The Old Story

There's always something, and repeat, to make up weep and sigh; we're looking for big crops ot wheat, then comes the Hessian fly. Vast tracts of grain,' the papers claim, "are ruined by this pest, and farmers, weary ot the game, are moving further west. And thus the splendid prospect ends-all estimates have shrunk. v And nearly all such talk, my friends, is piffle, con and bunk. The farmers fear the price will slump, if prospects seem too bright, and so such fairy tales they pump into the jays who write. You'll see the stately wheat stacks rise at harvest time don't fear and none will miss what Hessian flies have spoiled for use this year. And scores of bogies that we hate, that wear and tear the mind, are Haunted by some selfish skate who has an ax to grind. When we behold a thing of fear, it's safe to bet, by jinks, that there's a speculator near who sits and pulls the strings. Walter Mason.

ENORMOUS LOSS 0F
 STOCK IN THE WEST

That at least one.twentieth of all the stock bred on the open range of the west dies before it reaches market age and that much of this loss can be stopped is shown by results reported from the national forests. This waste is said to add millions of dollars to the peoples meat bill and gives one more cause for the high cost of living. Winter storms and summer droughts strew the ranges with the bones of cattle and sheep; predatory animals take a heavy toll; poisonous plants sometimes kill half the animals in a herd almost over night. Cattle con- tract anthrax, blackleg and other diseases, get stuck in bog holes, slip off icy hillsides; and sheep pile up and die of suffocation Insects which madden and kill swell the total losses as do a null titude of other minor causes ol death and injury.
 If any of the animals to be grazed upon national forest seem to be suffering from disease, the stock is subjected to rigid in- spection by the federal bureau of animal industry before it is allowed to enter the forest. If an animal grazing on the forest develops suspicious systoms the permittee is requested to remove it. The carcases of animals dying from infectious or communicable dis eases must be buried or burned preferably the latter. To protect their stock against blackleg per mittees are encouraged to use vaccine furnished free by the de- partment of agriculture. Sheep suffering from scab or from lip and leg disease are barred from the forests until they have been treated m conformity with the re. quirements of the bureau of animal industry. This cooperation be. tween the two bureaus has made it possible to keep the forest ranges remarkably free from al forms of stock disease.
 The settlement and develop. ment of the west does not appear to have greatly reduced the mum. Der of animals which prey upor domestic live stock, and the loss from that source alone runs into i the millions of dollars each year Within the forests however, the number of domestic animals killed has been appreciably reduced by the officers of the service. Dur ing the past eight years fores officers have killed over thirty-fve thousand predatory animals con sisting of coyotes, wolves, bear mountain lion, wild cats lynx etc.
 The losses due to poisonou: plants have been in the aggregate
The Coconino sun., 1914-06-26

the most numerous and the most difficult to guard against. Stock men knew generally that certain flats or valleys or hillside slopes could not be used for grazing without heavy losses of stock, but there was much doubt as to what caused the loss. Gradually it was determined that the losses were due to various species of plants. Later, it was learned that in most instances these plants while extremely poisonous during certain periods of the year, were comparatively innoxious during the remainder of the graz ing season. The forest officers determined the various plant spacious which cause death or injury of live stock, the periods during which each species is dan gerous and the areas of forest land upon which the plants are suffi- ciently abundant to cause losses of stock. The next step was to devise ways and means of pre- venting the losses. Where defi- mite information is obtainable the outer limits of th6 poison areas are marked by warning placards which give the name of the pois- onous plant, the kind of stock to which it is injurious, and the period during which 1t is most harmful. With this warning, stockmen are enabled to so handle their stock>as to prevent the occupancy of the poison area during its danger period. In cases where the areas of poisonous plants are compara- lively small the permittees have been encouraged to fence them, material for fence construction being furnished free of charge by the forest service. The result of this work has been to reduce the number of animals lost through poisonous plants as compared to the numbers lost several years previously.
 Notwithstanding all precautions which may be taken against stock poisoning, losses from this source must be expected. During the past several years the bureau oI plant industry has been making a study of poisonous plants and oi antidotes. In the case of lark. 
 spur, for example, the bureau has determined methods of treatment which are reasonably successful
 under normal conditions. The only difficulty has been that the animals suffering from poison are generally out upon the open range and may not be observed by theil owner until it is too late to apply an antidote. The forest service has therefore arranged to meet this situation in an experimental way by equipping limited mum Der of rangers with hypodermit syringes and the necessary chemi
 calls. Armed with this equipmen forest officer can in a few
 moments administer a treatmen
 which may save $40 steer.
