Hunters Get Two Wolves and Four Foxes In Porter Co.

Valparaiso, Ind., (March long ago several hundred farmers and sportsmen from Indiana cities gathered in Jasper county for a wolf drive. Not a wolf was killed, ibut recently a little patry of farmers living east of here spent a day in the open and accounted for two large wolves and four wolves. The large one weighed 54 pounds and the length of its skin from head to tail was six feet and eight inches. “We have been out hunting for the last three winters,” one of the men said in an interview. “In the winter of 1915 we had the luck to get 17 foxes. In 1916 we got 15 and in the recent winter six foxes were killed/’ In conclusion the hunter said: “We are all farmers, but are safe in saying that we can catch any fox or wolf that runs on the face of the earth.”
