Cougar Hunted
After Repulse By
Pair Of Horses
ALBANY, Ore., UP) A cou
gar, apparently the loser in a fight
with the dam and sire of a palo
mino colt in the Parrish gap area
of Marion county, was hunted to
day. Mrs. Dale Harnlsch, owner of
the horses, said she found the colt
and its mother badly slashed and
bleeding profusely when she went
to inspect a herd she pastures in
the well populated area.
A stallion, sire of the colt, was
seriously scratched.
Harnisch and Dale Priest, assis
tant Linn county agent, tried to
pick up the trail with a hound
but were unsuccessful. They said
however, they found evidence of a
cougar, and thought it was' still
in the area. There were indications
it was an old one or had been in
jured, they said.
Cougars had been reported seen
in the area previously. The fact
that they seldom leave without kill
ing a victim led to the theory that
the dam and sire had protected
the colt.
The colt and mother were treated
by a veterinarian.

Only one match, carelessly tossed away, may result in the
destruction of thousands of acres of growing trees.
It's so easy to prevent this needless loss, for which all of us
pay. Simply break your match before you throw it away.
Then you know it's out. Never toss away a burning ciga
rette. Never leave a camp fire without knowing not a spark
remains.
Acts of carelessness cause the great bulk of our annual $40,000,000 loss
from forest fires which also impair the capacity of forest lands for in
growth. The cooperation of all is needed to defeat this enemy of our
forests. KEEP OREGON GREEN!
