Of Calves,

Eight wolf hounds were received last
Saturday from Missouri by James Swope
and Prather Bros, cattlemen in the
eastern part of Otero county. They
were large, heavy set animals and
powerful runners and good fighters.
They cost $40 a pair. and are trained
and guaranteed by their raiser. These
dogs were brought out for the express
purpose of running down the big lobos or
wolves that are so destructive to young
calves and even yearlings and the cow
men are anticipating some great sport.
The methods is to catch up fresh wolf
trail in the valley and take the pack to
it, turn them loose and the we'll trained
dogs will mover let up until they are on
the game No dog is equal for an attack
on a wolf. but if there is q pack they can
bring it to bay and protect themselves
until the riders come up when the beast
is shot.
The cattlemen have been made des-
perate by the large number of their
calves that have been destroyed and it
is to be hoped that they can put All end
to the biggest part of the loss

of a good grade of paraffine or illumi-
mating oil. 1t was the first intention to
