LAMO|LLE RANCHERS
WILL KILL RODENTS

Saturday, May s. is the date set by
the farmers and ranchers of Lamoille
Valley for the beginning Of war of
determination on the grouno SPUR
rels in that valley, says the Elko Free
Press. Under the direction of Ches-
ter Bremen, county agent for the
farm bureau. $4,000 pounds of poi
soned grain has been secured and
distributed among the valley folks.
which will be distributed over is, o
acres of cultivated and range land.
The squirrels are not so plentiful
this year as in the past three years,
due to the cold and wet spring. but
even at hat thousands Of them can
be seen on the cultivated land and In
the adjacent sagebrush land. Most
of the farmers of this valley have
been busy all spring poisoning their
cultivated areas. but it has been found
that individual poisoning is not eff
fective. He kills off the squirrels
on his land n day, and before his
neighbors get around to poison their
lands, the squirrels have again in
tested the land, but il all the land is
poisoned the same day the result will
be effective.
: Some time ago, at a meeting of the
farm bureau, ii was voted to make an
assessment of four cents per acre on
all the land in the valley, this money
being used for the purchase of poi
soned grain. to be distributed to the
ranchers for use next Saturday. a
check will be kept on all the ranchors
to see that they do the work proper
and those neglecting to scatter he
poison will have the work done for
them at their expense.
The biological survey hunters and
trappers are aiding in the distribution
of the grain, and the forest service
is also cooperating and working the
ground in the forest that is heavily
infested. County Agent Bremen md
the biological survey men will have
charge of the outside land, but all
work will be done under direction
of the rodent committees. who have
the work in charge.
Poisoned oats will be principally
used, prepared and shipped from
Reno. and will cost, delivered to La
noble. six cents per pound. 1t has
been found that poisoned fruit is very
effective. Mr.. Myer last week killing
300 squirrels on a very small patch
of ground. Another effective bait is
made from cottage cheese. the objec-
ton to this being its short life.

ILL|PAH FORMATION
NOT LIKE FALL0N'S

The Illipah Basin Oil & Gas Com
pany was the pioneer in selecting
Fallon as a progressive oil field and
although the biologists declared that
the presence of once active volcano
formation made the prospecting for
oil a hazardous adventure. the COM
pany had the faith and the backing
to explore, says the White Pine News.
At Illipah, in White Pine county,
the geological formation is very much
more to the liking of the experts,
the examination for a report was that
signs of volcanic action has been dis
covered at a point about forty miles
south of the Illipah field. The Illipah
formation is very like that Of. the
proven fields in Wyoming.
According to Engineer MacFarland
who explained the formation to a
party of Ely people, consisting of w.
A. Leonard, editor of the Record, J. G..
Wheeler and George E. Moore, who
made a trip to the fields this week,
the structure Of the field is exposed
and may be read like a book. From
this. said Mr.. Mcfarland, I'VE were
able to spot our first well on the apex
of the anticline without any guess
work, which gives us great advantage
over the Fallon field, where oil has
just been found, and the finding O.
this oil has largely disposed of our
chance of failure. II does not seem
reasonable now that we can fail to
get, not only oil, but a gusher at ILL
pah, as the formation now being
drilled is impervious to either water,
gas or oil. 1t is the cork to the bottle
said Mr.. mcfarland, and it is in
tight. When the drill penetrates t.
the sand it should "uncork' the
gusher.
