    I've suspected for a while that something was happening in the garden that I couldn't put my finger on. Yesterday I noticed the leaves to my soybeans were gone - just the stems have been left. They look like little green sticks set about six inches apart!

    I did some research and have decided I must have voles (field mice).

    What I need now are owls, snakes and perhaps a neighboring cat!

    Anyone have ideas as to how I can persuade these critters to go back to whence they came?

    Before I purchased my little dog, Chloe, I had considered a Jack Russel - but then someone pointed out that they are "diggers." A Jack Russell looks rather good right now. I've tried telling Chloe there must be some J.R. in her somewhere - go get them voles!
