AFTER FIVE YEARS WAR.
Kansas Has at Last Won Victory
Over Prairie Dogs

Kansas is almost at the end of a war
OF five years duration on the prairie
dogs. The war began Immediately after
the session of the Legislature in 1901,
and has lasted until the present year.
The authorities who have been in COM
mand of the States forces now believe
that they have the fight won and that
the prairie dogs in Kansas are nearly
extinct. While the war of determination
has been waged against prairie dogs, it
has also been directed against the pocket
gophers. The prairie dogs infest the
western end of the State and the pocket
gophers destroy crops in the eastern
third of Kansas.
Five years ago the depredations of the
prairie dogs and pocket gophers reached
a point where the commissioners of the
various eastern counties offered rewards
for the gophers, and the Legislature of
the State appropriated $1,000 to be used
in conducting experiments which would
result in the discovery of a means of
Kidding the State Of prairie dogs. The
first appropriation was made by the Leg
islature of 1901, and the second appro-
priation was made in 1903 The State
authorities determined to find means
of Kidding Kansas Of the rodents. When
the fight began in 1901, d. f. Lantz,
field agent of the State Agricultural
college, made an investigation, at the
end of which he reported that 2,0O0 900
acres of land, or as much land as the
State owned, was made useless by the
invasion of the prairie dogs.
The war against prairie dogs probably
would not have started had it not been
for the campaign of the cattlemen of the
western counties. The prairie dog is
subject to periodical occurrences of con-
tagious diseases. These diseases carry
off the animals with great rapidity, but
until 1901 the rodents had been free
from the diseases for three or four years.
As a consequence, they had increased
until they were a menace to the ranches
in the western counties.
Experiments conducted by the State
Agricultural college showed that carbon
disulphide and strychnine were the most
effective poisons which could be used
in the war for the determination of the
prairie dogs. The State sent a number
of men into the field and spent in the
neighborhood Of $4,000 in exterminat-
ing the dogs, and it is claimed that the
State is practically free from them now.
In many instances 10 or 20 dead dogs
were taken from one hole after the poi
son had been applied by the State
agents.

on the bridge work. 1t is stated that
civil action will be taken against the
companies to recover damages.

and at the same time her wonderful

Light shores of Baltic for Forty
Milcs-Mutineers Burned.

The gloom which has settled over
ever known, and the outlook the most
desperate. The palaces of the nobility
are blazing from ST. Petersburg TO
Odessa, and the mutilated bodies Of
bitches of country roads and the gut
tiers of the streets of the rebellious
cities. Mobiles who have been able TO
escape the vengeance of the peasants
in the country and the proletariat in
the town are fleeing to the frontiers,
leaving memorial halls and wide es-
tates as loot for the now fully aroused
people.
The memory of centuries of oppres-
sion seems to stir the masses to mas
sacres of the most revolving cruelty
Believing that each blow struck the
nobility reaches the despotic govern
ment, the peasants are striking deep
and sure. On all the snowy reaches
around Riga mobiles have been slain
by scores, their bodies thrown to the
vultures, and their ancient castles
made scenes of orgies of drunken
peasants. The lands OF the richest es-
tates are divided among the men who
drive away or kill the former owner

and carpets go to peasants huts, and
the castles are destroyed
Sailors on the Baltic Sea declare
