One ' of the serious problems confronting those engaged In promoting increased production of food crops and meat animals was the tremendous damage to growing crops and to range nu grasses eausea vj pnun iug other rodents, and the toss of cattle, sheep, and poultry from wild animals. Investigations by the United States ibov that the annual losses la the United States from preda- - mnn W- -. "ew. ""VA exterminating rodents and predatory wild animals, and In every case the results are much more satisfactory and less expensive than under the bounty system. I have before me now a partial report made by the men In charge of this work In the southwestern part of the country through the council of defense, of the state af New Mexico. "In the spring of 1918 the governor of the state authorised the use of $25,- 000 from the fund known In our atate as the war fund, and under an agreement covering the plan for the work as executed. Under this agreement $10,000 of this amount Is conjunction with an equal amount by the department of agriculture, was set aside and applied in reducing losses in live stock due to predatory wild animals, an Increased force of huntera was placed In the field, trapping was resorted to by this experiment; the results have been very satisfactory. "State hunters have a total of 1,972 days, at a cost of $5,741.44. They have taken ftt2 coyotes, 124 bob cats, 14 gray wolves, 5 predatory bears. Including 8 grlzxlies. The average cost of animals In June was $887; In July, $8.53; August. $3.03. The government operations In the state during the same periods cost $9,225.70. snd resulted In the killing of 417 coyotes, 77 bob cats, 41 gray wolves, 13 mountain Hons, 2 bears. No reasonable estimate of damage Inflicted by predatory animals that has been advanced can show anything other than the return on this Investment of a very high rate of Interest The estimate generally accepted and It Is conservative. Indeed. In view of the present high value of live stock- -Is that each gray wolf destroys annually $1,000 worth of live stock; each mountain Hon. $500 each coyote and bob cat, $50 worth ;, predatory bears may be rated In the same. cl As with On this basis the saving repwolves. work Is resented In this of extimes nln thej atuounV nearly penditure. Thus'you will observe that the estimated saving to the people of $131J50Q. the nation, you might at a cost of about $20,000." tstjs clearly arraagedtthey afford a glimpse of the situation that prevails pretty much all over the far West and the whole nation Is Interested, too, as Mr. Fernandex said In dosing: We ere ail Interested In that Industry. We send our wool 20.000,000 or 25,000,000 poundsto the cities of Philadelphia and Boston, so that those merchants can have thst product which will Increase the employment of their people.

"used by the biological survey baa been perfected by years of investigation and experimenting and Is very successful. The "kill" of prairie dogs Is generally from 85 to 95 per cent by the use of poisoned oats. They followed rolled tip the work by using poisoned fumlgants, and later using by .barley such as bisulphide of carbon, with which. If carefully and thoroughly used, good start has been made. "The biological survey had arrangements la several states for hum If; i'i i;i hi mi hi in m Lift offCorns! range-destroyin- g - jirfll "Don't has a great deal --of idle curiosity T" "Curiosity, yes, - But never Idle." r ona states should, through their several legislatures, enact laws appropriating sufficient money to equal the amounts to be expended by the federal government Id the different states, and that such state appropriations should be expended under the direction of the biological survey, to be handled In conjunction with the funds appropriated by congress; therefore be It "Resolved by the New Mexican Cottle and Horse Growers' association. In convention assembled at Albuquerque, N. aL, March 25, 20 and 27, 1910. that we urge congress to appropriate the additional sum of $300,000 for Immediate use In the extermination of predag tory wild animals and rodents, and that we petition the various states to make appropriations at least equal to the amounts expended by the federal government: In the various states, said money, both federal and state, to be expended under the direction of the biological survey." This question of predatory wild animals and . rodents which . are also predatory animals In the true sense of the word, Inasmuch as they raid and I.I " Being Exact you think Bllgglns ' fl care how many animals were destroyed by predatory beasts, because meat was plentiful. But since meat has become all the way from $10 to $15, Instead of from $L50 to $20, we urge that the department give ur experts In with our own activities for the extermination of these pests. It Is true that predatory wild animals, like the mountain Hon and wolf, are expensive. The biological survey is emphatic In Its statement that the wage gray wolf kills $1,000 worth of live stock year, and a mountain Hon $500 worth. The coyote, which la the smaller prairie wolf, rivals his big cousin In destruction. The biological survey claims to have reduced the wolf population of New Mexico by 200 Individuals in three years. , Incidentally, naturalists and sportsmen will be Interested In the statement by the biological survey that In the Pecos mountain region bears have been very destructive. The survey uses these words : "During the recent grazing season bears killed approximately 125 head of valuable cattle In the Pecos region. Similar damage In the Black range and in the Mogollon mountain makes It evident that a total of at least 250 head of cattle aa well as a large number of sheep were killed by bears. These facts are worthy of consideration. In view of the general and concerted efforts now under way on the part of sportsmen to enact legislation that will prevent trapping of bears or hunting them with the aid of dogs." Naturalists and big game huntera hold that bears seldom kill big game or stock, and that when Individual bears get the stock-killinhabit It Is e an acquired taste. hunters holding these views have been active In promoting state legislation for the protection f grlssly and black bears; which otherwise are doomed to speedy extermination except In the national parks, which art wild life sanctuaries. It, warfare against- prairie dogs, and other rodents Is less chipmunks exciting,- but there Is much more money at stake. In New Mexico In four summer months work la . exterminating prairie dogs was conducted over 652,000 acres of In fested laoV8403 landowners assisting In the work. An average of over DO pei cent of the prairie dogs was killed. On the untreated .Jand the total losa of the crop, or at least a 50 per cent loss, often occurred as a reInfestation-- .
