While a considerable , amount of poisoned grain has been used tills spring, some of the farm ers stnte that they have found tho li use of toplson gas much more effec tive at this season of he year than tho poisoned grain. With the ground still wet the gas, when once put into one of the burrows, puts an end to all rodent life In tbat place. ,:-Wlth an abundance of greon feed at 'this time the squirrels do not take readily to the poisoned grain. When Jhe first of the young commence to appeur, seems to be the best time In which to secure bes results In poisoning.
