PRAIRIE DOG POISON

To the man who wishes to rid
his field or pasture of prairie
dogs, the winter months are gol-
den. The natural habits of the
animals, food conditions and
man S own occupations make this
the best opportunity to carry on
such a campaign.
The following formula is an ex-
cellent one. The poison may be
prepared in any quantity de sired,
the only requirement. being that
the ingredients be used in the
proportions given:
Strychnia sulfate------2 on.
Potassium cyanide p OF.
Anise seed -----------2 OF.
syrup at.
Wheat blu.
Dissolve the strychnia sulfate
in one pint of boiling water. Dis
solve the potassium cyanide in II
little hot water in a different
vessel. Pour the syrup in the
mixing vessel and add inc potas-
SUM cyanide. Stir thoroughly.
Then pour in the solution of
strychnia sulfate, stirring mean
time. Add the anise seed. The
poisons will not dissolve together.
and when they are mixed. thr
cyanide tends to make the atry Ii
nine go to the bottom. This makes
1t necessary to keep the mixture
thoroughly stirred before pouring
1t over the wheat.
The wheat should be put into
a tight metal tub AID tn mixed
poisons poured over it. STR the
wheat thoroughly until every
grain is well wet. Then sprinkle
on very slowly a few pounds OF
fine corn meal, stirring the wheat
at the same time, so that each
kernel receives IA light coating.
Only sufficient meal should be
used to exactly take up the ex-
ira moisture.
The kind of syrup used is i'm
material. Its chief office is to
make the poison stick to the
wheat.
The poison should be used the
day after it is mixed, us it loses
strength with age. \ bright
warm day after storm or cold
spell is best, because the dogs
come out at this time and are
hungry. Winter is much better
than summer, because other food
is more scarce at this time.
The wheat can be most readily
handled in an old pail and dis
tributed with an old spoon. Put
about tcaspoonful in three or
four heaps in and around the
mouth of each hole that is occu-
pied by dogs. To aid in the work
and prevent the omission of holes,
the ground may be marked off in
strips or blocks by the use of
sticks with pieces of muslin tied
10 them for markers.

GOOD POINTSF
THE MOTORIST
MiCheIin Tells How to Locate
Small PunCtureS in
Tubes.

Nearly every motorist has eXper-
fenced the eXasperating task of locat-
ing small puncturcs in inner tubes.
The following suggestion may serve to
tighten his trouble when he next
meets with such mishap.
In the first place the tube should
be examined carefully to determine II
the puncture is large enough to be
seen. If not Immediately visible the
perforatlon may be very small, no
larger than needle point, and in this
case II Is much harder to locate.
Initiate the tube slightly and hold II
near the ground. Very often IL the
road is dry the puncture may be de-
tected by the disturbance of the dust
made by the escaping air
II this test cannot be made or II II
does not discover the puncture, pre-
sent each portion of the tube to your
cheek until you can feel the rush of
escaping air. These methods failing
to locate the puncture your only
course Is to immerse the tube In a
