Free Government
GrasshOpper Bait

Free government grasshopper bait
is now available to Benton and
Franklin County farmers at the
county warehouse in KenneWick,
according to the announcement OF
County Agent Skuse.
Farmers securing this poison
should bring their own containers.
This free poison is mixed by the
farmers who secure it, being done
under the direction of Mr.. Berg,
foreman of the county garage. Hours
for mixing are one to three Tuesday
AND Friday afternoons.
While grass hoppers are not bad
this year those that are present can
do considerable damage and should
be poisoned against. Wheat growers
also in the Locust Grove community
might possibly find it necessary to
poison as previously. The bulk Of
the damage, however, has always
been on head lettuce and to some
extent on other crops.
