SOME EVEN THRIVE FROM
INDUSTRY OF SQUIRRELS

Pierre, S. d., Dec. ~1a.--State Game
Warden Hedrick has filed with the gov
ernor the fourth annual report Of that
department, ending with June 80, 1913,
he reports receipts OF $47.759.31, of
which $16,034.31 was license money.
The disbursements showed warrants
issued to the extent of s4,96S.13, and
cash on hand June 80, 1918, OF 342, 773.1S.
In the report the game warden informs
the governor that the decrease In deer
in this state is very alarming n att
tributes the condition to d~epre6ations
Of wolves on the young stock. He.
urges that more land be devoted by
the state to large game, such as deer.
He recommends some particular sec
tons in the Black Hills which will
never be used for other purposes. 1t
iB announced that elk are entirely ex-
tinct in this state. ard there are rec
concentrations that some be imported.
The squirrels are not decreasing, but
the game warden recommends that
they be given more protection than
they have at present, because they
furnish a living to many persons in
the Black Hills, who sell the pine ones
which the squirrels have gathered and
stored up. These one are supplied
to the government at good prices, and
the industry of the squarrels makes
an easy method of securing them

NO HOPE FOR OTHER
MEMBERS OF FAMILY
THAT ATE RAW PORK
Three More Deaths to Follow II
Verdict of Doctors-Three
Have So Far Died.

Sioux Falls. 8. D., Dec. 1s.-ThaS
there practically is no hope for the
recovery Of the remaining members Of
the John Wet family, living % miles
southwest OF Sioux Falls, who are af-
eected with trichinosis, ~ the report
brought to Sioux Falls by physicians
who have just returned from the scene
Of h terrible affliction. The trichinos-
IL resulted from members OF the FAM
lily eating sausage which had not been
cooked.
Thus far Wet, the head OF the family,
and two daughters, Grace and Rose,
have died. Two other daughters,
Etlda, aged 13, and her 8~-year-old sis
ter, and Peter Wet, aged IS, are the
remaining members OF the family who
r declared to be doomed.
While neighbors believe that the son,
Peter, is showing Improvement, the
physicians expect he will be the first
of the remaining three succumb.
The boy has made q hard fight for
life from the beginning and only his
strength of will kept him from his bed
until about two weeks ago, when his
energy became exhausted.
The fact that the mother Is an in-
valid, and that John Wet, he oldest
son, was away from home, and the
youngest child, aged two months, was
too young to partake OF the sausage
saved the Wet family from being am
initiated.
