Neat door to water office Harry 8. Clapp, KI«Nfriclnn l'hone .3.10-It Wild dogs are presenting a serious problem In Australia, according to a Central News dispatch In the London Westminster Gazette. The correspond ent at Broken Hill. New South Wales, says that unless Immediate measures to protect the flocks of sheep are taken, they will have to be replaced by cattle In the districts north of Broken lllll. The seriousness of the situation I« described by John Dunne. president at the West Darling Pastoralists' associa tion. who states that, although there hns ticen a good season, pastoralists In the Darling Illver district ami north as far as the Queensland border are faced with one of the greatest problems within the memory of settlers In that pnrt of the country. “Reports are coming to hand from all parts of the district.” he added, "of the enormous losses Incurred owing to the prevalence of wild dogs. Already country which before the drought was admirable sheep country. Is now stocked with cattle, and likely to con- Untie to be stocked unless the dog nuisance Is successfully dealt with." Last year the western vermin board was formed nt Wllcanla nnd the gov ernment then In power granted $2ó0.- IMW» for fencing In the western division against wild dogs, but owing to a change of government since that time none of the money hns been forthcom ing and the wild dogs have now come right Into the western division nnd are creating havoc among the flocks.

Sometime« the yawl gets to Old Providence once In three weeks. Sometimes it doesn't.
