(CP) — Gopher tails and skunk ears are still a hot commodity in this rural southwestern Man- fitoba municipality and. 78- year-old George Reid stalks them relentlessly. On sunny summer days, Reid puts on his Stetson hat, loads a rifle into his car and heads for country roadsides for an afternoon's hunting. Reid is a patron to an age-old form of municipal pest control. At one time, he was the undisputed champion gopher hunter of Elgin when he clobbered 1,033 of the cre- atures in 1927. “In those days we had nothing,” Reid said. “We used to have quite a time with gophers.” The i lity of White with old-t fetish for digging holes in roads and munehing on ten- der, young crops, “They ean eat up quite a bit-of grain in the headlands and pasture,” said John Stil- well, Whitewater municipal secretary treasurer. ‘The municipality instituted bounties as an alternative to poison, which could take a toll on family pets and chil dren. Stilwell said the bounties gave children a chance to make a dollar, while helping control what was ‘a serious rodent problem. INCOME SOURCE During the '30s, it became a source of income for everyone, as drought-like conditions and grasshoppers water pays cash for proof that its pests are gone. It's 10 cents for a gopher tail, $3 for a pair of black and white skunk ears. Gophers and skunks cur- rently top the most-wanted list but at one time crow's eggs and legs were in de- mand as well. The pests aren't out in quite the numbers they were in the 1930s, when they pra- ctically constituted a plague, but farmers in southwestern Manitoba continue to be bothered by critters with a ry ‘ “It was a fair means of putting groceries on the ta ble,” Stilwell said. “It was that little bit extra. Local legend has it that at least one family found enough unlucky gophers to pay the down payment on their farm. “Farmland wasn't worth much in the '30s,” Stilwell explained. Although council hasn't increased the bounties on gophers since the 1950s, Stilwell continues to pay out about 2,000 dimes a year to both adults and children.

She does all her own laundry. Half of the women who come to spend up to six months at the house are referred by hospi and the other half are women who are self-referred or referred by another women's hostel, Nellie’s. The group home provides maximum support for its residents. It is staffed 24 hours a day so there is always someone to help, if help is needed, but otherwise residents are free to spend their time as they wish. dn Milligan, a member of the collective that runs the house, says the people who work there try to foster a co-operative spirit among staff and residents. The main goal of the women working at the house is to help the residents recover lost skills and make them feel they are ina non-judgmental, supportive situation, she says. , Btilwell is not very in- sistent about counting each customer's offering, but he suspects some of the tails have been imported from other municipalities. accept their word for it.” Reid expects to bag 200 tails this year. As for. skunks, he has constructed a special trap with which he guar- antees an odorless catch. The boynty fees barely pay for Reid's pellets and rifle shells but it is a nostalgic hobby for the retired ele- - vator agent. He is part of a dying breed, as few young people seem in. terested in carrying on the effort. “Shooting them is not very profitable — you have got to hit every time,” Stilwell said. “There's not as many chil dren out there trapping them as there was..In this day and age, they like the folding money too, it seems.” wa DENNIS BEDIN A.M.
