WILD DOGS WORRY
CONVICTION FARMERS
Cross With Wolf Believed to Have
Started Pack of Six
BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
CONVICTION, Ind, Oct. IT,
Those who regret the passing Of
pioneer days should harken to the
woes Of Covington farmers. Wild
dogs are becoming a serious menace
in this district, they report, and
drives are being organized in an ef-
fort to eliminate them.
The wild dogs are believed to have
originated from a cross with a stray
wolf which invaded this county
twelve years ago, and are multiply
ing at an alarming rate, farmers
declare.
The dogs have been a nuisance
for years but recently their depre-
dations have caused loss of several
hundred dollars to the sheep of D.
G. Hendrix, James Welch and M.
M. Young. There are from six to a
dozen dogs in the pack, according
to reports, and they specialize on
the best sheep and hogs in the
vicinity, returning several times
after they have discovered the loca-
ton.
The pack makes its home in fox
burrows, and changes residence from
time to time. Although several ex-
perienced hunters have gone out
after the dogs none have been killed
so far.
