FOLLOWS UNIQUE TRADE.
vinton Man Averages $125 Month
From CATCHING Gophers.

Special to Times Republican.
Vinton, July 1S.-William Richmeyer
yesterday caught los gophers around
Vinton, which is probably the largest
number of gophers ever caught in this
state in one day. He has been working
in Benton county for some time past
and 1t is stated that he averages $125
a month in bounty from the county and
in addition to that amount he collects
ten cents per animal caught from the
farmer upon whose farm the gopher Is
taken. He has developed a very
unique and profitable business, and Is
rapidly Kidding this community Of the
pest.
There are several others at work
around Vinton catching gophers, but
none of them have had the great sue
cess of Richmeyer. He seldom places
a trap but what he is shortly re-
warded with a catch, which nets him
twenty cents apiece. County Auditor
Turner stated yesterday afternoon that
the county has paid out bounty for
1000 gophers this spring. which in
money means $500, and that they are
now coming in as rapidly as before.
