USE POISONED
GRAIN TO KILL
PRAIRIE DOGS
—j
PHOENIX, Ariz., April 25 Qy Asso
ciated Press).—One million ;cres in
six counties of Arizona .'will be
sprinkled with carloads of poisoned
grain this month, and is expected
that 15,000,000 prairie dogs will be
wiped out as the result of th;s deadly
seeding. This is the announcement
^ made here by D. A. Gilchijst of the
United States biological survey, and
rodent pest inspector foil Arizona.
Gilchrist added that 1000 fa-mers will
take part in the campaign Sgainst the
pests in the counties of Afcache, Na
vajo, Coconino, Yapapai, (/chise and
Graham. J
Thousands of dollar^-* worth of
crops and valuable forf£e on the cat
tle ranges are destroyed annually by
the prairie dogs, Gilcft-jst stated, and
they propagate so rapidly it is neces
sary to wage constail warfare against
them. Thousands |re being kilied
daily by the state tld federal work
ers, but the prairif^logs continue to
grow in number, Ho a tremendous ef
| fort has been Wanned for this month
j to cut them of| it is estimated that
the poisoned g|Un will do away with
95 per cent <h those on the acreage
treated.
Statistics show that on an average
there a»e 15 prairie dogs to an acre.
Each gne usually has from three to
five lurrows. A colony of the pest
can ruin a field completely in a short
tiipe.
The success of the work so far,
Gilchrist said, has been due to the
united efforts of the livestock and
farmers’ association, county agricul
tural agents, United States forestry
service officials and agents and offi
cials of the federal and state biolog
ical survey bureaus.
FIRST DOLHPiN FOUND
I IN PACIFIC OCEAN
SANTA BARBARA, April 25 (by
Associated Press). — A dolphin
brought here recently is said by old
fishermen of the port to be the first
true dolphin they are aware of every
found in the Pacific ocean. Its natural
habitat is the Atlantic, which is much
colder than the waters of the Pacific.
This specimen was shot by Captain
I. Eaton and Captain A. Gozzini while
they were sailing between San Miguel
and San Nicholas islands, off the
Southern California coast. It was
about six feet long and nearly black
with the exception of a belting of
white. It will be preserved by a taxi
dermist.
THIS BIRD KNOWS NOT
WHEREOF HE SPEAKS
“Valdez could get all the trade of
this section if it would provide a safe j
place for our boats,” writes a down* I
sound correspondent to The Miner I
this week. Continuing he says: “I j
would perfer trading in your city, as I
my neighbors, as your prices are from I
20 to 30 per cent lower on the same I
goods than Cordova prices; but I can- I
not come to a town where I am com
pelled to watch my boat to keep her
from being jammed into a small
wharf by a multitude of others. I have
just returned from Cordova, where I
purchased a large stock of supplies,
all of which I could have saved money
on in Valdez. Can’t you remedy this *
trouble by having your people pro
vide a place for the small boats?”
The writer of the above letter, who
asked that his name be withheld from
publication, voices the complaint of
every boat-owner from Port Wells to
Tatitlek. They prefer to trade in
Valdez, but can find no docking
facilities for the boats. When the
council matures its plans under con
sideration for a new dock for small
boats the city will draw practically
all the down-sound trade, chiefly be
cause our merchants carry larger
stocks and undersell their Cordova
competitors.—Valdez Miner.
Captain George A. Green and Mrs.
Katherine J. Sholseth, of Fairbanks,
were recently married by Father
Munroe. Thl groom iB well known in
the Interior and is considered as one
of the best river captains that ever
navigated the Yukon and Tanana
rivers. He numbers his friends by the
hundreds, all of whom will wish the
happy mariner a pleasant vQyage on
the sea of matrimony. The bride is
well known in Fairbanks and also in
Nenana, at which place she has re
dded for the past several months.
