Koford 122 Cynomys ludovicianus May 22, 1955 Medora, S. Dak. Lunnaurs). We saw 2 c.l. in Knudson town for that inspection. Currently, then, few or no deer dogs in towns in Knudson Creek, Paddock creek (down at least), Lauter draw, Johnson Platteau. Caudon spiziziati have hit there? || Burner Johnson, employee, said that he noticed diminution in Lauter draw colony about Sept. of last year. || Jim Cole & I visited East Entrance town, in Dec. 28. This is a small town that has changed little in size since 1947. About 5 acres. Carex, Opuntia, Agrop. smithii, art. frig., Sphacelus present, & as well as Pseudobas. Artemisia brandeae 8- "lay cut down at some sites. Some partial old lunnaurs into edges thicker white- green downlope. Upslope colony has several holes above road, + some fresh droppings + cuttings than, but little evi- dence of much use of lunnaurs. Art. Potentilla louse close cut. Cortus not eaten. Many badger diggings. Cole says bison have been seen here (checking station nearby), + probably little grazing by cattle or for from water. Some Allium. Above road many will developed shoots long leafed sage, so probably relatively little C.l. presence. Art. frig. taller than on lower part town. One lunnaur under edge of asplott at edge road. A report of Neil J. Reid (June 1953) says this colony as a small island of clay loam. || We visited the Boons town, Dec. 29 & 30. Reid (June 1953) said this large, but of small population, located on silt loam. He said large patches Salsola + many denugated areas. On standard agricultural lands. Heavy grazing (Reid). We saw many C.l. here. Around it, their growth Agrop. smithii. In center, much Sphacelus, 4 acres of Eriogonum, Plantago pusilla & dandelion-like forb (as on Big Platteau). Gentle slope to W. This
