will reduce from So to S. the cost
Of catching and Transporting each
beaver.
Original plans for employing"
the beavers were devised several
years ago. according to report
submitted by the division Of grazing
at Boise, Idaho.
''In the early days Of the North
west" the report said, beavers
were plentiful and their pelts
formed one of the greatest sources
Of revenue for the Indians and ear
" day settlers.
Beaver Colonies Transported.
"After the animals were trapped
out, the streams had nothing to
check the silt in the spring runoff.
Consequently. gu1lies were washed
through the surf ounding meadows
and drained the water reserve table
lower. As a result Of this. and also
overgrazing on the surrounding
hills. the once-productive meadows
became dry. barren and more or
less waste land.
"A few years ago the idea was
conceived to attempt to transplant
few colonies of beavers in one Of
our most eroded streams. We car
ried them in for miles by hand to
get them started. In few years
they have performed almost a mir.
acle."
