"Ranchers are concerned about their forage and cereal grain crops being converted into squirrel meat instead of beef," said B.J. Verts, Oregon State University wildlife ecologist. As a result, two OSU Agricultural Experiment Sta tion projects one to evaluate various control techniques, and another to learn more about the squirrel are get ting under way under the direction of Verts. The culpris is Belding's ground squirrel. It ranges over most of Oregon east of the Cascade Mountains and prefers moist areas at lower altitudes than preferred by most other ground squirrel species, thereby coming into conflict with agriculture. "The ground squirrel pop ulation appears to be in creasing and is prompting increased complaints from ranchers," said Verts. The rodents are active in the spring and summer, waking up with huge appetites after several months of dormancy. "Bus Service Bid," "Anti Freeze Bid," or "Contract Bus Run Bid." DR.

Howell suggests that fire prevention safeguards be made by all farmers: Get rid of dead grass and weeds in a 10-foot area around all buildings: Plow fire breaks around all fields and divide larger fields with fire breaks; Put hay stacks far apart and away from buildings; Have water cans and sacks on combines and in buildings. Each year the county and the county extension office places equipment in strategic locations to assist farmers in fighting fires. They come out of dormancy from about Feb. 1 to April 1, depending on altitude, breed almost immediately, and pro duce eight or nine offspring after a short gestation period. The young must reach adult size and store enough energy for the coming dormant period by mid-July or mid-August. "They are really eating machines during their five months or so of activity, damaging forage and small grain crops," said Verts. Recommended controls, principally poisoned baits have not been effective, he added.
