Wildlife management benefits everyone from the rancher to the little old lady who wants to feed birds on her back porch,” he explained. “If we outlaw trapping or take cougars out of the management system, how does it effect other species?” Farr continued. He cited the plight of wool growers in Colorado as an example: Poison for predators has been outlawed because it effects the eagle population. It ‘is against the Colorado State Constitution to trap cougars, even on private land. How, then, does the rancher protect his sheep?

In 1992 the Salt Lake Tribune published an article bashing Living Trusts. The article may infuriate the 30 million strong American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) and many Utah seniors. AARP has advocated Living Trusts for years because of “unreasonable” probate costs still being charged to seniors’ estates’ From the St.. George Spectrum, “The AARP, in it’s study of 900 Probate cases in California, Delaware and Wisconsin, found that attorney fees could cost two billion or more each year nationally.” Sometimes attorneys charge by the hour. When I graduated from Law School in 1960, fees were $30.00 per hour. In the 1990's, this law firm charges $300 per hour, a 100% increase over the past 30 years! Okay, so what will it cost per hour in’ 2020, in another 30 years, with another 100% increase? $3000.00 per hour? Unbelievable!! A St.. George senior whose widowed mother had just died lamented to me about the “reasonable” attorney fee quoted on the $100,000.00 estate probate. An attorney in Cedar City quoted $8,000, another in St.. George $5,000 and another in St.. George $3,000. A Will is a probate instrument! Where there’s a will, there’s a probate! Get it? A Will is a four letter word. Further, as to the probate delay, the former President of the Washington Bar Association John Palmer, stated in an article printed in the St.. George _ Spectrum, “ A probate takes at least six months to two years or more.” My first cousin from Manti was killed in a farm accident and his probate took 20 years!
