STATE WILL TEST
WATER FROM WELLS
There have been several re-
quests recently for information
on testing water for purity.
This is a good sign as it indi-
Gates a concern about the wat
er supplies New wells or wells
not tightly cased should have
the water tested. The Montana

ena will test the water free If
it is sent in q sterile bottle.
These may be obtained by
writing to the Board Of Health.
When available, a small supply
of sterile bottles are kept on
hand at the extension office.
It is important to follow the
directions enclosed with the
bottle as improperly drawn
water will result in an mac
curate test. The chief reason
for testing for water purity Is
to determine the presence OF
bacteria indicating that typhoid
| germs could enter the water
supply. Locating the water sup

Of contamination and having
the well tightly cased are the
best means of insuring a pure
water supply. Never use water

CONDITIONS GOOD o
BATTING PRAIRIE DOGS

With the return Of clear
warm weather, conditions will
again be ideal for batting prair-
lie dogs on infested range land.
Just prior to the recent rainy
period, ranchers were report
ing excellent kills. This exper-
fence is consistent with the
recommendation that prairie
dogs be baited any time dur
ing the summer when weather
is clear. It IS during this time
prairie dogs do most of their
feeding Abundant green grass
has no effect on the prairie
dogs appetite for poison
ed grain as these rodents are
deciding every day and at such
times are most apt to consume
bait when other feed is scarce
or weather conditions are I'M
favorable for feeding. A tea
spoonful of kernels dropped In
scattered fashion outside each
burrow is usually sufficient to
get good results.
An ample supply Of ready
mixed bait Is now on hand
and even large orders can be
promptly filled. Ranchers who
want bait should call at the
county agents office to make
their purchases.
