"Sure-Catch"

check these farm robbers, but only recently has 
a trap been brought out that will really get a 
pocket gopher nine times out of ten. This trap 
is so simple and effective that the manufac¬ 
turers back it with an unlimited guarantee to 
do the work, or you return the trap and get 
your money back. 
The “Sure-Catch” Trap is a little over 9 
inches long. Is easy to set—perfectly harmless 
to handle and fits into the gopher hole, half 
length. The trap is not covered and the gopher 
from within trips the trigger as he attempts to 
cover up the hole. Boys and girls make good 
money trapping pocket gophers. Price, with 
full instructions—75c each, 6 for $3.95, prepaid. 
Nash Mole Trap 
Recommended by U. S. Biological Survey, Wash., 
D. C. The Only Trap That Always Catches the 
Mole in All Kinds of Ground When Properly Set. 
Both the 
choker wires 
are made of a 
single piece of 
metal, bent to 
desired form, 
so that they are 
held perfectly 
in place. 
Springs are 
made of one 
piece of best 
Bessemer spring 
steel. Clods or 
stones cannot 
prevent perfect 
operation. This 
trap catches 
the mole when it comes from either direction, 
the pan being located between the two choker 
loops which are sufficiently far apart so the 
mole in passing will spring the trap and he 
caught by the loops around the foreward spades 
or flippers. If properly set, you cannot fail with 
this trap. Fully guaranteed to give satisfaction 
or money back. Full directions for setting, also 
directions for preparing the skins for market, 
supplied with each trap ordered. Weight, 2 lbs. 
2 ozs. Price: $1.50, prepaid.
