During the past summer, according
to the White Salmon Enterprise, bear
with a taste for mutton have given
sheep men on the Columbia national
forest a great deal of trouble. Hartz
Bros. using the Big Huckleberry range,
lost 25 head killed by bear. Mr.. Hartz
retaliated by killing five of the bear.
X. K. Jackson, using Bald Mountain
range, lost Is head at one time, when
the sheep, frightened by bear. were
piled up. Mr.. Jackson killed at least
one of the bear. Mr.. Hamilton, in the
Indian Heaven country, reports consid-
cradle trouble with bear, and some
losses. A band in the vicinity of Race
Track was raided one night by cougar
and several head were killed. Bear
troubled this band also throughout the
summer months.
Bear have been particularly numer-
Gus along the ridge separating the Wind
river drainage from the Little White
Salmon and north to Bird Mountain

FARMERS MAKE BIG SURVEY OF
 FREIGHT CARS

Chicago, Aug. 20.-The first survey tof freight cars ever taken by the sfarmers of a state has just been com lpIeted through. the Illinois Agrtcul- tural Association, Secretary D. O. announced to-day. On the basis of this census he said Illinois farmers did not believe there was a car shortage. The trouble with trans portaion he characterized as 'im- mobility and he declared the far mers meant to find out whose fault it was
 Secretary Thompson said the asso- citation undertook its census after re- ceiving reports from farmers over the state that they saw many cars stand ing idle on country tracks.
 Members of the association made daily records of the car initials and ,alI cars at 494 stations located in .46 different counties for seven consecu- :. tive days" the state farm bureau ex- ecutive said. "Of these 494 stations, 146 or 29.5 per cent. reported some of the same cars on tracks the last day of the count as were on the Backs the first day of the count.
 At all stations, 9294 cars were, list ed the first day and of these cars, iss1R8 out of 9,294 cars had not been lowed from the country point for seven consecutive days. This is just "a little over 10 per cent. of the cars l at such points.
 "No count was made in Chicago. In several other large yards the associa- ition enumerators were elected from the yards by railroad officials.
 Mine operators say they were forced to idleneSs many days each week leading to the strike of the miners which recently tied up the mines just when the farmers were needing coal for threshing. At this same time before the strike in Chris tian County, at Clarksdale and at Will leys, two trains of coal cars totaling 53 cars were reported empty at both first and last days of the count.
 eff we may take the total number of freight cars of the country on December 31, 1918, as a basis for computation and consider that the percentage of immobility of cars is as great in Chicago, Toledo, and. New York as in country points like Clarks-
 dale, Fidelity and Low Point, it is very moderate when we say. that the
 total number of new cars which the
 railroads say they need to meet the
 transportation requirements of the
 present moment, is not a patch to the
 total of immobile cars now. id1ing by the weeks and months in terminal yards and on side tracks at country
 points.
 '-This survey shows pretty clearly 4 to the farmers of Illinois the excuse of ear shortage is largely camou-
 flage, given to cover up some real
 deeper reason for the present trans
 portation inefficiency. And to search
 for that reason will be the next jot f of the farmers business organdza-
 tion."
