In Game Between Richmond
And Marion, Martin Had
Seventy-three Stops.
MARION WAS DEFEATED.
THE SWIFT BUSHES OF THE
QUIGLEY BROTHERS CARRIED
AWAY EVERYTHING BEFORE
THEM.

Richmond easily de feated the Mar
ing by score of 8 to .. At the close
Of the first period the score stood |
to | but in the second period the
Quigley brothers hit their stride and
from that time on did nothing but
pound in goals and throw chalk dust
into the eyes of the visitors. Never
has any prettier team work been seen
on a local floor than the Quigleys dis
played last night. Back of them was
a perfect defense.
Parry put up an excellent game at
center and made his usual goal on a
line drive. W. Martin at goal for the
visitors played Il remarkable game
But for his splendid defense Richmond
would have buried Marion under
landslide of goals. Martin had IS
stops to his credit. The offensive
work OF the visitors was weak and
after the first period they were never
in the game. Lincups and summary:

A SPLENDID EXHIBITION.

The international Live Stock Show,
held at Chicago last month had an
average attendance of about 10000
daily. A total of 3,449 animals, valued
at $6,95O,000 were on exhibition, in
Guiding 1903 cattle, 1,146 sheep, 500
horses and 375 swine. The exhibits
came from twenty states, viz: Illinois,
Colorado, Iowa. Michigan, Nebraska,
South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin,
Kansas, Missouri, Ohio, Texas, Wyom-
ing, Indiana, Kentucky, Pennsylvania,
Virginia and West Virginia; also
Canada, England and Germany.
The great display of cattle was re-
markable for high quality. Heretofore
the championship has been won five
times by the Angus breed, and twice
by the Herefords; this year it was
awarded to a Canadian grade short
horn, Is months old, that weighed
1880 pounds, and was sold at auc-
ton for "a cents per pound. The
champion carload were two year old
Angus steers from Iowa and sold for
8 cents a pound. In carcass tests the
Angus breed won seven of the ten
prizes.
The champion carload of swine were
Poland Chinas.
One of the interesting features OF
this meeting was the judging contest
between students of Agricultural Col
leges, in which those from Washing
ton State College did creditably. Eight

WAR ON WOLVES AND COYOTES.

The Offering of bountieS for the
scalps of predatory animals has so
often failed to accomplish the good
hoped for that the bounty plan has lost
favor in many localities. The Wool
Growers Association of Oregon, has
Just gone on record at its recent meet
ing at The Dalles as favoring the
abandonment of the bounty system
and substituting the system OF killing
the animals by private effort and en-
ployment of professional hunters. The
Association will take up the work,
and ask assistance from the National
Association.
]. n. Burgess, president of the Asso-
citation, estimates that Oregon sheep
owners lost the past year $25O,000 by
predatory animals, and that the loss
of other farm stock, including poultry,
would increase the loss to half a mill
ion dollars.
The United States Forest Service
has demonstrated that efficient Work
can be done by trained hunters who
are sent to the ranges to make spec'-
al business of killing wolves, and such
other denizens of the forests as prey
on fiocks of sheep. A number OF such
hunters are now at work, and they are
Kidding some of the ranges very rap
idly of the animals which do so much
damage each year. Wolves are tracked
to their dens, the pick and shovel as
we'll as the rifle are brought into play,
and the young are found and de-
stroyed. A campaign of that kind
strikes at the root of the evil.
So vast, however, is the western
country that the work of few hunt
ers can give only local relief; but ii
State Stock Growers Associations go
at it in earnest as Oregon organiza-
lions propose, the war will soon grow
decidedly interesting for the four
footed skulkers that have grown fat
on mutton, pork, veal, and poultry.
