of poisoned jrrain thin month and It it;
expected that 15,000,000 .prairie dojjs
will he wiped out ux the result of this
deadly ut'cdinjr. This is the announce
ment madu here by I). A. Gilchrmt of
the United States biological survey,
,und rodent pest inspector for Arizona.
;ili-hrit added that 1000 farmers will
take part in the campaign auinnt the
.pests in the counties of Apache, Nava
jo, Coconino, Yapapai, Cochise and
itiniham,
I Thousands of dollars' worth of crops
and valuable forage on the cattle
ranges arc destroyed annually by the
pinirie dogs, Gilchrist staled, and
they propagate so rapidly that jt it
i necessary to wage constant warfare
ngainst limn. Thousands arc being
killed daily by the state and federal
workers, but the prairie dugs continue
to jrruw i number, so u Ueiuendou.
ei'l'oi t has been planned for this month
t i cut them off. It is esti muted that
the poisoned grain will do away with
per cent ot those on the acreage,
treated.
Statistics show that on an average
tin-re arc fifteen prairie dogs to tin
m re. Kach one usually has from three
to five burrows. A colony of the pests
can ruin a field completely in a short
linn-.
The success of the work so far, Gil
christ said, has been due to the .united
efforts of the live stock and farmers'
aKsociat iiin, county agricultural
ayents, Tailed States forestry service
