WHEAT LOSSES BY
RODENTS 6 MILLION

Rodents levy an annual tax of
more than s12,000,000 upon agricul-
tural products in the United States.
That Of this sum the wheat crop suf-
fers to the extent of $6,000,000 is a
conservative statement. Minnesota's
share of this may be 100000.
This estimate of state loss must be
regarded as only approximately cor
rect since conditions vary in different
parts of the state and in different
years, and it is impossible to obtain
exactly correct data on this point.
Reports to this Office from various
county agents give from $500 to
$4,000 and $4,000 as the annual
county loss on grain caused by gray
gophers," as they are commonly
though enormously called. and the

striped gopher" so called These
animals are not true gophers but be-
long to family of ground squirrels
known as spermophilids. The only
true gopher in Minnesota is the pock-
ct gopher. The spermaphilids work
almost exclusively on standing grain,
breaking down and destroying more
than they really eat.
When wheat is in shock, or stacks
in the field, field mice are extremely
harmful and in places their great
numbers mean a serious financial loss
The writer has seen the striped
ground squirrel catching grasshop-
pers Of which it seems very fo1fd and
it is also known to eat .cutworms, but
it is doubtful if the good that it does
in consuming these pests balances its
habits of eating wheat and other
grain: This sphermophilid has also
been known to destroy large number

while not such grain eaters as sper-
mophflids do consume some wheat
and do much damage by making
mounds in grain fields which inter-
fere with the knives of the mower be-
sides covering and breaking down
much grain.
These pests of wheat. except the
pocket gopher, are easily controlled
by using poisoned grain which may
be bought already prepared or may
be made by the farmer himself. Pois-
oned grain is most effective when
used in many of our far western
states.-when green food is--not

that comparatively few will make these sacrifices

When you have written advertisement, read IL

Is it true?
Does it ring with sinceritX|
Does it knock slur?
Has it too much novelty?
Is the language too fowery?
is it grammatical?
Is the wording as direct and simple as it should De:
Does each word best express the meaning you want
convey?
Can any bart of your text be misunderstood!
Are the punctuation and spelling correct?
Is their too much copy for the space?
will vour text of twenty-five words fewer make
the reader think of a hundreds?
q Does the illustration link up with the text!
Does it tell story?
Does your "ad" as whole have the atmosphere OF
the goods advertised?
Will it get your message across!
Will the type set-up and the general layout permit
the text to be read easily?
Will the 'ad" appeal directly to the audience you
