Sage Rat Control Should
Be Started At Once

With the warm weather having
fairly we'll started now, sage rats are
found everywhere in abundance, not
only the over-W intering adults, but
probably most of the younger brood
now being above ground. In the waste
areas green growth will soon be linn
tied and hence this should be a good
time to secure control of the pest be-
fore it moves in onto farm land. The
use of the poison Oat bait prepared
by the bureau of biological survey and
which may be secured through drug
stores of the county or at the county
agents Office, has proved effective in
the past almost any time of the year
up to the time that the sage rat hiber-
mates. We, personally, have distributed
this bait during the latter part of June
and have been able to count number
of sage rats that were not able to get
back to the burroW
Recently a farmer called our atten-
ton to damage to alfalfa fields from
sage rats on an abandoned area next
to him and stated that these rats
usually worked far over into the field

QUARANTINE REMOVED

Word has been received from Erie
j. Barnes, director of agriculture, that
the Colorado Potato Beetle quarantine
against the shipment of potatoes from
Eastern Washington to Western Wash
ington has been removed.
With the beginning of the shipping
of the potato crop produced in the
state of Washington during the crop
year of 1882, it will no longer be nee
essary to obtain field inspections or to
screen at the car door potatoes shipped
or sold in the state of Washington,
provided the potatoes are packed in
new or clean bags with no visible pres
cence of the Colorado Potato Beetle
on any part of the lot at the time of
shipment
Potato shipments to California and
Oregon will necessarily have to be
screened at the car door as has been
the practice in the past.

OF Interest To Farmers
BY County Agent E. c. Durdle

AS first measure of control this
year, due to general lack of money
with which to purchase chemicals for
weed control, we would suggest that
the farmer try to arrange for irriga-
ton and cultivation so as to farm
around infested spots as far as this
is at all possible. The reason for this
is that these weeds may spread from
seed and from pieces of the root stock
that may be dragged out on to new
areas and thus start new points of
infestation. Occasionally piece Of
root may be dragged three or four
rods from the original patch and be
unnoticed for several years, until fairly
good sized.
We are planning on the holding Of
some meetings in the communities in
the near future at which this problem
will be discussed with all interested
in trying to control this problem.
Briefly we might say that if the
patches are small we believe that the
use of some chemical means of con-
troll is the wise thing even though it
may be little expensive. 1t is better
to clean up the patches of infesta-
ton before the problem does become
general even though it may be little
expensive to begin with. Further in
formation will be given at these meet
ingS.

Strawberry Root Weevil
May Cause Much Damage

Further check on the strawberry root
Weevil situation of the county shows
that the pest is widely scattered. It
would seem that there must be no
other alternative than continuous pois-
oning of the fields from year to year
as an insurance aaginst increase Of
the weevl to the point that they will
cause serious damage in the field. We
can safely say that not man that
we have contacted on the problem real
lied until this spring that he had any
weevil present and yet the damage
this year will run rather heavy.
A further check on Oregon bulletin
10 shows that they have been able to
secure very good results at that sta
ton with the use of bran as the base
for their poison mixture and since 1t
probably will be cheaper to use and
little more easily obtained there is
probability that work will be done
along this line rather than the use
of apple as poison bait.
o. B. Roberts, horticultural inspect
or at Prosser is doing some special
work at this time in checking up on
prevalence of the weevi over the
county and Identification of various
weevils that may be present. Informa-
ton as accumulated will be made
available from time to time.

A COMMUNITY BENEFIT

The financial stringency of the past few years
has been the basis for much abuse and grumbling
but, on the other hand, it has taught the entire
country number of much-needed lessons Far
reaching fundamental changes are being made in
both ideas and established procedures; excess
expenditures by taxing bodies being studied
carefully by taxpayers, and all unnecessary gov
ernmental functions are being forced into the
discard.
Of all the changes brought about by this per-
iod of DEPRESSION of the most important is the
''Buy at Home" movement that has sprung up in
every part of the nation The dollar that goes out
of the community does very little good, either
directly or Indirectly, to that community, and the
Individual spending that dollar receives nothing
more than the actual merchandise.
The dollar spent at home accomp]ishes many
benefits. The person spending it not only receives
his moneys worth of merchandise but makes it
possible for the merchant to improve the store
to increase his stock, that very soon the entire
community benefits by possessing better bust
ness section. The longer that dollar stays in the
community the more benefits are accomplished.
And it takes only short time for that dollar to
return to the original spender-uness it has gone
out of the community. dollar sent away for mer-
chandse travels on one-way ticket, but the dol
lar spent at home is travelling on round-trip
ticket

Perennial Weed Problem
Again Faces Farmers

Perennial weeds are getting far
enough along in their growth that
many of them can be identified at this
time. Farmers having any suspicion
that they may have perennial weeds
in small patches or any considerable
areas on the farm may well watch
these patches closely at this time to
note habits of growth. The quickest
method of Identification of the bad
perennial weed will be to take shovel
and dig up the root system. If one
finds an extensive root system spread
ing everywhere with new plants COM
ing from it at intervals then one will
be reasonably sure that he has one of
the serious weed pests and steps should
be taken to identify it so as to learn
just how serious it may vecome. There
are some which are much more diff
cult to control and therefore more
serious than others.

The particular garter in question
happens to be adorned by photo

romantic moment, had presented it
to girl friend as a token of his
afectionate regard.
This is well enough until he gets
engaged to another girl whereupon
he becomes inbued with the idea
that as matter of discretion he
ought to get possession Of the tell
tale garter without either of the
fair charmers knowing it.

Charlie Davis and his gang have
taken charge of musical affairs in

The Dodge twins, Beth and Bet

like SO many of their sister artists,
first jumped into the limelight on
foreign soil. 1t was in the very
naughty and gay Partisan "Follies

won their spurs, and then it was
that Shuberts returned them to the
U. S. A. as the stars of their own
Broadway show, "a Night in Ven

And here they are in RKO
vaudeville, offering a many-scene
revue.
Allen and Kent two dancing boys,
aid the girls in their act.
On the stage Benny Ross is said
to be man of multiple personal
tiles. He is himself and almost
any one else he may choose to be.
In his act he selects to be a num-
Der of stage and screen stars. He
is George Jessel, Harry Richman,
Maurice Chevalier, Al Jolson, Tito
Ruffo, all by varying his method of
singing.
Maxine Stone, a redhead, intro
duces several intricate acrobatic
dance steps after which she engages
in fast exchange of comedy chat

Marie Hartman is said to be one
of the funniest women in vaude-

season, they present a new sketch
