about fact aroand Hereford
recently; and though no-
thing can be done about the
wind, the county commiss-
ioners court Is trying to do
something about coyotes by
offering a $2 bounty on coy-
ote scalps.
The two dollar fee will be
paid for each coyote kill-
ed since Oet. XI, and collect-
ion can be made at the coun-
ty clerk's office. ,
The action was taken,
County Judge Fred W. Baird
said, In view of the serious
coyote menace to sheep and
chickens. Bevrral losses have
been reported already, and
the coyotes are really getting
tough.
