 In the Cochetopa and Dike national forests in Colorado and the Tusayan and Coconimo forests in Arizona. 400, 600 prairie dogs have been killed by the department of agriculture since its campaign of destruction was declared on the rodents. In a statement issued the department says that this work was done at a cost of about SIP, ,0o0 and it is estimated that the forage which the rodents devoured would have been sufficient for about 15,500 sheep. or about 1,S00 head of cattle, valued at $150,000. The hides of the prairie dogs are practically worthless in this coun- try. American and English furriers secure better skins from Siberia for cents apiece, and giovemakers say that the skins are too small to be worked up economically.
