Death Of Coyotes Mean
Increase Of Rabbits

Carson Appeal: AS the result of
the warfare that has been instituted
against coyotes. because of the fact
that in many parts of the State they
have become afflicted with rabies
and have done a lot of injury to live
stock, and their rapid defamation,
the rabbit pest has made itself ap-
parent and is doing a great deal of
damage in various agricultural Sec
tons. In some places. it is reported,
the rabbits have become so numer-
ous that it has proved impossible to
clear the fields of them and they
have made serious inroads on grow
ing crops.
In former years the coyotes have
held the Dummies in subsection and
prevented their too thrifty propaga-
ton, but with everyone turned a coy
ote hunter. both because the varmint
has contracted a dangerous malady
and is communicating stock. and there
being a bounty for his scalp. he has,
or what is left of him. been driven to
the wilds and now fails to frequent
the place where the rabbit abounds.
AS a result there is nothing to
head bunnie off and he is taking ad-
vantage of his season of immunity.
Naturally the farmer suffers and he
is now appealing to the authorities
for protection. How the rabbits are
to be disjosed of the Appeal knows
net, as it is out of its line of business,
but the matter should be taken up
by some one in authority and steps
instituted to put a stop to the dam
age rabbits are doing. They are
rapidly increasing in number and
their harmful work grows apace.
