JOHANNHSBUBO. South Africa.,
.tune 20—(U.P—Tlie Johannesburg [
division council is paying a bounty |
of $2.50 for each baboon Wiled In ;
an effort to annulate the war on
the marauding animals which are
causing havoc to the larms ol
South Afrlaa,
Higher rewards are paid In dis-
tricts overrun by huge troops of
baboons wliich raid orchards, steal
crops, mutilate sheep and cattle,
and carry off chickens. The gov-
ernment considers It better to of-
fer premiums far the slaughter of j
the animals than meet damage
claims of the farmers.
The havoc soems never to end.
From the equator south to the
cape, the baboon outlaws survive
In settled areas in countless thou-
sands. Jackals and leopards lake
their toll, but still the baboon
ranks as South Africa’s public
enemy No. 1. Ouns. traps, poison
capsules, and baited cages are used
every day in the fight against
them.
One farmer, desperate after heavy j
losses, caught a large male ba-
boon. sheared tt. painted It white
with red rings around the eyes
and turned It loose In the hope
that the strange apparition would
scare the rest of the tribe from
his farm. No really effective meth-
od. however, has yet been found of
dealing with them
Skins Virtually Worthless
The skins have no commercial
value and until some way Is found
of making a profit out of baboons.

WASHINGTON June 39-ai.B-
The farm-mortgage deot has readi-
ed the lowest figure In 17 fears,
according to the department of
; agrloulture bureau of agricultural
economics
' The bureau said the amount
probably has declined considerably
from the last available figure ol
(7.254^21.000 on Jan 1. 1937. a* d
'now 'may be below $7,000.000 000
1 Figures compiled by the bureau
show that Mie farm-mortgage debt
declined nearly $2.000 000.000 be-
tween the high point in 1930 and
1937 Most of the decline resulted
from foreclosures between 1930 and
1935
Increased Income since 1935 has
enabled mat |V farmers to reduce
their fnortgages through cash pay-
ments. the bureau said. Some re-
duction was made also by down-
ward 1 adjustments by. public and
private lending agencies.
Debts Exceeded Kale Price
The bureau, discussing the
marked changes in the capital
structure of agriculture since 1929
said that land values were written
sharply dovnf as Arm Income de-
creased during the depression; that
many farms were sold for less
than the mortgage debt.
But Muring the past five years,
the bureau said, a large part of
this loss has been recovered
through rising farm values And
while farm values Increased, farm-
mortgage debt declined.
'dianges In the amouil* ol
farm-mortgage debt during 1935
a-d 1936 reflect largely two oppo-
site forces: (1) liquidation of debt
primarily through distress trans-
fers: 12) Increases In debt through
greater activity In the volume of
land transfers.” the bureau said
The number of foreclosures, or
''distress, transfers.” lias declined
steadily In the past four years The
bureau estimated there were 18
foreclosures per 1.000 fanners fa

Bathtubs are the cause of so many
accidents that since 1929 insurance
companies have paid more money
In claims resulting from such ac-
cidents than the government has
spent on relief.
T'lieae accidents have cost In-
