AG. COURSE OFFERS
SERVICE TO FARMERS

Agricultural News Notes and Elk
change List, the first publication of
the Cody Hi Agricultural course ap-
peared Thursday as a monthly pub
LEGATION with free circulation. 1t is
a typewriter bulletin done by the
commercial department of the
school. An important feature of
the publication is the exchange list
in which, without charge, anyone
may list his selling desires or pur-
chasing wants. The publication is
used primarily to establish direct
connection and communication be-
tween the school and the farm. An
article appears offering to test seed
corn for farmers without charge;
another on Farm Shop Work tells
of nineteen articles which have been
constructed by the Ag. boys and
are offered at about cost of mater
ials to the farmers who need them.
The projects taken by the boys in
the agricultural department are re-
corded as four boys for turkeys,
five for potatoes, two for corn, two
for poultry and one for farm rec
ords. Other articles covered are
milk testing, Matching eggs. Eat
More Bread and Aid Farmers" and
an interesting article contributed by
r. j. Allen, county agent on the
"Whys of Boys and Girls club work.

BEG YOUR PARDON

In speaking of the basket weaving
among rural communities last week
the Herald was in error in stating
that at Upper Sage the idea came
from the county demonstration, Miss
Marjorie Eells, when in fact this
fine work was started there by Miss
Mabel Schultz, teacher at the up
per Sage school. She has taught
her pupils the art as well as held
demonstrations with the mothers.
Miss Schultz is a very versatile
teacher and her abilities in many
lines have made a marked impress
upon the community life.

EVANS FOUND GUILTY
in M%ANSLAUGHTER CASE

Joe Evans of Lowell was convicted
of manslaughter before Judge C. o.
Brown in the district court at Basin
Wednesday, the case requiring but
a few hours to introduce the evil
dence. The jury was out less than
four hours. Evans and George
Moreland with others were engaged
in a drunken spree al the Overland
hotel at Lowell, with alcorub, ia
macia ginger and the like as the
liquid refreshment. The evidence
was very hazy and indefinite but the
jury held the man responsible for
the crime. He was given from s
to IL years in the penitentiary.
Judge Brown served in place of
Judge Metz who was called to Den
yer by the illness of his father.

FORMER CODY TEACHER
BOOSTS CODY COUNTRY

Mrs. F. A. Kinney, formerly Miss
Blanche Shelleday, a Cody teacher
in 1918, is now girl scout executive
at Iowa City and recently delivered
an interesting and instructive ad-
dress before the girls of Iowa City
on the Buffalo Bill country. She
told of Col. and Mrs. Cody, the
Carlow children, the days of the
pioneers, the Cody road to Vel
lowstone, Shoshone caver and Sho-
shone canyon, and gave them a
touch of western life by 100 pic
lures of the wild life of this sec
ton. The Iowa City Press gave
more than a half column of the
event.

PAID HUNTERS
KILL VARMINTS
GOOD WORK BY FEDERAL-STATE
MEN REPORTED

Cooperation on every hand, so far
as conditions permit, has enabled
the state trappers and hunters, in
conjunction with the federal men,
to maintain a very satisfactory and
steady reduction in the number of
predatory animals that range the
Wyoming farms and ranches, &C
cording to the annual report of the
Fish and Game department.
1t has been found that the state,
as well as the federal, %appropria-
tons, have fallen short, that not
enough money has been allowed the
trappers and hunters to completely
wipe out the menace of the preda-
tory animal. While short of money
the trappers and hunters have made
big inroads on the numbers and in
some places have nearly eradicated
the beasts.
Only one organization has beer
able to help the hunters financially,
the report states. That is the Roc
Springs Grazing association, which
donated $4,000 for the work. Indi-
vidual stockmen and sheepmen have
contributed carcasses to be used as
bait, and also have contributed feed
for the trappers' horses wherever
they could.
County commissioners at Johnson,
Park and Big Horn counties have
appropriated funds for the purchase
of strychnine from the government
laboratory at Denver This poison
r.s1l hA nhfnnad IN tho rnOnnRtiUa
counties and distributed among the
cattlemen and farmers by the coun-
ty agricultural agents for the pur-
pose of killing coyotes. The county
agent is taking over responsibility
of collecting results on the work
which will later be furnished the
inspector in charge of the work.
Poultry, as well as sheep and cattle
are reported falling prey to the
coyotes in the farming communities.
If the foregoing plan of distributing
poison works successfully in these
communities, it may be tried else
where.
The work of the hunters and
trappers has been carried on under
great difficulties. the report states,
and the results are very gratifying
in view of this fact.
More than 1000 animals were
destroyed in 1928, the report shows.
OF these, there were BOIL preda-
tory animals; 80 f~ur-bearing; 1874
porcupines and 239 unborn pups. 1t
is estimated that LOO coyotes were
poisoned, their carcasses not being
found. From the pelts of animals
the department realized $7,240.27.
The largest monthly total receipts
from the sale of pelts was in De-
cember, when s%1,506.S7 was turned
in. The other months, January and
April, also ran over the thousand
dollar mark.
Eradication of the predatory ami
mails also affords protection to the
wild game of the state, the report
states. In Wyoming at the end of
1923, there were 3,725 moose,
22,572 elk, 2,5S5 mountain sheep,
1885 antelope, 20,330 deer. 1,492
bear and "a buffalo in Wyoming,
according to the game census.
But for the activity of the preda-
tory animal hunters and trappers,
it is declared, this number OF game
animals would have been materially
lessened and the more predatory
animals there are destroyed, the
greater the number of game will be
in Wyoming.
