Coyotes on the Increase.

Despite the war that is being waged
on the fleet footed coyote, these ami
mails, farmers say, are increasing as
the years go by. and chicken roosts
and young pigs that stray away from
their mothers side suffer much in
consequence. Coyotes are plentiful in
the Hudson Bay and Eureka Flat
country, where farms are scattering
and they have plenty of room to multi
ply without being molested so much as
in the more thickly settled districts.
Coyote hunts are one of the pleasing
diversions of farmers boys on Sundays
and great excitement prevails on these
cross country runs, as they are often
attended by spills and sundry accidents
when the chase begins to get warm.
Many farmers have regular packs of
grey hounds especially trained to hunt
coyotes

spending reduction In expenses. Yester-
