Sept. 16, 1935—
6 mi. W Lakeview, Lake Co., Ore (2)
Set 50 mouse traps and 10 gopher
traps 6 mi. W Lakeview; in alkali
flat amid sagebrush and a salt
grass. Many Microtus runs noted,
especially at the edge of the flat,
which joined an alfalfa field.
Sept. 17, 1935—
Caught in traps—6 Microtus, 1
Lagurus, 2 Perithodoutomys. It may
be that the nights are too cool for
maximum activity of the mice. From
the sign, I would have assumed that
there were more mice present than
is indicated by the trapping record.
$704 Lagurus:
105-19-17-9
$705 Microtus
170-37-18-14
