According to U. S. Fish and Wildlife rodent experts, jjophers front teeth Rrow more than 46 Inches a year. This can lead to an Exedrln slzed headache, es pecially If the teeth crow into the gophers' skull. Instinctively, then, the bur rowlnc creatures avoid head aches by chewing on the most convenient hard substance to wear clown their teeth. And of tentimes, underground telephone cables are close at hand. In fact, dental health-minded gophers have acquired such a taste for cable, that the Bell Svsiem now uses as much as 1,300 tons of steel a year to shield underground cables west of the Mississippi. In Oregon. Pacific Northwest Bell cable exi-rts point out. there are 14 different species of gophers. The most troublesome of all Is the little "pocket" go pher, who burrows around to a depth of 30 inches under the sur- '''scientists at BeU Telephone Laboratories sav steel armor for cable is necessary because go phers chew through most plas tic materials, and even softer metals like lead and aluminum.
