KILL THE WOODCHUCKS Woodchuck holes are a great nuis- ance. They may cause a horse to break a leg, while the mounds may break the cutting bar of a mower or at least blunt the knives. This is the time to get rid of the pests. Search out all the holes and plug up all exits. Into the entrance either put calcium cyanide or else use the exhaust of an automobile. To use the automobile attach a pipe and run the engine for twenty minutes, then plug up the hole and go to the next burrow. In the case of cyanide also the burrow must be carefully closed, preferably with damp earth. When using both these methods care must be taken. Be sure no cyanide is left-around where animals or children can get it. Keep away from the deadly gas coming out of the car ex- haust.
