Total expenditures which were incurred in the administration of the Wolf 

 Bounty Act were the sum of $25,435.24, of which, as has been previously stated, the 

 sum of $25,357.00 was actually paid out as bounty, and details of which payments are 

 set forth in the following statistical table: — 



Brush Wolves 50 @ $ 6.00 $ 300.00 



673 (g) $15.00 $10,095.00 



723 $10,395.00 



Timber Wolves 73 @ $ 6.00 $ 438.00

1,031 $14,808.00 



Pups 17 @ $ 2.00 $ 34.00 



24 © $ 5.00 $ 120.00 



41 $ 154.00 



TOTAL 1,795 $25,357.00 



In respect to wolves killed in a County, bounty is paid by the County Treasurer, 

 and forty per cent of the amount is rebated to the Counties by the Provincial 

 Treasurer. In the Northern Districts the total amount of bounty is paid by the 

 Province. 



It is of interest to note that 59% of the wolves killed in 1938-39 were 

 classified as timber wolves, whereas the ratio was 55% in 1937-38, 48% in 1936-37 

 and 40% in 1935-36.
