HOW GRANITE COUNTY PUTS
GOPHER OUT OF BUSINESS

pher pest. While the tax levy may
be unpopular it is in fact the cheap.
est method of handling the matter.
The total assessment for Carbon
county for the present year was 5000,
a sum which is quite insignificant
when distributed over all the treated
land in the county. In places where
gopher control is left to the individ-
ual it frequently happens that a
farmer will distribute poison on his
land while his neighbor fails to do
so. AS a result the farmer who does
the poisoning is rewarded by having
the gophers from his neighbours place
re-infest his land, meaning a dupli-
cation of expense and effort the fol-
lowing year. Thus by the levy meth
cd, whereby all share in the expense
and adjoining farms comprising the
agricultural lands are poisoned,
much of the possibility of reinfesta-
ton is eliminated and the expense is
considerably less.

Rodent Control Agent for Montana
.I"HE PROBLEM of successfully
financing the gopher poisoning
= work Of a county is one that has
apparently been solved in a most sat-
isfactory name by Granite county,
by the assessment of a special levy
on land" All land in the county
must pay it's share of the costs of the
gopher poisoning campaign and the
amounts r apportioned according
to the amount of property owned.
In return the amount of gopher poi
son received for the county is appor-
toned to the land owners in pro-
portion to the amount of land. The
fact that each pays In proportion to
the amount of land and that the ass
essment is made regardless of whe-
ther the land owner uses the poison
or not, brings about a general desire
for participation In the gopher con-
troll work.
The county commissioners and
other county officials take care of
such matters as assessments, appor-
tionment of the charges, the securing
and mixing of the poison bait and
this necessarily simp1ifies and stand
ardizes the work. When all details
have been arranged for and the poi
son is ready for distribution all the
farmers have to do is to come in, get
their share of the bait and to spread
it on their lands.
While this system hinger upon
that very unpopular thing known as
a tax levy for its success, yet 1t is
the only effective and practical
means Of controlling the go

ATHENS, Nov. "a That more

the advent of the pest irto Georgia,
was the statement made by j. Phi!
Campbell, director of extension
work of the State College of Agri-
culture, as the result of an ines
tigation made in all sections of the
state recently. ea
'"The cold wave of the past few
days." MIR. Campbell said, ''has
driven the weevils into winter quar-
ters land nothing can be done now
to prevent the greatest emergence

prepared to carry on tGe fight next
spring.
Investigation shows" continued
Mr. Campbell, that Georgia farm
'ers purchased about fifteen mil
lion pounds of calcium arsenate
last year, and used about ten nib
lion pounds. Next year it is very
probable that all the robson that
can be secured will be needed, and
at least thirty million pounds should
be inland when the crop is plant
ed.
Farmers are facing one of the
greatest crisis in the history, and
unless due heed of the situation ii
taken and preparations made, a
greater disaster than has been
known in many years Is5certain to
be the result Director Campbell
added.
1t is also stated by Director Camp
