I used strychnlnu In small pieces of parsnip, Just about enough to mako a good mouthful for tho gophor. With a spado an opening Is mado in their run-ways, Into which a bit ot tho poison Is placed and tho i.olo ls thon cavorod. In a day ono can lay out a good deal ot poison and a great many gophers, which aro very destructive In tho orchards,, meadows and all cultivated cul-tivated Holds. |
