| food, and those that are killed fO1
their pelts are killed in winter when
the furs possess the greatest gloss
and strength, and bring the most
money in the market. SHINING
coyotes promiscuously all the year
for their pelts is as wasteful as kill
ing steers for beef when they are
poor and skinny. Coyotes kept in a
ten by twelve pen are unhappy and
look haggard and their fur is of little
value, but coyotes that live in the
woods or the brush patch or a big
pasture and have plenty of food, pro-
duce high class pelts and can be
harvested" when they are at their
best.
No Capital is Necessary
What has been said of coyotes can
be said in modified form concerning
a number of other fur-bearing ami
mails that can be raised in liberal
captivity-and there are many kinds.
Skunks can be deodorized, and they
breed enormously and are valuable.
There is a way to turn muskrat
swamps into producers of great in
comes, and the man who has been
trying to destroy them along his
ditch and canal banks is learning
that there is more profit in harvest
ing" them than in raising cattle or
sheep. An attractive thing about 1t
is that it costs him nothing to
stock up" on muskrats-all he has
to do is to study up on how to get
the most out Ct the mand when and
how to go about it. Every state has
in some localities its wilderness of
muskrats," and the price Of pelts has
risen from 10 cents to $500
apiece. Retaining muskrats is not
a bad business financially, and
skunks are, as profitable as rats, lay
ing aside the old joke.
Coyote Profits VS.. Cattle
The west always has it's dry farm
ers who make money in good years
and go broke in dry ones. The dry
farmer who has used woven wire to
fence the rabbits out, and bought
himself poor getting strychnine to
kill the squirrels that swarm over
his fields, is being shown the light.
He can reverse the methods, and 60
TO using the fencing to keep coyotes
in, let the squirrels alone and fur
nish them what grain he can to keep |
hem multiplying and swarming, and
make some trap-gates at angles in
his fence, and bait the jack rabbits
n so the coyotes can have rabbit
aces of their own and choice NOR
,els and balanced rations. Coyotes
ire very happy when they can chase
squirrels and rabbits in large spaces.
They soon forget about the woven
wire fence If they are successful III

tired of it. This indicates that he
has been made the victim of gossip,
for there has never been any other
such election and bond issue.
Mr.. Jenkins criticism of the rest
of the county being robbed of its
money to build paving at the en-
frances of the county seat falls flat
in the face of the fact that the paw
ing referred to is to be paid for out
of the money already apportioned to
the second district, and none of it is
taken from either the first or third
district.
The apportioning of bond money
| in localities according to assessed
valuation gives Blackfoot a. large
share in the money belonging to the
second district, for paving the en-
frances to the town. The public de-
manded that plan of road building,
also to create good roads where the
traffic is heavy.
Editor Jenkins blames the other
commissioners because roads in the
Aberdeen voting precinct do not re-
ceive more of the bond money, and
quotes Colonel Fugate as being OBJ
liged to cut the Aberdeen distric.
short in order to get more work done
on the state highway leading from
the south county line to the upper
end of their commissioners district
at Riverside. He refers to the
pledge made by the commissioners
before the bond election, that the
money should be expended in the
respective voting districts in proper
tion to the assessed valuation of the
precincts as nearly as practical. If
Colonel Fugate spent less in Aber-
deem and more in Springfield and
Sterling territory in order to make
the state highway complete, the Abb
erdeen editor should not blame the
rest of the county for that. Men in
other localities praise Colonel Fu-
gate for his fairness and wisdom in
road building, and it is too bad that
he should be misunderstood and IL
beled by his home people.
There is just one point we are in
doubt about and we stated it in our
issue of June 7. Colonel Fugate,
speaking for the people of his dis
trict, said he thought that districts
1 and ought to put up the money
for Bingham county's share of the
Fort Hall pavement, and release his
district from paying any of it. He
says they do not travel that road, but
go the other way. His district ex-
tends from Riverside to the south
end of the county, on the west side
of Snake river, and If the rest of
the county wants to pay their own
share and the share Of those living
below Riverside, just because Colo
Fugate says they do not travel the
Fort Hall road, then the Colonel
should be allowed to go on and ex-
pend the rest of the $2S,6OO that
has already been set aside for pave
ment at Fort Hall. If not, then the
third district must pay back the
F16,S59.90 they have overdrawn.

farming in manufacturing country.
They are wishing that somebody
had told them to leave the timber
alone before the damage was done.
History keeps repeating itself in diff
ferent forms, and now we find our
selves destroying every possible fox,
coyote, muskrat, skunk and other
animal whose pelt is worth some
thing besides the trouble of SHINING
and soon the species viii become eX-
tinct as the buffalo.
Applying the lesson as it applies
to the re-foresting, people have
awakened to the necessity of re-fox-
ing, re-coyoting, demonstrating, re-
skunking, re-elking and re-deering
the western farms and groves, its
valleys, canyons, cliffs and bluffs.
The animal that has had to skulk
and live in seclusion, always running
and fighting for life, being called
from earth and from the care of its
newborn young, leaving them to
starve or to be knocked in the head
Ivy the settler who CHANGED to find
them-this animal in whatever
species he exists, has about stopped
production of furs and skins, and
must be reclaimed or the human
species will go without furs and
gloves. In the name of human COM
fort, then, the re-foXing has begun
and must be pushed alike by the rich
and poor, and especially by the peo-
pie of the western states where the
fox, the coyote and their cohorts are
making their last stand before going
out of existence.

For the Rich and Poor

The fox is necessarily the rich
mans animal because it requires
more or less capita to get start in
foxes and to develop a herd" But
the muskrat and the coyote are pre-
eminently the property of the poor,
even more so than certain brand
of horseless carriage may be the
property of anyone who is willing to
crank it, Where is the poor family
out west whose children cannot 90
out and capture some baby coyotes
in May or June, and by little pre-
sistence, fence in copse, a grove
or some wild land where herd of
coyotes can be happy and prosperous
if only some squirrels and jack rab-
bits be turned their way or that old
horse be killed and cured and fed to
them or the COW that bloated on
alfalfa be dressed and preserved for
them.
Destroying Our Own Wealth
In vast expanse of western states,
county farm bureaus assemble the
whole available population for rabbit
drives for the one purpose of de-
stroying the rabbits, and counties
vie with each other in making the
greatest killing, leaving the car
cases and furs untouched to rot
