Macabee gopher traps in fresh
burrows in vacant lots in the
1200 block of Columbia Ave. Then
drove east on 4th St. to end
7mi. E Ontario, 1050 ft., San Bernardino

mousetraps on sand dune area
covered with low brush - Artemisia
Californica, Salsola Kali (dead),
Rhus trilobata, some green Hordeum
sp. and a few coyote gourds -
Cucurbita foetidissima.
This afternoon I had a visit
from two fellows from Corona who
have done some mounting of birds
and animals but want to know
the scientific method of skins.
I loaned them some traps and
they are going to try to get me some
specimens from their region,
