2 mi. W Smith Creek Cave, Mt. Thovish, White Pine Co., Nevada Lee Arnold 1937 Itinerary June 13 spent the night at the Parker Ranch inasmuch as it was too late for me to continue home. The following morning Mr. Parker and I went out to his field of newly planted grain around which he had scattered poisoned barley (strychnine) yesterday. I was interested in the results of the poisoning. The facts I gathered are not complete because of the possibility of the mice getting down their holes to die and the fact that coyotes and ravens had been preying on the dead animals. We found 18 Dipodomys killed by poison. (14 ♀ + 9 ♂). These were all of the ordii group — that is those which we have classed as ordii on this trip. They were all found in open, soft silty soil where most of the brush was missing because of previous cultivation. The only other animals that seemed to be affected by poison were Mourning Doves. I picked up two of these birds which had apparently just died and observed the scattered remains of two others that had probably died the day before and been eaten during the night. We shot four Jack Rabbits (1 Ad. ♂; 1 Ad ♀; 2 Imm. ♂). I observed two Western Nighthawks at 10:45 A.M.
