Digger Squirrel
Poisoning Week


This week. April l1th to f6th, has
been proclaimed by the Rodent Con-
troll committee OF the Farm Bureau
rs Digger Week" Every farmer in
Jackson county is supposed to poison
squirrels some time during this week.
This will be the start of the first
campaign, and little later another
week will be set aside for this same
work. as all of the squirrels do not
come out at the same time. Some OF
them will sleep longer than others,
and will not come out for three or
TOUR weeks yet. In order to make a
thorough cleanup of the digger, It is
necessary to start this work early and
Keep 1t going all summer. Every
farmer should make it a practice to
have poison grain convenient and use
IT when he sees digger squirrel.
Let us all get together this week and
see what you have done at the first
cleanup. Every community in the
county has pledged its support to
eradicate the digger squirrel as soon
as possible. Poison barley can be OBJ
tained in every section at cost at 1e
cents per hound.

A company OF Ashland citizens. ac-

manufactured at the local iron works,
and the demonstration of the pump
given yesterday has reused the keen
est interest among those who wit

ter was forced on the land From
present indications the new pump
promises to be one OF the best assets

Larimore Chosen
For Crater Lake
Hotel Manager

The Northwest Hotel News an
nounces that Mr., II. F.. Larimore has
been selected TO go to Crater Lako
national park and take charge of the
hotel there. The securing of his SER
vices will settle satisfactorily lthe
question OF the hotel management at
this most popular resort OF Oregon.
MIR. Larlmore will be under the diree-
ERECTION OF A. l.. Parkhurst.
Mr. Larimore is well known over
the country as successful manager.
\ His work at The Oregon in Portland,
yafter the failure of Wright & Dickin-
son, was such that he turned the tide
bf business from a distinct loss at the
time he took 1t 10 take charge OF the
housing proposition at the Standifer
Ship Yards under the U. s. shipping
board. Here he had charge OF the big
Liberty hotel and thirty bungalows
for a period OF three years.
Mr.. Larimore has always been very
active In all civic matters, having been
one of the successful speakers on
all Liberty loan and salvation Army
drives during the period OF the war.
and in 1917 he was the president OF
the Rose Festival Association and
through his untiring efforts. with
nothing but opposition and very little
money at the hands of the festival
board, succeeded in giving Portland
a festival that year second to none in
its history.
The traveller and tourist will be as
sured that all that Is necessary in the
way OF hospitable and courteous

out for his comfort and pleasure. We
