HARVESTING COYOTES

Gabriel Jaddan and Wesley Rob-
bins, two of the perennial trappers IN
thi.; district, have begun their annual
harvest of coyotes. This consists in
bringing in alive the coyotes caught

dition for the market. The coyote
menu at this season of the year con-
sists mainly of fruit and vegetables.
the animals being very partial to
watermelons. Later, when the wea-
Their becomes colder, meat is added to
the menu. The animals are generally
slaughtered in December when the
condition OF the fur is at its best and
when the pelts command the hlgnest
price. Mr.. Jaddan says he now has
fifteen coyote boarders while Mr.. Rob-
bins is reported to have between rs
and 80.

TRAVEL BY AIR AS
CHEAPLY AS BY TRAIN

Varney Air Line officials have plac-
ed a rail plus pullman fare rate on
the majority Of the system operated
by the Company. The low rates were
a ss.S Ss-,ssiv1 Monday September 22, 1890
and will remain reduced for a period
of 81 days. The temporary tariff is
effective between the following towns:
Portland, Pasco, Boise, to Salt Lake
City, and also between Spokane to
Pasco. The Spokane-Pasco service
connects with the main line that runs
on thru to Salt Lake City. The rate
is considered as purely educational and
it's sole aim is to educate as many
people as possible during the allotted
time to the many advantages OF
travel by air.
The Varney Air Lines operates
Bc.sing built passenger equipment
with radio installed. The Varney air.
ways follow the Department Of Com
aerce constructed and maintained air
routes to the east. Passengers will be
carried along with the mail with
regular air mail pilots at the controls.

NOW is the TIME TO
CONTROL POCKET GOPHERS

The season for effective control
of the pocket gopher with the mini
mum expenditure of time and mater
ial is during October and cs,ly Nov
ember. Control at this time consists
mainly in the use of poison bats
placed directly in the main runway
used by the pocket gopher. Location
of the runway and proper distribu-
ton of the bats is the thing which
the operator must learn from first
hand experience and observation.
Because of several complaints hav-
ing come to the County Agent from
communities, we have felt that there
might be need for demonstration
meetings again this year for the con-
troll of this pest. Meetings will not
be held, however, unless there is
enough interest in the problem to
secure attendance at these meetings
which will be conducted by a rep
resentative of the Bureau of Bldg
ical Survey who will be brought into
the County for this particular purpose.
Those having problem of pocket
gopher control and wishing meeting
in their community should talk the
matter up with neighbors and then
take the matter up with the County
Agent. We hesitate to ask these men
to come into the County for such
meetings unless there is enough inter-
est to bring out at least reasonable
number at the meetings. These men
have had considerable experience
with control measures and also will
have the latest information as to
methods and these methods should
be very much worthwhile for any
having much of a pocket
gopher problem.
E. C. DURDLE, County Agent.

ALL 1880 GRADUATES
NOW FILLING POSITIONS

every agricultural graduate of the
June 1880 class at the State College
is already filling position in the agri-
cultural field" declares Edward C..
Johnson, dean of the college of
agriculture. "These opportunities have
come in farming, fruit-warehousing,
dairy manufacturing, teaching agri-
culture in Smith Hughes schools,
working with tractor and power COM
parlies, and in the feed business, hor-
ticultural inspection, county agent
work and research in connection with
the State College agricultural expert
ment station. Six graduates have been
granted fellowships at educational
institutions where they have oppor-
tunity for research work and adj
vanced study in preparation for col
lege teaching.
" The high class graduate in agri-
culture easily finds work in which the
training obtained in college years can
be used to great advantage. Usually
there are more opportunities than
available men. OF the more than 600
graduates in agriculture from the State
College of Washington, today approx
imately As percent are in professional
agriculture work; Is per cent are
farming or managing farms; IS per
cent are in agricultural business; 10
per sent are in other business activ-
tiles; and S per cent are engaged in
miscellaneous enterprises. Over 8 pei
cent are in the strictly agricultural
field for which their college training
fitted them"

Basin League
Meet in Yakima
Next Saturday
Many. Noted Men Will
Attend 9th Annual
Convention

The Ninth Annual Convention of
the Columbia Basin League to be held
for the first time this year in Yakima,
Saturday, September III, is expected to
attract a rather distinguished crowd
of visitors. Among those who it is
said are planning to attend are Sen
tors Jones and Dill and Congressman
Summers, Johnson, Hadley, Miller and
Hill Of Washington and Senators
Borah and Thomas of Idaho and Nc
Nary of Oregon.
Governor Hartley is also planning
to attend and he has invited Govern
ors Baldridge of Idaho, Erickson of
Montana and Norblad of Oregon to
be his guests at the convention.
In addition, it is expected that one
hundred and fifty commercial Or
ganization secretarys will be at the
meeting as well as numerous others
in the state interested in the project.
One of the things is is hoped to
accomplish this year is the adoption
of some agreement between the Pac-
ific northwest states for an equitable
distribution of the water from the
Columbia river watershed in which
the future needs of these states will
be anticipated.
The reports to be submitted by
President Joseph A. Swalwell, and
Roy c. Gill, Chairman of the Execu-
tive COMMITTEE, will show that more
than a million dollars will have been
expended on surveys and studies OF
the Columbia Basin Irrigation Pro-
ject by the end Of June, 1931-when
the war Department and Reclamation
Service will have made their final re-
ports and recommendations to the
President and Congress.
With such a thorough study of
feasibility Of the Project and with
background of rich soil and sunshine,
Senator Jones is reported to be OF
the belief that the Columbia Basin
bill can be passed when The. Tseague
goes to Congress in 1881 to have the
Project made Federal Project.
eff we have good luck, we will on
ly hold two more Conventions of this
League after this year," said Pres
ident Swalwell Zone will be held
in 1881 to agree on the form of bill
to be offered in Congress, and to lay
out the plan Of operations for putting
it through. The last one will be in
1882 to celebrate.
"After that the details will be UP
to Commissioner Mead of Washington
D. c. and Commissioner Erie Barnes,
of Washington state.
"We hope for huge crowd at Yak
ina this year. We are mighty glad
the Secretaries of the Chambers OF
Commerce are to be there in body"

Residents at Benton City are trying
to secure cannery for that district.
Speaking before the Prosser CONNER
cial Club in Prosser Tuesday of last
week, E. ]. Sanders of the Benton
City Community Club, as reported in
the Prosser Record Bulletin, said:
eve feel that Benton City land is
ideal for asparagus, and we are try
ing to increase our planting to 200
acres. Many of the farmers are favor
able to this plan, but the matter OF
finance is holding them back, as it
takes at least three years before a
crop can be harvested after it is
planted. Those three years are a long
time to wait" Sanders declared that
he felt some company could be in
duced to build a cannery there if
sufficient acreage were planted. eve

and encouragement to achieve this
end" he said.
