Muskrat and nuilalo.
(Boston Herald.)
The extermination of the buffalo
and other forms 01' wild lite has not
been without its lesson to this gen-
eration ,and it is rather gratitylnu
to know that southern state is ap-
plying the lesson. The department
of conservation or Louisiana has an-
nounced officially that the “marshy
lowlands of the state are bolus con-
verted into a. heries ot vast "rat
ranches.” where the land is leased
for trapping lights and a carelul
chock kept on trapping to insure ii
plentltul supply of breeding si‘ock.‘
There is to be a bioligical survey at
the muskrat and other tur~boarors
by scientists. "the. state ‘collected
$21. 000 in severance taxes on all
pelts taken in 1924.25 and is appar-
ently receiving cooperation from its
30, 000 hunters and trappers. What
a refreshing difference between this
careful conservation by the so-called
New Scull: and the widespread
slaughter o! the buaalool years ago
by the New West!
The Louisiana. statistics are as-
belief is that the great fur-beating
sections of Alaska. Canada. New
York. the western states- and Milt
paradise or hunters. Pennsylvania.
The Louisiana output in 1928-31
was 6.000. 000 pelts of all kinds;
Canada did not have hair so many.
Alaska trapped and shot only 8.00.-
000. New York 350. 000. Wisconsin
500. 000 and Pennsylvania 1.000.000.
The southern state expects a total
catch or 10. 000. 000 pelts in a year
or two. Already it has become the
foremost tur~beariug stats. "rho
raccoon catch of 1924- 25 was valu-
ed at $1. 000 .000. and 5.,00 000 oppos-
aunt's were taken. with e. value of
$375. 000. The value ot the total
catch was estimated at $6, 800. 000.
Here is "diversification ct crops"
