ira expense to protect his cattle from
the poisonous plants. During the 1913
grazing season he lost ten steers,
which, despite the efforts of the herder,
trespassed on the Ial kspur area and
succumbed to the poisoning which re-
suited. The following season, under
similar conditions, "a head of valuable
range cattle were poisoned. The next
year only five steers died from lark
spur poisoning, while the following
year the mortality aggregated eighteen
head. In 1917 the larkspur eradication
campaign was instituted, and as a con-
sequence of the work of that season
the cattle losses were curtailed 70 only
five animals. The next year the work
was continued and not a single case of
steer mortality from larkspur poison
ing occurred. In 1919 only two steers
died, while last year the mortality also
was limited to two animals. Recently
the larkspur area of the range has
been grazed by a band of 1000 sheep.
One Hundred Acres crubbed.
The first season about one hundred
acres of range were grubbed, the poi

larkspur picks and scattered in ex.

total cost of grubbing the one hundred
acres the first year amounted to
