 PRAIRIE DOGS

PHOENIX, Ariz., April 25 Civ Ass,,. ciated Press) ).-One million .cres in six counties of Arizona Twill be sprinkled with carloads of poisoned grain this month, and is expected that 15,OO0,OO0 prairie dogs will be wiped out as the result of this deadly seeding. This is the ann6uncement made here by D. A. Gilchsist of the United States biological sirvey. and rodent pest inspector foH Arizona. Gilchrist added that 1000 farmers will take part in the campaign Sgainst the pests in the counties of Apache. Ma vajo, Coconino, Yapapai, bchise and Graham.
 Thousands of dollars1 worth of crops and valuable forsEe on the cat. tic ranges are destroyed annually by the prairie dogs, Gile,Aist stated, and t,.ey propagate so rdpidly it is neces- sary to wage constaIt warfare against them. Thousands Ire being killed daily by the state bd federal work CTS, but the prairie Hogs continue to grow in number, So tremendous ef- fort has been Manned for this month to cut them of It is estimated that the poisoned g] ain will do away with 95 per cent Of those on the acreage treated.
 Statistics show that on an average there ate 15 prairie dogs to an acre. Each sne usually has from three to five burrows. A colony of the pest can ruin field completely in short time.
 The success of the work so far, 4ilchrist said, has been due to the united efforts of the livestock and farmers association, county agricul- tural agents, United States forestry service officials and agents and off cials of the federal and state biolog- ical survey bureaus.

THIS BIRD KNOWS NOT
 WHEREOF HE SPEAKS


 "Valdez could get all the trade of this section if it would provide safe place for our boats," writes a down. sound correspondent to The Miner this week. Continuing he says: T would perfer trading in your city, as my neighbors, as your prices are from 20 to 30 per cent lower on the same goods than Cordova prices; but I can not come to a town where am con- pelled to watch my boat to keep her from being damned into small wharf by multitude of others. have just returned from Cordova, where I purchased large stock of supplies, all of which could have saved money on in Valdez. Can't you remedy this trouble by having your people pro- vide place for the small boats?" The writer of the above letter, who asked that his name be withheld from publication, voices the complaint of every boat-owner from Port Wells to Tatitlek. They prefer to trade in Valdez, but can find no docking facilities for the boats. When the council natures it's plans under con sideration for new dock for small boats the city will draw practically all the down-sound trade, chiefly be- cause our merchants carry larger stocks and undersell their Cordova competitors.-V Valdez Miner

At last Richey is to have a
doctor, after being without a
professional man of this class
for many months past. This has
caused untold Inconvenience
and much needless suffering to
many people in and around

of the coming of a physician at
last is indeed welcome news.
DR.. Julius Frank of Fair

ago, and while here made pre-
paratiOns to locate permanent
ly in the city. He has leased part
of the building belonging to
James Clopton and is havi lg

REDWATER PROGRESSING

'In the bright lexicon of
youth, there is no such word
as fair.
Even SO in this youthful west
ern country with it's rolling
plains, its picturesque hills, its
prosperous towns and busy
ranches there is no such word
as ''fail".
At last we feel assured that
Redwater will soon be a town
of comfortable size a "sister
city" to the prosperous town of
Circle; central point of attr-
action for business men be-
tween Circle and Richey.
Mr.. Peter Rorvik, a pioneer
of Montana who helped put
Circle on the map, a business
genius with energy enough to
move mountains of opposition,
has taken charge of the store
at Redwater. The reins of
progress are in his hands.
Judge Jones, a familiar figure
around the country, has taken
over the postoffice. In addi-
ton he will carry a line of to-
bacco, candy, stationery, ice
cream, soft drinks, etc.
In a short time an up-to-
date blacksmith will open for
business at Redwater. About
the first of June a pool hall and
a restaurant will open their
doors to the public. Together
with the feed barn and commun
ity hall, there will be quite a
settlement with which to start.
We have said, there is no such
word as 'ffail."
