TOO MANY TOLL GATES

Nearly everyone who has studied
or has had experience with the sys-
tenn of distribution in the United
states agrees that it is too cumber-
some and that there are too many
toll gates along the road leading
from the producers to the ultimate
consumers. The farmers have no
quarrel with the professional men.

any one who is rendering any use

necessity for and legitimate functions

BOYS AND GIRLS PIG
CLUB EXCURSION

On Monday, July II, we are going
to hold boys and girls pig club
excursion. We are going to assem-
BILE at Pullman and will visit the
hogs of G. o. Swales and Frank
Bush, also the State College.
The object of this excursion is to
let the pig club members see the
ideal types of swine and to try and
get fixed in their minds the type Of
hog that they want to breed. We
can not make hog raisers of our boys
and girls unless we get them to rea-
lize what real hogs are. They have
got to get some ideal fixed in their
mind.
They will receive instructions in
judging swine and there will be con-
Quoted a swine judging contest at the
same time. A breeder of pure bred
live stock must be a Judge of live
stock.
We hope that every club leader
will plan to take the trip with his pig
club members. The county agent
will be able to take four in his car
from Colfax. We will meet at the
Palace hotel in Pullman at 1900
clock.

Poison Bait Formulas Given for Use

Cutworms are among the most
troublesome insects with which the
gardener has to deal. Every year
these insects, working generally
throughout the United States, de-

says e. S. Robertson, extension horti-
culturist of the State College. A poi

orchard, garden or field is made UP
as follows:
For garden use:
Al OF. Paris green, IL lbs. wheat
bran.
B-A of lemon or orange, u pint

To use in the orchard, the follow
ing amounts should be used
Al ID. Paris green, 20 lbs wheat
bran.
B-3 lemons or oranges, pints of

Squeeze the juice from the fruit
and then chop fine as in. meat

around the hills at night or early in
the evening. The cutworm feeds at
night and if poisoned usually hides
in the ground or under rubbish be-
fore it dies. Be sure and keep the
chickens away from the bait, as it
is poison
