RANCH WHOLESALE
By WILBUR KKII.
Farmers and land owners in
the Klamath Basin arc again faced
with a rodent problem. Almost
every year the ground squirrels
become a problem in several
areas Harold Schieferstein. coun
ty weed and rodent control su
pervisor, reports that tin?
ground squirrels arc causing se
rious damage lo many of the crops
in die area. The squirrel feeds
on grasses as well as on the ma
tttre grains and seeds. Early in
the season upon first emerging
from hibernation they will feed
on any food available but they
soon change their diet to green
grass, grain shoots and alfalfa
planls. In May and June their
diet again changes to grain ker
nels as well as the grasses. Dur
ing this time poisoning is most
ellcctivc.
CVop losses can be very high
and in some cases fields can be
completely lost because of dam
age. One squirrel in a season Willi
eat the same amount of loon that a i
cow consumes in a day. Certain!
fields here have losses of at least
one-half of the crop per year.
Ground squirrels can be con
trolled by poisoning. Whole oats
Ireated with a special formula us
ing strychnine as the poisoning
agent has been used effectively
Tests Asked
If Oregon cattlemen want their
rattle to move into the state of
Washinglon more freely Oregon
uill have to reactivate the test
ing for brucellosis of all eligible
cattle going hack to the farm or
Iced lots from auction yards.
This was emphasized at a recent
meeting at liellingham, Wash., of
state-federal regulatory personnel
of Oregon and Washington and
representatives of the cattlemen's
associations of both stales.
At prevnt Oregon cattle enter
ing Washington are required to
have been tested for brucellosis
w ithin the last 30 days before en
try. To meet the stringent require
ments for testing that Washington
has imposed upon her own cattle
and eliminate the testing now re
quired of Oregon cattle going Into
Washington. Oregon will have to
step-up its brucellosis eradication
program and have a more com
plete record on individual herds.
for many years. Used properly the
bait is not only effective but safe
for use around domestic animals.
Schieferstein points out that a
teaspoon of the bait scattered on i
one side of the burrow is suf-1
ficient for each hole. The best
results are obtained when the bait
is not inserted in die burrow it
self, as squirrels won't stop w hen
emerging from the burrow. Bait
should never be put in piles be
cause it is wasteful as well as
dangerous to livestock. ;
Poultry, pheasants and quail can
tolerate relatively large doses of
strychnine, and they often refuse
lo take more than a few kernels
of the bait. However, ducks, geese
and doves are very susceptible lo
the bait and exlremc care is need
ed where these birds range.
Poisoned bait prepared by the
county agent's office is available
at several feed stores through
out the county as well as at the
extension office localcd on the sec-t
ond floor of the Post Office Huikl-inq.

Quack grass fs the Number 1 weed pest in the Klamath Basfn.
And -CYTROL Amitrole-T is the Number 1 quack grass killer
recommended by authorities.
It has consistently given effective control where other materials
have failed.
CYTROL sprayed on the foliage gets into quack grass and other
tough perennials through the leaves and moves throughout the entire
plant, down to the deepest roots. That's why it kills leaves, stems,
roots and all.
It licks the toughest weed problems because it produces thoroughly
dead weeds-does not merely suppress-and thus prevents re-growth,
