sheep MEN Want
BETTER DOG LAWS
Convention to Consider New
Legislation May Be
Held Here.

Sheep raising in West Virginia will
E46e encouraged in the years to come
through the activities OF the farmers
and the county agricultural agents in
ftheS state. They intend to get behind
concerted movement to have the
next legislature enact some sort Of a
law which will protect sheep owners
tfromilosses caused by dogs. The pres.
emit dog law which is never enforced
IS at it's best inadequate. Marion
county each year pays out more for
s1ost sheep than the tax on dogs brings
IN. This Is the case In almost all
icounties In the state, but relief from
such q condition Is not far beyond
the horizon.
Scavenger ours will be eliminated
IN all mining towns II the bill which
will be framed and got ready for tho
next legislature is to follow the word.
ing OF the Washington county, Penn.
!, sylyania, law which was enacted by
the pennsylvania legislature in 1915
, and q likeness OF which the sheep
drawn up. The Pennsylvania act pro.
ytdes for dogs to be licensed at sl.50
each for male and So each for female
and further provides that no person
not q citizen Of the United States be
permitted to own a dog. Thus the
n~on.descript, diseased cur OF the min.
ling town lose it's home. Sheep own.
ers claim that they lose moro sheep
from these mining village dogs than
from any other cause and they feel
that West Virginia Is more than well
Supplied with mine settlements, a law
should be made about that line.
In Marion county alone sheep rails.
ersi last year sustained the loss Of 500
sheep which died from the effects OF
having been torn by dogs. And other
counties in the state suffered like.
wise though in various proportions.
The Washington county law also pro.
ytdes that after a license year opens
o list shall be made and 30 days lat.
er published. Upon the publication
OF this notice all dogs which have not
been licensed are declared outlaws
and all 3constables, state and local or.
ticers have order to execute the deae1
sentence on them. Citizens arc in.
~structed to notify the authorities OF
any case where a constable fails to do
his duty.
Theilicense tag on a dog which may
' be killed is always necessary under
the Washington county law before
damages can be obtained. Should a
dog not tagged be killed the owner
has no recourse inasmuch as the act
provides tina. no dog is properly un.
less II be tagged. Many Marion coun.
" farmers have intimated that IL there
Is o law protecting them from the
rayages Of ,sheep.killing dogs they will
raise more sheep and others who have
long given up the industry because OF
the laxity Of the county officers In en-.
forcing the law admit that they will
buy Oxfords, Sh%ropshires and other
pure breeds of sheep and make Fair
mont and Marion county q centre OF
ssuch an industry.
The sheep raisers OF "a counties will
have q get.together meet within the
nextlmonth' of SO and secure the ser.
vices OF some lawyer who will be ask.
ed frame a dog law worth while and
itott Try to have 1t passed by the legis.
Nature.
