At the Agricultural Commissioner's Office in Bakersfield
I was told that Kern County contributes to a fund that is
used by U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in Predator Control -
4 fulltime trappers are on hand year around, one at
Cantil, one at Arvin, one at Taft and one at Lost Hills.
The lady at the front desk in Agricultural Commissioner's
Office said squirrel poisoning was still going on in the
Bear Mountain area. This lady also said she would see
the Commissioner, Mr. Seldon Broley, and if only by them she
would mail me the Poundsage of 1080 Heated Poison Put out
in Kern County during the first two years Compound 1080 -
