NEW RODENT POISON SECURES REMARKABLE
 RESULTS IN PHOENIX

PHOENlN. Feb. 7.-After years Of experimenting and constant improve ment. the bureau. of biological survey. U. \. department of agriculture has perfected a tasteiess poison which is sure death to pocket eophers. squir- rels. etc. The new poison has been tried out thoroughly during the past week in cooperation with the Arizona Orange Growers association in the groves north of Phoenix and remark able results have been secured
 The poison is sprnkied over slices of carrots or sweet potatoes which are cut into long strips so as to be too large for gopher to place in his cheek pouches without first cutting the slice into small pieces. While the gopher is cutting the bait into smaii- CT pieces he becomes poisoned and dies.
 Gophers cause immense losses to the people of this state by killing and repair of irrisating ditches. The loss in the city of Phoenix amounts to considerable and hundreds of trees. shrubs. lawns and garden are ruined annually. This loss has been cut con siderable during the past year but everyone is urged to secure some of this new poison and treat every active gopher runway. The poisoning should be followed up and repeated and ev- eryone shoRld purchase one or two traps al the local hardware or seed stores.
 Plans are now under way to launch the 1921 campaign against the go phers. Several thousand dollars worth of the new poison has been re-
 
 eryone in the state will receive a free allotment as demonstration. ship ments will be made to every county in the state immediately. The cam paign will he continued on the coop erative basis between the l. :. bio logical survey and the agricultural ey- tension service of the university of Arizona with state headquarters at 4i6 Heard building.
 An interesting display relative to ihe control of rodent pests and pre- datory animals is on display this week in the south window of the Adams hotel, and scores of letters from all over the state continue to ar rive al state headquarters indorsing the cooperative work Of the state and federal government in assisting the people in this valuable work

much to one safety pin because it isn't
safe.
| know you know the gentleman
who was forced to leave the Amuse-
ment Park at 33rd and Wabash rather
suddenly the other night? You must
know him because he always says that
he wouldn't run from anybody. Well,
one little man with a blade" made

now be careful how he calls every
lady "dearie" without finding out first
ii he best bet" is hanging around.
