Where the | animal is not troublesome, biologists | of the U. 8. department of agriculture suggest that it be protected and trap- ped for fur. Even where the animal | has become somewhat of a pest, fis numbers often may be kept down by ! trapping, while the sale of pelts makes | such activities profitable. Often crops may be protected by the erection of wire-mesh fences between them and the marsh or pond where the animals live. Such fences should reach at least | gix Inches beneath the surface of the ground to prevent the muskrat bur- rowing under, Where the animals prove trouble- some bY causing breaks in embank- ments, dams, and in the sides of irri- i gation ditches, probably the most prac. tical remedy is to employ a trapper and hunter to patrol the property both night and day. In narrow waterways barrel traps have proved efficient In catching large numbers of these ani- mals, owners of embankments, dams, etc, may guard against injuries to their property by muskrats, A more general | use of concrete, for example, has | greatly minimized such troubles, gand for the surface of embankments has been found effective, since the ani the hole as fast as they open It Is desirable, as well as thelr protec tion, which is in most cases advisable, is discussed in a recent Farmers’ letin, ment of agriculture, had free n supply lasts by aj ed States department Washington.
