FOREST SERVICE ANNOUNCE
INTERESTING RESULTS

Interesting results have just been
announced by the forest service as a
result of the campaign conducted in
southern California by Stanley Z.
Piper, expert of the biological survey
of the department OF agriculture, TO
exterminate ground squirrels and
gophers.
Extensive experiments were tried u
determine the best means OF killing
of these destructive little animals.
and It was found that the most efiec-
tive results were obtained by using
poisoned green or ripening barley
heads The squirrels are exceedingly
fond of this green herbago, and eager.
~ ate the poisoned food placed along
their runways. Tests were also made
with oats, wheat. barley. raisins,
prunes. dried apples and cracked corn,
but these did not p>uve 20 successful,
Barley Is Effective.
While green barley proved most
successful for poisoning ground squir-
rels, yet the difficulty of procuring
sufficient supply in all localities led
to dried barley grain being tried. The
grain was treated with strychnine sui
phate saccharine and eggs. and al.
though this combination proved very
destructive to the squirrels. It has
practically no effect upon doves and
quail In fact. a deliberate attempt
was made to poison these birds al
their watering places, but no bad eff
feet resulted The poisoned grain was
also used In fields grazed over by
sheep and produced no III effects
whatever.
Fruit as Lures,
The experiments also proved that
sophers were partial 10 raisins and
dried apples. and these were success
fully used in the poison experiment.
1t was found that by sprinkllng the
apples or ralsins with the strychnine
solution. as effective results were pro
duced as could be obtained by Insert
ing the poison into the fruit.
The experiments for determination
of squirrels also resulted In the death
OF a considerable number OF rabbits.
and in other experiments 1t was found
that poisoned oats proved very effec-
tive in killing both jacks and cotton
tails Green alfalfa was also used
with good results for the same pur'
pose.

Fiscal Court Tuesday morning j.
Z. Burgher was appointed Com

Commissioners from Clark county
to erect a steel bridge across Lul-
begrud creek near West Bend.
The creek is the line between
Powell and Clark, thus the ex-
pense will be borne by the two
counties accordingly to the num-
Der of viters in each county. AS
Clark has about three times as
many voters, that county will
have to put up about three
fourths of the cost. The bridge
will probably cost $1,000 or $500
outside of the approaches. The
citizens near the bridge say they
will readily give enough money
to put up the approacher. Pow
ell county has been burdened the
past few years trying to get Red
river bridged, and it seems very
liberal on the part of our Fiscal
court to do their duty IN this
matter at this time,

To the Republicans of Powell County

There is some campaign talk

to cause the Republicans to dis
favor me in our convention in re-
gard TO money matters for cam
paign purposes. The leading Re-
publicans seemed to have sane
toned my proposition apparently
on the money question until a
few days ago.

publican last spring when it was
being agitated that l would be
the coming candidate. | told
him the amount l thought we
could use in legitimate way.
He thought the candidate for
Judge should put in twice as
much. | told him that on condl-
tons | would put in that much.
He remarked that that would be
practically or equal the same. l
had consultation with another
leading Republican two months
ago, and he gave me a partial
outline of how the campaign
ought to be run, and thought l
ought to put in the amount my
