 He said: As Secretary of War know the great value of the sup port which has been given by the American Legion to our Nationa! Defense and desires for peace. You nevertheless realize we must not jeopardize our heritage of liberty during our search for the panacea for war. Therefore. you will wish to know that your efforts have not been misdirected.

POISON GOPHERS NOW
SAYS COUNTY AGENT

Following the rather prolonged rain
which we have just had, it should be
comparatively easy to locate pocket
gopher runs and note their activity
IN tield or orchard. 1t is at this time
of the year that pocket gophers are
more active. They are now gathering
food stores to be cached for winter
During this period, they are very
active in making new runways and
may be found almost anywhere poe.
ket gophers are at all plentiful.
Poisoning the pocket gophers is the
most efficient method OF getting ric
ct them and now is the best time tc
do this.
The first thing one needs to do
is to prepare the bats. Sweet potatoes
imataly "a inch square and an incl
long make excellent bats for poison.
ing. If over this, mixture of strych.
nine and saccharine composed OF
eight parts alkaloid strychnine ane
one part of caccllarine is sprinklec
so as to give it light coat, this sz1at-
erial makes fine bats. Put a tfir
layer of this into the bottom of {
bucket and sprnkled with the above
mixture, then another layer put in
and again sprinkled, and this contin
ued until enough bats are prepared
for the area to be poisoned.
It is better not to prepare bats more
than few hours in advance of tins
time they are to be distributed.
In locating runs to distribute tn.
bats, if one will check carefully the
mounds of dirt thrown up, one will
find that the dirt has been thrown
cut from one direction. A pocket
gopher digs his chimney" approx
imately eight or nine inches long from
the main run to the surface. By
noticing carefully the construction Of
the mound, one can tell quickly or
which side of the mound the rur
will be found. A prod made of an ole
broom handle, sharpened rather blunt
ly and pushed down about six inche:
from where the last dirt, has beer
thrown out, will usually locate the
run. Bait should always be placed
in the main runway. When this rur
has been found, two or three pieces
oI DalI CdH De OIOppSuf III anu CIlS
hole covered up. If one wishes tt
check the activity of gophers, they
may examine the runway where thess
openings have been made occasionally
The County Agent has prepared
sitter cans with the proper mixture
Of strychnine and sacctarine for any.
one wishing to use this material ane
method of poisoning gophers.
The men Of the Bureau Of Biolog-
ical Survey, were scheduled in here
early in October, but gophers were SC
inactive at that time that the program
YVES postponed. and ut is hoped tina,
they will be able, to get in again for
some demonstration meetings before
the season gets too late.
