Miners Lay Plans lo
Circumvent Beavers
GOLDKN. H. C. (AP). Ko
Ihick and industrious have beav
ers become in the Windercmcre
valley that they are seriously In
terfering with mining operations,
according to JL R. Perlain. of
Wllmer, who is developing claims
on Horse Thief creek,
Tho beavers, by damming the
creek, caused water lo back up
into the mine and it was home
lime before tho reason was dis
covered. After a search the mine
workers located a beaver dam
and blew it up. but the mine Im
mediately again filled with water.
Another Investigating party found
that the destroyed dam had bce.i
reconstructed and reinforced in
weak spots by the busy animals
within 1'4 hours. Furthermore,
some Go saplings, cut into usable
lengths, w ere found ready lor
further work on the dam.
Officials of the Itritisli Colum
bia game board, in an effort t .)
reome the difficulty, have sug
gested that the flume idea, evolv-
d by the biological survey of the
Pulled States, be tried out on the
creek. This la the cutting of a
flume through the beaver dam j.o
that the wutep will not rise above
certain point, on the theory
that Air, Heaver pays so much at
tention to his work that he never
gives a glance upward. Though
persist ent as well as Industrious,
there Is a limit lo a beaver's pa
tience and. finding that his dam
does not succeed in holding the
water back, he and his crew shift
to some other place und begin
home-iuaking ull over again.
Three years ago the. game board
closed the season for trapping
beaver south of the Canadian
clflc railway und the animals have
-multiplied so rapidly that th-y
nre becoming a nuisance.
