cohnty. County Agent J. A. Barton
estimates that there are not now
over a doz#n wolves in the county.
The activities• of Mr. Baker's son,
who is government trapper in Brown
County, has helped the situation In
this county,«as he has trapped over
a hundred wolves in that county
which .probably ranged in Coman-
che County. Reports from Brown
•County are that the wolves are also
disappearing in that section.
During the winter, however,!
wolves are expected to come in from
other parts of the state during the
breeding season, according to Mr.
Baker, and trappers will be kept
