Lac La Hache News

AT A SPECIAL meeting of the Lac
La Hache Cattlemen’s Association
members discussed the way the
rounding up and disposal of horses
found on the open range is being
handled in this district. There had
been rumours that owners of valu-
able branded horses were not being
holified, when their horses happened
to turn up in a wild band destined to
be shipped out for mink feed. Also
there was a case reported where par-
ties holding permits for running in
these stray horses in designated
areas were infringing on the rights

of other permit holders.

man at Enterprise Station.

Suggest Coyote
Bounty Be Stopped
For Two Years

A game department suggestion
that the bounty on coyotes be sus-
spended for two years received the
support of the B.C. Sheep Breeders
Co-Op Association in Kamloops last
Saturday.

The suspension wlil be a test to'see
whether the game department and
casual hunters can inflict enough
damage on the ranks of marauding
coyotes to keep them under control.

Advocate of the request to the gov-
ernment was G. A. West of the game
department. He admitted the depart-
ment was putting itself “behind the
eight ball” in supporting the suspen-
sion of the hounty, but he said he
was personally confident the job
could be done by the department at
a saving to the government — and
the taxpayers — of $17,000 a year.

What was happening very often.
said the speaker, was that coyotes
killed by the department would be
taken and the person responsible
would then produce the animal him-
self and claim the bounty.

“The bounty does not help us at
all in my opinion. It makes things
appear at the moment as though we
are not doing any work. We don't

Of Location Change

On or about March 15th we will be moving one block
up Oliver Street beside the VOGUE.

Workmen are now tearing down the dividing wall

between the Vogue and the premises formerly occupied

- by Lee’s Ladies Wear. When this work is completed, one
large store will occupy the main floor of the building.
This will be known as BRANDLY’S DRUG STORE. The
Vogue, which has been operated by Mrs. BE. R. Brandly
since it was established in 1950, will cease to operate as

a separate business.

Our new quarters will give us a greater floor space
for merchandising display than our present location and
will result in better service for our customers.

want the bounty and think we can

m any case the average hunter will

so would any of you (the sheep-
breeders) but the suspension will
give us a chance to show that we
ean control the coyotes without the
bounty, and if we fail, it can he put

Nobody had any thing to lose in
this respect — the only people to
sufier being the crooked coyote
thieves.

At the moment B.C. is like an is-
land surrounded by other territo:
where there was no bounty. Mr. West
said he was sure coyotes were
brought in from the other territories
for the B.C. bounty.
