ARMY CUT WORM
CONTROLLED BY POISON

Entomology experts from the ex-
perimental station at Bozeman tell
us that due to the enormously large
amount of army cutworm moths last
year in certain localities we are apt
to have an outbreak of the army
cutworms this coming year. The
army cutworm, however, is one insect
pest that can be controlled provided
the farmer gets on the ground in
time and recognizes the insect. It
does not work under the ground as
do the Pale Western cutworms but
travels in large armies above the
ground, taking the young grain as
it goes. The danger of an outbreak,
if there is one, will be during April
and the early part of May. In case
outbreak happens in Roosevelt
county we have plenty of poison sup
plies on hand to handle it. The
used is exactly the same as
hat used for grasshoppers with the
exception of the absence of Banana
oil. 1t will be handled at cost price
the event that it is needed. The
farmers should be on the alert OBJ
all the time any abnormal
conditions in insect life in respect
the cutworms and also the grass
possibility and in case of in
locations of these should notify the
Agent to give him as much
as possible to prepare for any
insect outbreak that may accur.

KILL A MILLION
SAVE A MILLION

Alvin Warrior, rodent control pro
ject leader of the Roosevelt County
Farm Bureau, and Ed Zimmerman,
farmer of the Divide community, say
that the time to feed the gopher
poison is right after they come out
of the ground because they are more
hungry her and there is less green
food for them to eat.
If all poison that is on hand in
Roosevelt county is properly used
early in the season it will kill 1,000,-
900 gophers that will do that many
dollars worth of damage if we have
large crop acreage and a good
yield this coming year.
Take a day off to poison while
the ground is thawing out and get a
couple of sacks of poison which is
one-half of it given to you free and

RANKIN TAKES ACTION
MONTANA RAIL RATES

Helena, Montana, Mar. 21.-Every
railroad in Montana was today
named as defendant in an action
filed with the state railroad commits
sion by Attorney General Wellington
d. Rankin asking for a reduction of
existing freight rates. The com
plant urges that hearings be held
as soon as possible that the level of
freight rates within the state be re-
duced horizontally to a just, fair,
equitable and reasonable basis"
The complaint charges that exist
ing rates produce many undue
preferences and unjust descrimina-
lions between localities and between
persons within said state and that
such increase in freight rates re-
suited and now results in the impo-
sition of unjust, unfair and
able rates and charges for the serv-
ices rendered by such carriers, and
works a manifest injustice upon the
producers of raw materials, and upon
consumers and upon shippers of
freight and the people of the state
of Montana as a whole and retards
the development of the resources of
the state"
The attorney general complains
that the increased rates were ordered
at a time when the cost of labor, ma
terials and hauling of freight was
at the peak and "that since such time
there have been and now are mark
ed decreases in the cost of railroad
labor and in the cost of railroad ma
1t is also charged that in
face of decreased costs to the
railroads they have maintained "and
now maintain, Notwithstanding
he statewide protests of shippers
md of the public generally, said ex-
.~essive, unreasonable and exhorbi-
ant charges, rates and tolls"
The complaint sets forth that the
tate railroad commission has full
nd complete jurisdiction over inter
tate freight rates and is empowered
o order a proper reduction.

WAITING FOR WESTEND
BOY CORN GROWERS

Over 25 applications for the Boys
Corn Growing Contest have been
filled out, completing the B~ainville,
Culbertson and Poplar districts. Ac-
cording to reports from Mrs. Burnt
son of Wolf Point, as soon as all the
boys of that district can get into
communication or in touch with her
the Wolf Point district will be com
plete.
With about 40 days yet until corn
planting time, practically all the dis
trict communities are up to the min
imum. The boys are getting a line
on good seed, looking over the old
corn planter to see that it is in
having the seed tested to
make sure that it will grow and MAX
ing all preparations toward the sue
cessful growing of some real corn.
With the four districts up to the
minimum, Roosevelt county will have
over 100 acres Of high class corn
this coming year. It is believed that
here will be at least 500 acres
handled through the corn growing
contest which is only a junior affair
md will doubtless give the foundation
o some real corn production in fu-
ure years.
All the farmers who have boys
lnder 10 years of age should en-

Arrangements have been made
with city officials, to use the tourist
camp grounds, built last year by the
Motor club. as 10 the headquarters
OF the company in Casper.
During the heavy triffic season,
caravans will arrive in Casper about
6 y. m. from east and west and will
leave about 7 or 8 A. m. the next
morning on their way to Yellow
tone park to the west and on their
way to Cheyenne. Denver and other
points to tho east. Some of the
cars will lay up hero for a week.
at a time in order to make repairs,
afford opportunity for travellers to
rest and get acquainted with Casper
and its people and then they will
be on their way again.
The promoters OF this company
have given the directors OF the Mo
tor club positive assurance that
their payroll will not run less than
$4,000 during the summer season
and the best guarantee of all is tina.
positive has been given
that every cent Of this payroll Will
be spent in Casper with Casper mer-
chants and business men.
