Gilruth, Deceased.
Newest Pest.

The newest pest in the west and
middle west is the dog. Not the prai-
rie dog, just the common dog. He is
responsible for the decline in the
sheep raising industry. In many
states in the section Of the country
once largely devoted to cattle and
sheep raising, there are more dogs
than there are sheep. 1t takes three
barb wires on top Of two feet Of woven
wire to make a fence that will
keep dogs away from sheep. Kansas
had 175,000 sheep and 199, 900 dogs
in 1910, according to the secretary of
the Kansas board of agriculture.
The usual answer farmers In the
west give to the question, why don't
you keep Sheep" Is I'VE can't keep
dogs from killing them"
