Excerpt from Report of Chief of Bureau of Biological Survey
In Oregon pocket-gopher work was confined almost entirely to Polk County, where a clean-up campaign was inaugurated. Very general satisfaction is expressed with the results to date by most of the farmers in the district. Some of them report that there are absolutely no pocket gophers left on their land, and most Of the others report One or two where there were formerly dozens or even hundreds. To complete the work some of this area still needs to be given a third treatment. TO date, first treatment has been completed on acres, and of this acres have been given a second treatment and acres a third. The work will be continued during the fall Of 1923 on a larger scale.
Pocket-gopher campaigns in Idaho include work in eight counties, where more than quarts Of bait were used on about acres and considerable trapping was done in connection with the poisoning Operations.
