War on Predatory Animals

From the report of the New Mex
leo Cattle and Horse Growers AS
ISOLATION it appears that this state
association of cattlemen is doing its
share towards eliminating the de-
structivc gray wolf and mountain
lion. This report shows that during
the past Is months the association
paid bounty on So grown wolves or
lobos, q wolf puppies, 81 grown
mountain lions and S lion kittens.
These animals came mostly from
the southwestern part of the state,
from the counties of Grant, Luna,
Sierra and Socorro.
The association paid for the elimi-
nation of these animals $5765 which,
taking Mr.. Ligon's Biological Survey
statement, would have cost the cat
tlemen of this particular section,
close to 100000. The COST for this
saving is less than a per sent of the
amount involved. In other words,
through an expenditure of less than
$4,000 the New Mexico Cattle and
Horse Growers association has saved
the cattlemen of the counties men,
toned. $lW,OD-if Mr.. Ligon's fig
ures can be relied upon. and Mr..
Lyon states that his estimates are
indeed very conservative.

A thorough discussion of the Ct.
fe%ctiveness of the present bounty
law occupied the attention of tho
executive board of the New Mexico
Cattle and Horse Growers Associa-
ton 1T its recent session. Plans for
a better bounty-law were proposed
Meeting with the board were ]. S
Lyon and Mr., Musgrave of the bio
logical survey, and A. E. James, d.
rector of the New Mexico Taxpay-
erS' association.
For some time the chiefs of the
cattlcmen's association have held
that the present bounty law fails of
its purpose in that it is not eliminat-
ing the predatory animals from the
stock ranges and that the cost to the
state is out Of proportion to the ben
eft derived. Mr.. James is interested
in a different method OF Graduating
the wild animals that will cost the
state less and at the same time bring
real relief to the sheep and cattle
men of the state. Mr.. Lyon and Mr..
Musgrave proposed cooperation be-
tween the federal and state authori-
ties. each bearing its SHARE Of the
expense Of a campaign that will real
" remove predatory. animals from
the ranges of New Mexico forever.

ties, who have but one argument
Hubbell fed sheep for political pur-
poses.
Would it not be a good thing il
every candidate for office had TO do
some useful thing to show his fit
ness?
The truth is that Mr.. Hubbell has
long been interested in the feeding of
livestock righe here in the state and
has ior some years insisted that the
farmers and stock ~raisers of New
Mexico were annually letting mill
ions OF dollars slip through their
fingers because they failed to take
full advantage OF the natural re-
OF the country. Long be-
fore the United States Senatorial
nomination was discussed in New
Mxico NJ. Hubbeil had announced
his willingness to undertake the
feeding of a large number of sheep

for the purpose of demonstrating the

same time he promised to make pub
lie, for the benefit of all concerned,
the exact results of his venture.
He carried on such experiments,
ION a large scale, as conclusively
proved that New Mexico farmers
and stockbreedcrs could easily build
up a profitable business handling
almost a hundred million dollars a
year.
The stock breeder would be great
ly benefited, as he would have his
market here at home, and not be at
the mercy OF outside buyers.
The farmers, big and little, would
profit even more, because they would
have here at home a sure and profit
able market for every wound Of feed
they could raise, and make addition

the New Mexico breeders produced
Experts say that Mr.. Hubbell dem
onstrated the fact that New Mexico
farmers could. with little par
tons. add about fourteen million q
dollars to their incomes by feeding
the sheep now annually produced in
the state. Would ii not be a good
thing if every candidate for office
had to make himself as useful to all
the people of the state as Mr.. Hub
bell made himself when he carried
through those feeding experiments?
