KEEP UP THE FIGHT
Stock Poisoned by drasshopper Bait
Due to Carelessness

Stock Poisoned by drasshopper Bait
Due to CareIessness
There have been several reports of
stock being poisoned by poisoned bran
that had been scattered for grasshoppers.
1t was reported that one man lost three
head Of horses. while in another section
nineteen head of cattle were poisoned.
In all cases that we have followed up. it
has always been found to be due to
carelessness or lack of knowledge as to
how to use the poison. One case that
has been frightening many people of that
section Of the state from using the poison.
the person left his corral gate open and
the stock ate from the sack; while in
another, the poison was placed about the
field, one half of a pint in place.
If properly used. there is no danger
whatever of poisoning any stock. unless
it would be poultry. This should be
penned. Scatter the bran as thinly as
possible over the ground. Ten pounds
should treat from two to five acres. The
hoppers eat it better if there is only
flake or two in place. Never should
there be mass larger than gram of
wheat thrown upon the ground.
The farmers in the grasshopper section
should not allow these report to keep
them from using the poison. The use of
the bran is probably the best means you
have to protect this seasons crop.
There is much less danger of loss from
the use Of poison if properly used. than
there is from the hoppers.

Spasmodic attempts have
been made to complete pay
ment for this silver service.
The most recent attempt is Gov
ernor Hanna's effort to secure
contributions from the banks
of the state. A letter has been
mailed to each bank in North
Dakota asking a contribution
of four dollars. Governor Hanna
says that if this is generally res
pended to a sum sufficient to
wipe out the debt will be real
lied and though years late, the
battleship North Dakota will
finally receive its gift from the
state whose name it BEARS
