old to this writer the other
dsy by Captain M.-Clees. of Ihe
Orrgon state poll.e force:
"The Willow Creek valley, over
In Harney rnuntyt i- a flue ex
ample of the value of the beaver
In reclaiming land and providing
water (or It during the dry sum
mers. As (ar down aa tha heaver
worked In Ihe old days, there was
(Ins lend and good gross In lb
Willow Creek valley,
"Hut HKLOW the workings o(
tha bearer, the land was rocky
snd dry snd unproductive."
ess
"Ovlc" ln "'t toun'r' '
years ago. ons man thought
ha could mske some money by
trspping beaver and selling their
pelts. Ho he put out his traps.
"He did est. b. a (ew bearer,
and he (ound a market (or their
pelts; but the destruction of Ihe
beaver practically ruined EIGHTY
ACRES of his own good grsss
land.
"Ilia beaver trapping wasn't a
very profitable enterprise."
see
JHK closing of the beaver sea
son In these four counties of
Oregon, which are Clatsop. Colum
bia. Mullnotnsn and Marlon, will
give rise lo a speclsl problem,
which Is this:
As complaints come In of dam
age done lo (rult trees by beaver,
something must be done about
litem. It Is the plan ot tha com
mission lo meet this problem In
this manner:
Heaver, In these communities
where damage Is alleged to have
been dune, will be trapped alive
In special net Imps, and the ani
mals will then bo moved Into
areas where they will be useful,
rather thnn destructive.
ess
JJBIIB Is where Southern Ore
gon comes In. If Southern
Oregon will let It be known that
It WANTS beaver on tha hoad
walors of lis streams, to ba put
to work building dnms and stor
ing up water (or use during the
dry summers, It will receive not
only protection o( the (ew beaver
that still remain, hut other ani
mals trnpped In thuso areas thnt
do not want them will be moved
In.
Thus, In time, It will be possi
ble (o bring back the conditions
that formerly existed,
see
JUST a word here as lo tha pres
ent game commission of Ore
gon. It Is mado up of sound,
thoughtful men who are broadly
and genuinely Interested In the
wild life problems o( this state,
and who see a vision ot groat
future dovolopment to ba brought
about by so building up our wild
life and our recreational re
sources as to bring here every
year thousands of wild life lovers
(rom all over Ihe country who
will not only add to our prosperi
ty by spending large sums ot
money whlls they are here, but
will be Influenced In Increasing
numhors to come to Oregon to
live.
That Is a vision In which wo
sro all Interested, and wo can
help to realise It by giving our
hearty support lo the gamo com
mission's policies.
