Coyotes About Gone.

(F. H. Hall in National Woolgrower)
We have fewer coyotes in Oregon
now than for many years. In fact in
some sections they have disappeared.
two things account for this first, the
presence of rabies and next three
dollar bounty. Rabies has existed
among our coyotes in Eastern Oregon
for about five years, but it only
spread rapidly during the past year.
Now we have it in every part of East
ern Oregon. 1t has killed thousands
of coyotes and is still killing what
few remain. Mad coyotes have caused
immense damage to stockmen, both
large and small. Thousands of cat
tie, horses, hogs and few sheep
have been bitten either by coyotes or
dogs that had been bitted by mad
coyotes. Naturally few people have
been bitten but these have been saved
by being treated with some kind of
vaccine. The Oregon legislature rec
ognized the danger of this plague and
raised the bounty on coyotes to $500
This puts hunters to work every
where and in addition to the old coy
otes that were killed, thousands OF
pups have been dug out of dens. 1t
looks now as if Oregon would not be
bothered with coyotes for some years
to come.

The receipts for timber sales on
the National Forests in Washington
and Oregon during the first quarter
of the present fiscal year, show a
marked increase. In fact, the re-
ceipts for this first quarter are more
than half what they were for the en-
tire previous fiscal year. This in
dicates very decided increase in
cutting operations on the Govern
ment Forests.
A forest ranger onthe 0 lympic Ma
tional Forest has reported Douglas
fir tree which is over 1850 years old,
Hitherto the Oldest Douglas fir Of
had 740 annual rings. Does any one
know of an older tree of this species? !?
Professor Fl. A. Winkenwerder of
the University of Washington Forest
School, who has charge of the work
being done to preserve the forestry
building at the A. Y. P. grounds in
Seattle, was in Portland recently and
took trip to the forestry building
at the Lewis & Clark grounds to learn
what Portland is doing to preserve
from decay the columns of this great
building. He seemed to think that it
will require great skill to preserve
both the Seattle and the Portland
forestry buildings, for 1t is a difficult
problem to combat the decay which
has strong foothold in the logs.

Teachers and Parents Confer at Cor
Wallis.

Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
Wallis, Oct. 1S.-Oregon parents and
educational authorities will hold
conference at Corvallis during the
last four days of this week, during
which time they will consider plans
of vivifying and improving the work
of the schools The conference will
be held under the auspices of the
state Congress of Mothers and Par
ent-Teachers Circle, and prominent
educators of Oregon and other posts
of the United States will be in at
tendance and deliver addresses. OF
the College speakers President w. j.
Kerr, Mrs. Kerr Mrs. Mary E. FaW-
cett, Mrs. E. B. Fits and Miss Lillian
Francis will take leading parts. Mrs.
Anna Strong will represent the Uni
ted States Bureau of Education, and
Superintendent j. A. Churchill will
present the views of the public edu-
cation department.
About four hundred official dele
gates are entitled to representation
and many of them will be present. In
addition to this number other delega-
tions for local circles not having OF
fetal connection with the state asso-
citation will attend. Hospitality will
be extended by the citizens of Cor
Wallis and the State College will be
host at some of the public functions.
While this association is young it
has already accomplished big work
by doing much to bridge the gap be-
tween the home and the school. 1t
Ihas found out much about the school
work that was profitable as well as
a good deal that needed improve
ment. But most valued Of all it's ac-
ltiyities has been it's willingness to
share in the responsibility for the
work and condition of the schools. It
| has learned where parents may assist
and relieve overworked teachers in
caring for school property, improv-
ling and beautifying it, and in meas
ures necessary to the health, morals
and learning of their children, and
then set about securing the assist
ance. More profitable forms of school
activities have also been assented to
and indeed initiated by local circles
School gardens, industrial clubs and
Standardization, have been objects OF
especial care. The conference is de-
signed to strengthen this work.
