Millions Saved from Wild Beasts
Taking the estimates of farmers
and stockmen themselves, there has
been saved to them during the past
year not less than $5,000,000 from
the hunting of predatory wild ani
mals by the United States depart
ment of Agriculture, In cooperation
with the States. The work is done
by the Bureau of Biological Surrey
and such agencies as are designated
by the various States. During the
past fiscal year about 32,000 ild
animals were killed under the direc
tion of the Biological Survey by a
force of between 400 and 600 skilled
hunters. Indications are that still
greater numbers were killed by pois
oning, though no actual count could
be made of animals thus destroyed.
Extensive poisoning operations
were conducted in the great sheep
growing sections ot Arizona, Color,
ado, Nevada, New Mexico, Utah, and
Wyoming. This was followed by a
marked decrease in the number of
coyotes, particularly with a corres
ponding decrease in the losses of
sheep, cattle, pigs, colts, and poul
try. Stockmen say that on many
important ranges not lambing
grounds the former heavy annual
losses have, become negligible or
have been entirely eliminated. As
an illustration, there is an area
about 75 miles in diameter in test
era Colorado where sheep owners
formerly reported an average loss of
about 25 sheep a day throughout
the season. Poisoning operations
have been conducted through two
successive seasons. Destruction ot
predatory animals has been so thor
ough that sheep now range freely,
sometimes unattended for several
days in succession, without loss.
Losses throughout the area are nominal.

Some Other Materials Last Better
But Are Too Source to Be of
Economic Importance.
Oregon Agricultural College, COR
VALLIS, Dec, 24. Western red ce
dar posts dipped in cresoto are the
best for use on Oregon farms, asserts ,
II. S, Newins, technologist of the for
estry department.
"Western yew, juniper, lignam vi- I
tae, and several other woods, he says, ;
"will outlast cednr as fence posts
but owing to their scarcity are not 1
of economic importance. Woods
having resin well distributed
throughout the cell structure, and
woods of high specific gravity are
most durable when in contact with
the ground."
Treatment of fence posts with cres- j
sote ns a preservative is recommend,
ed, as records show that the life of !
the post may be more than doubled
by such treatment. Treatment is not
expensive and may be performed at
such time as will not Interfere with
the other farm work. j
Round posts that have been well
saturated with preservative, points
out Professor Newins, aro a little
better than either sawed or split
posts as lliey present loss surface 1
