Expensive Fence Elk Problem Answer • The best solution to the pro- blem of elk damage on the Ted Richert farm in the Skokomish Valley would be an elk proof fense a minimum of 2V miles long and possibly needed five miles long, the Shelton Nimrod Club was told at a mcting Thurs- day night. Attending the meeting were Richert and two sons, Gerald and George, along with State Game Department officials. The club had invited them to appear at the meeting in an ef- fort to seek a solution to the pro- blem which came to light when 10 elk were shot on the farm sev- eral weeks ago. Fred Roundy, Olympia, who is with the damage control di- vision of the Game Department, told the group that thor(' were three possible solutions: Kill off the 250 ,o 300 elk which are in the area. Erect the elk proof fence. Purchase the Rdchert property. The best solution, Roundy said, since no one wants to kill off the elk, and Richert stated he would not sell his farm, would be the fence. The Game Department has a number of elk and deer fences in the State, Rotmdy said, and has a policy that the Department will furnish the materials if the land owner will erect the fence. The department has offered Ri- chert the materials for the need- ed fence, Roundy said. Richert stated that the 2V2 miles of fence which was pro- posed would cost up to $1,500 a mile to install, and, would do his farm operation no good at all, and, that he did not feel he should have to bear that cost for no benefit to his farm opera- tion. If additional fence in pla- ces around the property where he would benefit from it were needed, R.ichert said, he would be glad to participate in the construction. The proposed fence would be 94 inches high and of a six- inch wire mesh. Posts would be 11 feet tall and set about two feet in the ground. The Game Department, Roun- dy said, has a few deer fences in Mhson County around vine- yards in the Grapeview area. Bob err, president of the Nim- rod club, told the meeting he and two other club mem)ers had visited the Richert farm, and, had observed for themselves the damage done by the elk. There is definitely a l)roblem, be said, and the meeting had been called in hopes of finding a solution to it. After hearing the comments on the situation, the club voted to do everything in its power to- wards getting the needed fence built, t They discussed attempting to get the Stffte Game Department to make an exception to its po- licy ono participating in the construction of fences in this case, and, if this was not pos- sible to attempt to raise the nec- essary funds locally and through requests for help from clubs in other areas and from the state sportsmen's council. The club also agreed to pro- vide as much volunteer help as possible to the Game Depart- ment in efforts to keep the elk herds herded away from the R.i- chert property until they move back into higher ground as spring approaches. Others from the Game Depart. ment who attended the meeting were Kelly Land, danmge con- trol officer for the Olympia Pe- ninsula, and A1 Rasmussen, lo- cal Game Protector. 81st Year No. 9 Published in "Christmastown, U.S.A.", Shelton, Washington 10 Cents Per Copy Thursday, M&rch 2, 1967 Entered an second class matter at the pont office at Shelton.

AINIE ARONSON, (inset) has retired from his job as engineer with the Simpson Timber Company railroad after 41 years with the company. During those years, he has had his hand on the throttle of the engine which pulled innumerable trains of logs down tO the Simpson plants on the waterfront here from logging areas. Retirement will give him time to do some of the things he did not have time to do when he was work- Ing. Commenting on Aronson's retirement, Bob Whitmarsh, business agent for IWA Local 3-38 said "Financially, along with his social secur- ity, Arnle will be getting a pension that was negotiated by the IWA in 1961. The IWA and Simpson came out with a plan known as the Simp- son-IWA retirement, which was designed to provide a measure of secur- ity for those who retired under its terms. The plan has been updated financially since its origin." Aronson has been a member of the IWA local here since its formation.
