Night. There was a pair of them
calling back & forth with their coco-co-
coco- and a low chuckling somewhat
like a rat gnawing dry leaves. The
woodrats were prowling and gnawing
all thru our camp trying to get
in the grub. I saw a yellow throx
the only bird which Mrs. Samt
did not see today. He has the
list of the others. The first steel
set is set 20 yds from road near
willows & cottonwoods cr baited with
corn. The second is baited with
apronmyssus and a towheel and
is set by a trail in flat
sandy silty country which
has been cleared and is now
overgrown with low brush.
