the dray business in American Falls,

Not Governments Fault.

not the governments fault either.
In conclusion l want to say that our
patriotism should prompt US 10 make
every possible endeavOr to do what
we can for the government and lessen
its present tremendous responsible
ties. It is impossible for the govern
ment to make regulations that will
uniformly cover the situation in every
part Of the country and where some
individual hardships are worked l
feel that, under the circumstances. we
should make the best of them.
The winning of this war is a big
job and none Of US can do too much
as our part Of the responsibility for
winning it. Yours very truly.

Gleanings by the Pilgrim In His
Wanderings Here and There.

The first evidence of squirrels com
ing up from their den to see what's
doing on top was noticed on March 4
on the side Of the road just south of
Aberdeen. 1t is up to the farmers to
meet the rodents with poison as soon
as they appear. Neglect Of that nee
essary work will mean millions of
squirrels during the spring and sum
mer, and thousands of dollars lost in
crops destroyed by them. One of the
most effective poison lotions for the
marauders is the following:
l ounce or tablespoonful ~strychnine.
l IL tablespoons of soda.
/ IL teaspoons of sugar.
Dissolve this mixture in a gallon Of
water and boil in a vessel holding more
than a gallon, so there will be a full
gallon of the poison lotion after it is
boiled. Then take two OF three cups
OF germade and make a mixture Of the
whole. not too thick. Early in the NOR
ming, before the squirrels are out.
place a quarter teaspOonful before
each squirrel hole. When the rodent
energies it will eat some of the poison
and die almost Immediately. Personal
observation shows that the squirrel
lives less than three minutes after
partaking of the potion. Even after
the mixture has dried the squirrels
will eat it and die.

Herman Giesbrecht is farming an
S0-acre irrigated tract two and one
half miles south of Aberdeen and each
year has a considerable acreage in SUI
gar beets. Last year help was ex-
tremely scarce around Aberdeen and
as it happened the work of thinning
and hoeing the beets conflicted with
the time needed in the alfalfa fields.
The going rate for thinning and hoeing
an acre of sugar beets was 81, but the
Mexicans he employed knew we'll that
the rancher was hard pressed for help
and they charged him 50 an acre. Five
OF the greasers went to work and hoed
and thinned an acre each and at the
end of the day drew S45 for the days
work. In their own sweet-scented ma
tive land the same fellows would have
been overjoyed to get about 80 cents
for a days work. Indications are that
a scarcity of labor will exist the COM
ing summer and that the state or fed
eral government will have to intervene
to prevent such exorbitant wages for
growing and cultivating the necessi-
ties of life.

growing on it have the strength Of a

That each parcel Of land on irri-
gated ranches has its particular
individuality is a we'll established fact.
and this condition is giving many
farmers here food for serious thought.
In many cases the sons Of ranchers
have been attending to the irrigation
of the fields for a number of years and
have become acquainted with the va
carries Of each particular part Of the
ranch. To break in a new man to this
work often times entails a serious re-
duction in the yields of the crops. A
large number of the young irrigators
are subject to the draft and if called
into the army their places will have to
be filled by novices in the fine art of
irrigating, and here is where the food
for thought comes in.
