The wolves and coyotes that are now working havoc among the domestic animals as well as game in this State have come from two sources. Some few have worked their way south from the big timber of Wisconsin while the larger number have come from Missouri. Two years ago the drive against these animals reached its height in the latter state. The survivor of that (campaign were driven across the Mississippi River on the ice into western Illinois. There they bred among the hills and have now become a serious menace in many sections of thp State.
