porter the other day. Il noticed that
beef, mutton and pork Is very scarce
on the reservation, but rabbits are
plentiful.
Everybody, therefore. depends on
rabbits for their fresh meat. This fact
has led TO the general slaughter Of
dogs on the reservation.
This assertion may sound odd but il
Is a fact as the dogs are causing
wave OF nervous prostration and II Is
to save the people from becoming nerv-
GUS wrecks that the dogs are killed
