Insect Pests
Still Active
NrasshOppers and Crickets Are
Still Doing Extensive
Crop Damage.

Grasshoppers and crickets in
Big Horn county IRE still doing
extensive damage to the crops Of
the county, especially in the irrl-
gated valleys. A campaign CT
control, giving good results, has
been carried on for over a month
and still continues under the d.
rection of the board of county
commissioners, cooperating with
farmers by providing part of the
poison material used. Three weeks
ago the WPA was asked to as
sist by furnishing help and ma
terial: About twenty men have
been assigned to mixing bait and
100 tons of bran. However, only
20 tons have been received thus
far which lasted only a few days.
The supply Of bran for mixing
bait has run out and the WPA
is unable to supply it as fast as 1t
is needed. Every effort has been
used to get more bran but the
supply at nearby mills is ex-
hausted.
The WPA has given the promise
OF another car but when that will
arrive nobody knows and in the
meantime the orasshor-ers con-
tlnue their ravages on the crops.

torney of Big Horn county and
made a splendid record here and
was considered one of the bes!

never started a criminal prosecu-
ton until he had made a very
careful investigation and, as a re-
suit, practically every case started
resulted in a conviction. The ex-
pense of the office vas kept at a
minimum and still the laws were
properly enforced. He was a very
courteous public official and, al
together, gave the highest salts
faction. Who's Who in America
lists him with this comment, "has
an exceptional record in criminal
cases on trial and on appeal in
the supreme court, credited with
breaking up the cattle rustlinE
gangs" His Hardin friends wish
