One Hundred Thoroughbred Dogs Killed
 Because of Lack of Food.

 One hundred of the fincst-bred hounds in this country were killed re- gently at the Stokes & WhitehousC ranch on the Laramie plains because there was nothing for them to cat, and the man who was in charge of then. thought it more merciful to shoot them than to let them starve to death. He did not dare to turn them loose to range the country in their hungry con dition.

The owners sank five hun dred thousand dollars in breeding thor oughbred horses, and one day White house accidentally killed Stokes while they were hunting.
 The ranch was then practically aban- doned. It took a horse or steer each
