Everybody should get into the
grasshOpper fight now. Now is the
time. The hay is about all stacked.
and the h0ppers are large enough
to be very active.
This fight will require the united
support of every person in this
section IL it is to be the success we
hope for. One or two men cannot
make it 60. Farmers. it is your in
terests that are involved. Can we
exterminate the grasshOppers here?
1t has been done in other places
and we should Ut least be able to
control it here.
The pest districts have been form
ed. and notices are being gotten out
to rid this section of grasshOpers.
Do not wait to get q notice. but ev-
erybOdy concentrate their efforts
on the grasshOppers for the next
week or SO, and let's get 1t over
with.
There is no question as to the ef.
fectiveness of the work where it is
done right. Garry on this fight con-
stantly and persistently; do it
thoroughly, and results are forth
coming. A man can't get q little
sack of dope and expect 1t to kill all
the vermin ON q quarter-sectiOn
Make several applications four or
five days apart. Spread it broad
est; scatter in late afternoon or
evening. 1t may take several hun
dred pounds or half ton, to clean
up q ranch. These grasshOppers
must be fed. Lets feed them poison
and not crops.
While we are fighting grasshOp-
pers, we can also rid the fields of
the alfalfa army worm, or variegat
ed cut worm. The same material will
do for both. When the worms are
all poisoned, give the fields q good
renOvating with q harrow or reno
vatOr, and then irrigate.
So everybody should get busy
now. Sure we are all very busy but
take time to get this work DONE
and do it right.

Linen Favored For Young Folks Now
Since the always beloved linens have
come back to general use, after an
absence during wartime when they
were corralled for government pur-
poses. many charming linen costumes
for children have appeared In the
shops. Mothers always like this ma
terial for little peoples wear because
its excellent washing and wearing
qualities and some of the linen frocks
this season are particularly good look
ing. For girls of ten to thirteen there
are belted dresses of green or blue
linen, made quite simply and trimmed
with separate collars and cuffs of sheer
lawn or organdy. For small tots there
are enchanting frocks of pale pink,
pale yellow. and apple green linen
with shocking across the shoulders
and a deep hem falling short of the
edge of full bloomers. A delightful
little model is the one pictured. made
of rose pink linen with a lacing of
black grosgrain ribbon below the
white linen Buster Brown collar. The
frock is gathered over two cords to a
shallow shoulder-yoke at back and |
front and sets out smartly over the |
slightly longer bloomers-also OF pink |
linen. What the small girl specially .
likes about this play frock is the fact
