Like the cayuses turned out by In
dians on the Yakima reservation in the
State of Washington, south of here,
the horses of the Caribou thrive too
well, and have become a burden on the
country that ranchers have pronounc
ed intolerable. Provincial officials have
lent their aid for the spring cleaning
of the Caribou.
Provincial participation resulted
when the British Columbia govern

I UPS in the past had fallen short of ex

enticed domesticated animals off to
