Machine Guns And Rifles Used In Mississippi Cattle
 Conflict

JACKSON, Miss, July 16.-Armed with machine guns and rifles, fed eral force has dug in" in Amite county where a cattle dipping war" is in progress, according to reports reaching here.
 Henry Pruick was shot and killed by officers when, it was alleged he was attempting to blow up dipping vat with dynamite
 Forty-eight vats have been blown up near Liberty daring the last few weeks by unidentified persons.
 Dr. Wilbur McPherson, agent of the bureau of animal husbandry, said today machine gjuns have been mounted to protect the remaining vats.
 The officers in charge have orders to protect life and property" he said.
 Cattle dipping is a federal require ment in fever tick infested areas. Many stockmen refuse to dip their cattle, declaring some cattle are be- hg hurt while being bathed, cows are separated from their young, some swallow the solution and become sick, and there is the expense and trouble of rounding up the cattle for the frequent plunges.
 Stockmen refusing to obey the reg ulation are arrested Sad fined. Vat dynamiting is a frequent occurrence in the quarantined areas in the south.

 For His Capture

BERLIN, July 15.-A reward of 25, ,6OO,00O marks has been offered for the capture of Captain Erhardt, the most dangerous man in Germany who escaped from prison half naked and is believed to be heading for Ba- varia.
 Erhardt was the chief instigator of the unsuccessful Kapp "Putsch," " which attempted to overthrow the re- public and set up monarchy.
 It is considered likely that mon archist plots lie behind his escape and that, free, he will again attempt to stir up a revolt, using the Ruhr crisis as plot material Monarchists in Munich and Leipsic have staged dem onstrations and celebrations follow ing his escape.
 Erhardt had been given permis- sion to take a shower bath because of the excessive heat. He vanished with only the clothing in which he had entered the bathroom. Bolts and locks had not been broken, and 1t is believed friends aided his escape by Furnishing him with keys.

DAMAGE BY RODENTS In
ARIZONA TWO MILLIONS
YEARLY SAYS CILCHRIST

Two million dollars year is the
estimated damage done by rodents in
Arizona, according to D. A. Gilchrist,
in charge of rodent control work for
Arizona. This loss includes that to
ranges, farming crops, fruit trees and
irrigation bitches.
Losses from rodents are far more
important than most people believe,
stated Gilchrist, and he gave exam
pies of the destroying work in the
state. In Pinal county they have
Killed number Of good fruit trees by
girdling them. The great damage is
done to irrigation bitches, where the
water is lost and diverted through the
run-ways. These run-ways stay a
long time after the gopher itself has
been killed. As many as sixty goph-
ers were killed along one mile of a
ditch near Tucson recently.
The survey has a signed statement
from the farmers and stockmen of
Cochise and Graham counties, where
the complete eradication of prairie
dogs has been affected, stating that
the saving this year is worth $780,
900 to them. This is the increased
value Of their range grass available
and the additional farm crops that
would otherwise be destroyed. Tests
made in this territory with growing
sugar beets show that they can be
successfully raised there, where the
land was formerly made worthless by
the large number of prairie dogs.
Gophers have recently attacked the
date palms of the Salt River valley,
eating their way underground and up
into the base Of the tree, resulting in
its death. No outside indication
shows their presence until the tree
dies. One tree so destroyed produced
three hundred pounds of dates the
year before, which sold for one dollar
a pound, making $500 the value Of the
tree for each year. Capitalized at
ten per cent, this would mean a loss
of $1,000.
The use Of poisoned sweet potatoes
has been found to be the most effec-
tive poison bait, and has been used
successfully in eradicating the pests.
The poisoning has been found to be
cheaper than trapping.
Jacks and cottontails will also be
suppressed. The use of poisoned alf-
alfa has been found to be one hundred
per cent effective in killing the cot
tontails, and rabbit proof fences are
recommended for keeping the jacks
out of the crops. County agents and
specialists will endeavor to get the
farmers to put up these fences, rath-
er than waste their time and money
on other devices that have not proved
SO effective.
