MICHIGAN CONSIDERING ABAN
DONMENT OF VERMIN ERAD
ICATION
SAGINAW, Mock., Jan. 14.(/p)—The
Conservation Congress, held at Sagi
naw, Mich., recently, went on record
as favoring a return to the bounty
system of controlling wolves, coyotes,
wildcats, lynxes, foxes, weasles and
certain predatory birds provided pop
ular safeguards are made against
fraudulent collection of bounties. A
uniform rate of bounties for Wiscon
sin, Minnesota and Michigan was re
commended.
Figures covering the three years
prior to 1926 were presented which
disclosed that during that period
bounties were collected on 3,159
wovles, 5,448 foxes, 765 wildcats, 169,
904 weasles and 99,288 hawks and
owls, at an average cost of 92 cents
per bird and animal to the State. Du
ring the same period the State trap
pers took 1,877 wolves, 2,320 foxes,
198 wildcats, 525 weasles and 3,922
hawks and owls at an average net
cost to the State of §13,35 per bird
and animal. The total number of in
dividual birds and animals taken un
der the bounty system was 268,564 as
against 8,842 by the paid trappers, but
much of this difference is accounted
for in the figures on weasles. The
average cost of each wolf killed un
der bounties was $30, and by trappers,
$60.07.
The payment of bounties on crows
and woodchucks was not approved,
the cost being out of proportion to
the importance of their relation to
the preservation of game and to ag
riculture. In four years that Michi
gan paid bounties on these two spe
cies it cost the State $737,590, being
twice the amount paid for all other
species in the same period.
Notwithstanding the above figures,
the Michigan Department of Con
servation states that it has no inten
tion of supporting any bounty in any
for but that it is entirely con
vinced that the paid trapper system
is the only way that vermin can be
controlled.

LOOKING AHEAD
Alaskan progress of the past forecasts the future greatness of
the Northland, and justifies all Alaskans in holding to their firm
faith in the Territory’s possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
working together—actively and steadily—those having to do with Al
askan progress can accomplish much. “Looking Ahead’’ to still great
er things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one way that
a high purpose can be realized.
The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer system—is gradually and pain
stakingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
Alaska; and that the future is bright and promising is attested by
the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead.’’
