SAYS RODENTS WORSE
ENEMY THAN WOLVES

Washington, Feb. 4.-The great
gray wolf has slain his thousands,
but the prairie dog has slain his tens
of thousands.
Thus might the story of Saul and
David be paraphrased on the great
open ranges OF the west where there
is no homeward lea for the lowing
herds and where the sheep are not
gathered at twilight into the sheep
fold.
There was a time, now happily
fading into the dim past. when pre-
datory animals destroyed live stock
to the value of s20,O00,OOO a year,
but every year, down to the present
time, rodents destroy on those same
ranges forage that would be worth
$150,000, 900 year as pasturage for
cattle and sheep, beside grain crops
of equal value-a destruction of
that much potential live stock value.

DR.. e. W. Nelson, chief of the bu-
reau of biological survey of the U.
S. department of agriculture, in a
paper read before the American Ma
tional Live Stock association at the
recent annual meeting in Denver.
The purpose of the comparison, pri-
marily, was to convince live stock
men of the range country of the ne
cessity of closer and more active CO.
operation with the government in
the destruction of such rodents as
the prairie dog, the ground squirrel,
the jack rabbit, and the pocket 60
