WAYNE COUNTY. 



T. C. MADDEN. Newfoundland: 



Chicken hawk, fox, mink and iiolec-at destroying poultry. 

 game, etc. 



GEORGE M. DAY. Dy berry: 



Mink in former years was very destructive to poultry, wild- 

 cats very destructive to rabbits: no personal loss in past two 

 years. Higher prices for minks' fur have reduced their num- 

 ber to a minimum; wildcat fur very low, twenty to fifty cents. 

 and they may increase in number unless bounty is raised. 



TUNIS SMITH, Soutli Sterling: 



Have seen where pheasants, rabbits and birds have been 

 killed by cats, foxes, skunks, minks and hawks.
