MANAGE FROM
RABBITS WORST
m ALL HISTORY
AGENT Advises Campaign of
Batting as Cheapest and Most
Effective Remedy; Will Help
on Drives

Racause of the very serious jack
..bb;t situation the County Extern
ION office has received many COM
GIANTS Of farmers who, in large mea-
srre contend that the Biological Sur
,sv hunters in denning coyotes were
,smoying q natural enemy Of the rab-
hts. With the result Of damage to crop
.nd range. Mr.. Skuse, agricultural
extension agent, took the matter up
Nth Mr.. John Finley, assistant dis
triet agent, whose territory is Central
washington. Mr.. Finley's letter COW
srs the subject 80 completely that it
4 felt that every farmer whose crops,
uastures or ranges have been injured
because Of the jackrabbits will be in
arrested to read it. The letter fol-
lows:
The rabbit situation is probably the
worst there has ever been in the
state. However, ! am positive that
controlling coyotes has had very lit
lie II anything to do with this condi-
ton. To save coyotes to kill jackrab-
bits would be just as logical as plant
ing Jim Hill mustard to control the
Russian thistle. The black-tailed jack
rabbits made their entrance to the
territory west of the Columbia riv-
er during the winter of 1918-1919.
There were probably not more than
few hundred that crossed the river on
the ice in the heart of the worst coy
ote country in the state. Had coyotes
been factor in their control these
rabbits should have been killed even
before they reached their first breed
ing season. However, living almost
exclusively in coyote territory, they
increased rapidly for the first ten
years, at which time they were doing
considerable damage from the south
ern borders of the state to as far
north as Badger Pocket in Kittitas
county. During the winter of 1925
1929 we conducted very systematic
poison campaign and most Of the raD-
bits that we did not kill with the poi
son died from diseas the next spring,
80 thus agan the population was re-
dueed to point, where, if the coyotes
had been an important factor they
could have handled the situation.
A year ago this past winter the
funds for the predatory animal work
were exhausted with the result that
there were no coyotes taken from
January until after the first of July
last year. In spite of this the rab-
bits continued to increase. It has been
my personal observation that coyotes
Will not eat black-tail jacks if other
food is available, and am absolutely
confident that more jackrabbits can
be killed with Is cents worth of poi
son that any coyote will take in his
natural lifetime.
Referring to incubation for con-
rol measures / can state that there
never has been a virus produced that
mas given any positive results at all.
Because of the fact that man is sus-
eeptlble to all diseases caused by the
Hfuses now on the market, it is q
certainty that the government will
make no attempt to encourage their
use until such time as something that

covered. Most of the viruses on the
