When properly set, a scissor-
jaw type trap is one of the most
effective for catching the western
mole. This trap takes the animal
without damaging its pelt, and
the set trap is safe from children
and livestock.
Directions for use of the scis
sor-jaw trap are given in Exter.-
sien Bulletin No. 629, titled ‘Con
trolling Rodents and Other Small
Animal Pests in Oregon.” Copies
are available at county extension
offices, says Walrod.
A mound of soil emerging from
a lawn, garden, or pasture is s
sign that a mole is searching for
food. The mole's main diet is
worms and insects, His normal
home paths are in holes 8 to 10
inches underground. However,
moles forage for their food in
looser soil, especially in flower
beds, gardens, or well-managed
pastures.
The young are usually born in
April and May, and this is the
time when most damage from
moles appears. It’s also the tin-
when a mole trap can be mos
effective in preventing mole dam-
age.
Pelts can be sold to any major
furn dealer. The dense black fur
is used for various fur garment

ES, the Yankee horse-traders did know values, so much so. in fact, that they
have become symbolic of shrewdness and judgment. Well, those days are pretty
much gone now. but the farmer of today knows a real value just as well as his horse-
trading forefathers.

Take a look at the modern farm and you’ll see what I mean. Everywhere,
electricity, the greatest value of all time, has replaced dozens of time-consuming,
back-breaking chores and daily jobs. Farmers, recognizing this value, have let elec

barn, in the yard.
