disappointment Felt that Farmers
Failed to Participate in Work
of DISCRIMINATING Pests

The Greenhead Club assembled
according to arrangement last Sun
day morning on Maine street, and
left in numerous cars for the Island
District to wage war on the Jack
Rabbit that has been the source of
heavy losses to the farmers through
out the valley.
The offensive" was in the vicinity
of the Bartlett and Jarvis ranches
where these pests have been numer-
Gus.
The result of the days drive was
the killing of over 400 rabbits which
were shipped to San Francisco, the
proceeds to be contributed to the
Red Cross.
Members of the club expressed
keen disappointment in the failure
of any of the farmers to join in the
movement that meant so much in a
peeuniary way to them, as it was the
belief of the the club that with a
larger force of men 1000 of these
crop destroyers could have been
killed.
c. w. Renfro and Joe Jarvis join
ed the party early in the day and
fought the battle to its close.
Charles Cress was awarded the
prize for highest score, he having 33
notches in his gun for the days
shoot, and to T. H. Depp fell the sec
ond prize his number of good rab-
bits being 81.
The Greenhead Club did its part
nobly and deserves the thanks of the
community for the unselfish spirit
which prompted this movement so
productive of benefit to the farmers
and of such material aid to our boys
