Show Poison for Prairie Dogs. The Colorado experiment station has tried a number of methods of exterminating ex-terminating prairie dogs and ether grain-eating pests and has found the following dope the most satisfactory: To sixteen quarts of corn and other small grain add one ounce of strychnia strych-nia sulphate, one teaspoon of sirup and one quart of boiling water. Stir the grain until all of It is moistened and then distribute in the places desired where poultry or other oth-er stock cannot get at it. The same bait is excellent for pocket gophers, the grain being inserted in the runways. |
