Beavers To Be Moved To Rainefer National Park Effort
Klickitat county agent B W Cooney prepares an experiment with the United States biological survey to relocate about 60 live beavers from Walla Walla county to Rainefer national park. The plan involves L K Couch Darwin and Van Ausdale handling the operation as laws prevent residents from destroying the pests. Cooney brings Nebraska beaver experience and prior surveys show practical extermination results along the Columbia river. Meanwhile Mr and Mrs J A Dumendon relocate into a remodeled residence at the north edge of town on the newly acquired falfa tract.
