SOME STATISTICS.
Furnished by Secretary Whitehouse Of
the Protective Association.

A. w. Whitehouse, secretary Of INC
Laramie Plains Live Stock Protective
association, has furnished the following
statistics showing the results from large
bounties for the destruction of preda-
tory wild animals:
The state auditor has been kind
enough to furnish me with statistics
which. In the cas-" of gray wolves at
least, show very strongly that this as
sCciation is getting satisfactory value
for the money it has expended.
The available statistics apply to the
area of Albany county, and Will. the
association operates over a slightly
larger territory. still very few hides
have come from the out-of-county dis
t~ricts, and an addition of 10 per cent
% the county average figures will leave
the error or he safe side.
The state has made no distinction be-
tween grown wolves and cubs; the as
ISOLATION has; but these facts have been
taken into consideration.
The state has paid, in Albany county.
the following bounties for gray wolves
in five years: 1895. 50. at a bounty of
SO: 1896. &C. at SO; 1897, 16 at 81; 1898,
80, at 81; 1899, rs, at SO; average so;
adding 10 per cent, 80.
The association has paid in four
months bounties on 90 gray wolves at
500, and IS gray wolf cubs at s.; total,
95 gray wolves. Allowing the cub sea-
son to bring in a larger proportion than
any other. a very moderate estimate
would still bring us to 175 wolves of
all kinds for IL months.
The actual average of bounty on
wolves has been sS.4S per head, bu. as
months go on and cubs grow up this
will necessarily increase. The fact re-
mains hat high bounty has more than
trebled the number of wolves destroyed.
More than that, four months work has
accounted for 81 more wolves thar the
whole Of 1899, the highest previous
year. and for A more than the average
of ) years corrected to the larger boun-
Diary.
AS regards coyotes, the showing
though good, is not so remarkable. Two
facts must, however, be borne in mind.
In the first place the association bounty
of $1.50 is not materially greater than
that OF the stat, which mas paid from
rs cents to 81. In the second place, the
association has only operated from
March to June. and undoubtedly coy
otes are caught in greater numbers in
the winter.
The state has paid in Albany county
the following bounties on coyotes in
five years: 1895. 1855, at 81; 1896, ass,
at 81; 1897, 2S9, at 75c; 1898,
S99. at 75s; 1899, ia, at 81;
average, sos; adding 10 per cent, 60.
The association has paid in four
months bounties on 234 coyotes (56 at
Isl while the state bounty ran, and us
at $3.50. Allowing that the destruc-
ton Of coyotes will continue at the
same rate, the years hgureS VIII
amount to 702, a fair increase over the
corrected five years average of 610.
While private effort has lone much
and could do much more if the other
half of the stockmen could be brought
to appreciate the importance of it, these
nOXious animals will never be fully
subdued until the general government
takes the question in hand.

Speaking of the waste and lack of good judgment in many business con cerns. a writer in the New England Engineering M3gaZine says that the most costly thing about q factory is an incomplete organization. Yet the cost of establishing good one is often shrunk from like the plague. The req son is particularly obvious where the principals are not their own managers as in the case of almost all compan- ies. The cost of establishing a new and better system is seen at once in the pay roll; an additional clerk or higher salary makes itself clear to the most obtuse board. Expenses must be kept down. and so the proposal is vetoed. This may, nevertheless. be very far from clever business. The addition of ( 100 a year is Seen,. but what is not so clearly seen is the cost of mistakes due to all organization outS grown. These are smothered. The shops can easily keep their own coun- sel. The ultimate result of, Fsuch marked failures of co-ordinat ton shows, of course.s at the year. end in diminished profit in the Trade a-c'' But nobody knows why or wherefore
 In the course of year, several times the cost of a highly-paid staff may easily be muddled away in a large con cern, and nobody be a penny the wiser
 An incompetent foreman in one single may waste the firms resources to q perilous extent, and yet the manage ments may be only vaguely conscious that 'Soa and So is not as sharp as he might be- The money value of his quality. II ought rot to Ee.
