Early farmers who raised
sheep were plagued with a
problem of wandering dogs,
which developed into wanton
killers of their flocks.
One Kentucky farmer of the
early 1800‛s described it this
way:
"Perhaps, one of the great-
est obstacles to the keepers of
sheep has been the savage
destruction- made among them
by worthless curs kept
throughout our country."
He devised a simple method
of guarding his sheep
in each flock on pasture,
he'd put a few cows with
nursing calves. With them, he
also placed a few two or
three-year-old steers.
Taking a leashed, gentle
dog into the flock, he'd set the
dog on the sheep. Immediate-
ly, the cows, trying to protect
their calves, advanced on the
dog. The steers soon followed
the example of the cows and
also attacked the dog.
Steers, reaching four years
old, were removed from the
flock and placed on separate
pasture for fattening for the
yoke New steers were
brought in and soon learned
their duties
Thus, a resourceful farmer

flocks of sheep from killer

come from an 11 per cent excise

excise tax on pistols and

This self-taxing or users-tax
concept has been in effect for 37
years. Since 1938 over $700
million has been collected on
these items. Fifty per cent of
these funds has gone into im-
proving habitat for game; 25
per cent has supported research
and 30 per cent has been used
for buying land for research.
Only some five per cent is used
for administrative overhead.
Distribution of federal funds

bring out the old numbers on
the band. This information has
been returned to Warden Pratt,
indicating the duck was banded
at Kerrobert, Sask, on July 21,
1958.
"Normally, waterfowl do not
survive in the wild as long as
this duck did,” Pratt said
"The previous bands that I
have sent into the banding
laboratory indicated that the
ducks lived for an average of
only two or three years." Pratt
continued. “This 17 year old
duck will help the biologists
determine information that will
be used in setting the yearly
waterfowl seasons and limits.”
During the fall and winter,
over 10,000 reports are filed at
the Laurel, Maryland office and
in some instances, reports about
collected bands are received
before the band information is
logged.

the thousands of individual

scientists, students and state
