OURANT KILLS
FOUR COUGARS
Will Probably Lose Bounty
As He Didn't Properly
Skin Animals

NJ q
TO kill four cougars ana wound =
fifth after firing i've shots at inter-
walls OF about three seconds is the
phenomenal record made by Forest
Ranger John Durant several days ago
in the woods above Kooskia on the
Selway trail.
Supervisor c. NJ. Day, who Is in the
city from Kooslxia today, teals this
story OF Mr.. Durants adventure:
Johnnie is one of our most trusted
rangers. and Is at the present time
working on the selway trail in COM
pany with seven other men. One
morning. while on his way to work
from the camp, he came across deer
which had been recently killed by the
cougars.
"He discounted and laid in wait
but a few moments. when a mother
cougar and four smaller animals ap-
peared. returning to complete their
carnivorous feast. Durant is an ex-.
cellent marksman, and in less than a
minute after their appearances. four
of the animals lay dead in their tracks
while the fifth, the mother, escaped
with bullet hole In her shoulder,
probably to die in seclusion In another
part Of the forest
Mistake May Cost SEQ.
The bounty law, passed by the last
legislature awarding SIS to the per-
son killing q cougar, and demanding
that the left forearm Of the animal
be left in the hide while skinning. was
forgotten by Durant while skinning
the cougars. and he has forfeited the
money which he would otherwise have
received
| 1t is the intention Of Supervisor Day,
n company with Game Warden Har-
baugh, to present sworn statement
to the legislature to the effect that
the killing Of the cougars was boni
! flde, and in that manner secure for
Mr.. Durant the $50 rightfully due him.
The hides of the cougars were brought
to Kooslia.

WORLDS WHEAT AREA
is GROWING RAPIDLY.
Rate of Increase Exceeds the In
crease in Population-United
States Is an Exception.

LONDON, December THE Board of
Agriculture has issued a volume Of sta
1istics on wheat-growing. which shows
that in one at least of the great wleat-
exporting countries the population ap-
pears to be overtaking the wheat acre
age with considerable rapidity. 1t aD-.
pears that during the last quarter OF
a century the population of the United
states has increased thirty-four mill
lions, or IS per cent, while tho wheat
area has increased by less than ten
million acres, or % per cent.
On the other hand, in Canada the In
crease OF one and one-half millions of
population. or 80 per cent, has been
accompanied by an Increase of nearly
100000 acvres. or 15s per cent. in
wheat area. In Argentina an addition
of 40 per cent. to the population has
been accompanied by an extension OF
the wheat area OF from little more
than half million to 100000 acres.
Summarizing the figures for these
countries and adding Australia, the
gains in the wheat area and population
las been as follows within the last
twenty-five years:

Evidences Of activity among the
manufacturers are shown by increased
impOrtations of material used by them.
Crude rubber imported during the tls-
cal year 1907 amounted to T7,000,000I
pounds, against 81 "a millions In 1906
and SO IL millions In 1897; raw silk
imported, nea.ly 100000 pounds,
against 17,0OO,0OO In 1906 and less than
100000 in 1897: while many other
articles used in manufacturing SHOW
material gains over the imports OF last
year and large increases when con1s
pared with those OF decade earlier.
The popularity OF American merchan-
disc In foreign markets In various
parts OF the world Is illustrated, to
some extent at least, by the two pages
devoted to the foreign commerce OF the
principal countries Of the world and
the share OF that trade with the United
states. These statements show that
OF the imports OF Canada, 60.6 per cent.
were drawn from the United States.
and Of her exports. $751; per cent were
sent TO the United States In the latest
year for which statistics are available.
Mexico took $50 per cent OF her Inn
ports from the United States and sent
$685. per cent. OF her exports to this
country. The Central American States
take large share OF their Imports
from the United States; Honduras. SO

Costa Rica. 54.5 per cent; Guatemala,

The net result is that on the whole
the wheat area in thirteen European
Countries the United states. Argentina.
Canada and Australia has increased
more rapidly than the population. and
that whereas twenty-five years ago
there were 2s3 wheat eaters. there are
now 264 for the same extent of wheat
growing land. This result, however. is
mainly attributable to Russia. Canada
and Argentina, and In a slight degree
to Hungary and Roumania.

Great Increase In Trade With the


Great Increase In Trade With the
United States.
WASHINGTON. December I'm re-
viewing the trade OF Banes and Nipe.
Cuba, for the fiscal year 1907, Con-
.sular Agent George Bayliss, OF Antilla,
says in part:
The total exports to the United
includes returned American goods |
worth s10.465). an Increase of $2,913.-
PSI. or $50 per cent, ever the fiscal
year 1906. OF the total amount. Banes
exported articles valued at $2,047,S05
and Nipe s2.Ss7.4os worth. The In
crease in commerce was mainly due !
to the opening of Nipe as a port OF
entry August l. 1906.
There has been slight increase
over the previous fiscal year in the cx-
portation of bananas. notwithstanding
that the United Fruit Company, at
Banes, which was the largest exporter
of bananas from Cuba, mas ceased the
culture of this particular fruit. and
has planted, instead sugar cane, be-
cause of the latter being more pro-
fitable crop. The banana industry
soil and climate are particularly
adapted to the growing OF this fruit.
The cost of cultivating caballeria
of land (33 l-3 acres), as given by the
lCuban agricultural departmen for five
years Is $4,S94. The land should pro-
duce $1,000 punches of bananas, worth
on an average 81 cents per bunch. de-
