MOLE TRAP, THE IMPROVED ISBELL 



It is acknowledged by all who have given it a trial as the 

 best trap ever invented for catching and destroying the 

 underground mole. When properly set, it never allows 

 the mole to escape, and no skill is required in setting it. 

 The "Improved" Isbell Mole Trap is made of the best an- 

 nealed iron, so that it will wear for years and never shat- 

 ter, as other mole traps do, they being made of common 

 cheap cast-iron. . 



We have not the space, neither is it necessary, to prmt 

 the hundreds of testimonials which we have received from 

 all parts regarding this trap. 



Directions for Setting : Brush the dirt off the top 

 of the mole track, then stick the two main prongs into the 

 ground astride of it, so that the wooden pin will be about 

 1% inches from the bottom of the run. Then brush the 

 dirt back again in its original position (as near as possible), 

 pull up the handle at the top and adjust the catch. §2.00.
