WATCH ORCHARDS FOR MICE

Reports have come to the county
agent that field mice are rather pre-
yalent in some orchards in the White
Bluffs Hanford territory. This rodent
for a number of years has been much
more common in the upper valley and
in the Wenatchee section than it has
been in Benton county. Literally tons
of poison bait are used in both the
Yakima and Wenatchee sections to
control this pest It has always been
rather mystery to us that this pest
has not been more of problem here
than it has. The first damage report
ed from 1t was in Benton City and
yet during the four years that we
have served as county agent In this
county we believe that it is safe to
say that not more than quarter Of
a ton Of bait has been used in the
entire county for the control Of this
pest.
We can see no reason why this pest
may not become rather serious as 1t
has In one or two instances IN the
county In the past and develop as SER
ious pests in many orchards IN the
community. We would advise every
fruit grower, and particularly those
with heavy cover crops to check the
situation Immediately, and if any con-
siderable number OF orchard mice are
found in the orchard, to take steps
for their control.
The standard method of control has
been the use of poison of practically
the same as we use for the sage rat,
distributed about the base of the trees
particularly where the cover crop is
rather heavy and where the mice like
to work. Unless the infestatiOn is
heavy it is probable that ten to TWEEN
ty pounds of grain per acre would
clean up the situation.
The main damage done by orchard
mice is in the girdling of the tree just
below the surface of the ground OF
during the winter time when the snow
lis on the ground, between the ground
line and the top of the snow. We have
seen apricot trees girdled for distances
of ten to twelve inches by orchard
mice and rabbits together. Wherever
sweet clover is used for a cover CROP
the orchard mice seem to be more in
clined to harbor and work and it is
particularly in these orchards that we
urge careful check on the situation
to be sure that they are not becoming
numerous. The loss of one tree would
more than offset the cost of bait and
labor of putting it out. This material
can be secured from the drug stores
in the county or directly through
the county agents office.

HORTICULTURAL TOURS

Two days of the past week were
given to the study of various problems
relative to horticultural problems of
and White Bluffs communities. 1t is
probable that tour will be arranged
in the Benton City community lit
tie later in the month. These tours
have not been held in the Prosser
community due to the fact that the
Station tour is readily available for
farmers of that locality
The tours have covered problems of
fertilization of tree fruits, stops have
been made at orchards showing very
definite results from fertilizers as
against the check plots and to other
orchards where no commercial fertil-
izer has been used for a number of
years and yet where the leaf color
and growth is normal and good alfalfa
cover crops in the orchard. One of the
things stressed in this phase of the
work was that fruit growers could
well study their orchards and the or
chards of others and observe the con-
ditions which would indicate the need
of fertilizer or lack of this need.
Plots on fertilization of other crops
such as strawberries, asparagus, pota-
toes were also visited. Attention has
been also called to the alfalfa fertil
ization pot and visit made to one of
them to show clearly how this crop
is an indicator of fertility needs of
the soil in order to bring about the
best plant growth.
Mite control was also observed and
discussed. Generally speaking we
might say that where good control of
the mite has been secured it is al
most invariably true that lime sulphur
has been used. In the White Bluffs
community, however, several orchards
were observed where good control had
been secured through the normal use
of oil and liquid spreader There
were many complaints that oil had
not controlled this pest for them,
Discussion of various perennial
weeds have drawn much interest this
year. Wherever possible, the various
weeds were observed SO that farmers
might remember to identify them. In
some cases where the chlorate treat
ment had been applied recently, these
areas were looked over. The chlorate
method of control was particularly
stressed as the most economical meth
cd of control and where it was proper
lily handled it should offer no serious
difficulty even in the orchard.
These discussions were particularly
we'll attended in the Richland and
White Bluffs and Hanford communit-
les and fairly well attended in the
Kennewick community. Mr.. j. T. Breg-
GER extension horticulturist, assisted
the county agent during these two days
on these tours and added consider
ably by way of discussion of many of
the fundamental problems.

SHARE IT WITH THE FARMER

News stories have been creeping into the daily papers
lately, especially in western cities, of the milk be-
tween the dairymen and the distributors of the milk.
Declining milk prices have become an increasingly
ious problem to the dairy farmers
The price Declines of themselves, do not necessarily
the farmers economic standards. The fault lies
i'm the fact that farmers have been forced to take all OF
the loss When milk sold at Is cents quart the disib
tor received 65 cents. With milk selling at 13 cents
less the dealer still has his 65 cent margin, the farmer
absorbing the loss.
The farmer cannot continue to bear the price cuts
alone Reduction in milk prices natural part of the
drop in commodity prices Of ll kinds but the deal
must help bear the burden He must follow the
pie of the farmer who has raised his efficiency and
duced his operating costs to adj just himself to changed
conditions.
Out of the 65 cent dealer Margin about onehalf cent
is said be profit and about three cents goes for driver
and wagon expense 1t is not probable that these items
be apprecably reduced. The cut must out of
the other three cent which goes for overhead Dealers
and farmers should work together in living through the
present period Of low price levels Each is necessary

HIGHLY PROFITABLE

Planting Of fall gardens will prove

The surplus can be easily canned

ROASTING PROCESS
 HAS ACCURACY OF
 ANCIENT TIMEPIECE
Hour-glass and Hills Bros. Method of Roasting Coffee
 Operate a Little at a Time
Associated i'ress Photo
Asaociaieu ress PAote

It is. fascinating to watch an hour-glass flowing evenly, continu- ously, a little at time. But the flavor of coffee that's roasted con- tinuously, q Httle at time, is even more fascinating!
 Controlled Roasting-Hills Bros. patented ocess-is the only such roasting method. As the ac- curacy of the hour-glass depends upon an even, continuous flow |. little at time ... so the marvel ous flavor of Hills Bros. Coffee is produced by this patented process that roasts evenly, continuously q little at time.
 There is a vast difference between Controlled Roasting and ordinary bulk-roasting methods. There is a vast difference in results tool! Con- trolled Roasting fiawlessly com pletes the work that Nature began in the coffee-berry. It develops the flavor perfectly! You have never tasted the like, if you have never tasted Hills Bros. Coffee.
 Remember also that this coffee never varies in flavor. And it is al- ways fresh! Air, which destroys the flavor of coffee, is removed and kept out of Hills Bros.' vacuum cans. Ordinary, "air-tight" cans won't keep coffee fresh. Order Hills Bros. Coffee today. Ask for it by name, and look for the Arab trade mark on the can.

 material witness, was being held
 under a $3,50O bond.
 Miss Jones was reported to have
 been severely beaten up by Kling- bell as she resisted him. Earlier Saturday evening, Klingbeil had
 driven her and companion, Will
 lard Howard, from town to Mud Bay and on returning to town
 drove the couple to the girls home. There, it is alleged, he forced
 Howard out of the automobile and then drove it with the girl to the
 graveyard where he attacked her. Johnson is declared to have aided in abducting the girl but did not take any part in the assault.

TRUST PL AIMED
 TO SAVE SWISS |WATCH INDUSTRY
Reorganization, to Elimin. ate Harmful Competi-
 ton, Sought
By PLAUTUs I. LIPsEY, Jr.

GENEVA, Oct. 26.- Reorganiza- tton of the Swiss watch industry, to eliminate harmful competition, is being sought by the coun!try's chief watchmakers, who have fallen on hard times.
 The plan contemplates formation of a national Swiss watch trust, while leaving management and pro- duction to individual manufact- ursrs:
 Up to Government
 1t is proposed that the Federal Government, which is always prompt to succor the country's big industries in distress, should buy a big block of stock in the export corporation.
 The watch and clock industry o1 Switzerland, one of it's four eco homie mainstays, is constituted o1 scores of companies, large anc small. In commercial quarters il is said that underselling to foreign buyers has been a great drain or the industry.
 Another practice denounced a. harmful is the export of Swis! watch movements and expert Swis' workers. In foreign factories ths Swiss movement in skilled Swisl hands becomes foreign produc and is sold to the advantage of tn, foreign industry.
 Many Employed
 Horology is an ancient and hon ored occupation in Switzerland. II 1882 there were 2,662 factories ant 135 900 workers engaged in mak ing timepieces. By 1929 the watcl factories had grown to 8,514 ant watch workers numbered more thai 100000, a tenth of the population Now of the unemployed person entered on Swiss insurance rolls 18 per cent are watch workers; o the partially employed. 56 per cen are of the same trade SwftSefland's latest count of un employsb, total and partial, is nor than 33S ,O0s persons.
