FIELD INSPECTOR
PAYS VISIT HERE

Joe Eisman, inspector for the
Montana Seed Growers aSSocia-
ton, Bozeman, inspected the
fields belonging to members of
the association in Big Horn
county last week in cooperation
with G. w. G~uStafson, county
extension agent. Most of the
members of Big Horn county
are producing alfalfa seed, it
was stated.
Mr.. Eisman found the fields
generally in good condition, al
though some fields are infeS-
ted with some of the common
weeds which may be somewhat
difficult to separate from the
alfalfa seed. Alfalfa fields be-
longing to the following mem
bers were inspected: Stark Bair,
A.. o. Gustafson, Evelyn Saw
yer. G.. E. Crosby, A. NJ. CroS-
by of Hardin; Erwin Schnad,
Garryowen; Lloyd Harris, Gar

PURPLE TOP IS
REPORTED HERE

Some evidence of purple top
has been found in this county,
Don Pletsch, assistant entomol-
ogiSt of the state college at
Bohemian, reported this week.
Purple top. which is caused by
an insect knwn as the yellow
psyllid, should be watched for
by potato growers. Although the
threat is not great to potatoes
in his county growers are urged
to spray their plants with lime
sulphur according to recon-
mended practices at the first
sign of infeStation.
MI. Pletsch recommends that
the grower examine the potato
fields every three or four days,
and with the first sign of infes-
tation start spraying. Infestation
can first be observed on plants
along the margin Of the field,
he stated.
! The most effective spray is
lime sulphur at the rate of 10
pounds to 100 gallons of water
applied with a pressure Sprayer.
II the Colorado beetle is pres
ent two pounds of zinc arsenite
may be added to every 100 gal
Ions of spray to control them.
Further information regarding
the potato psyllid and treatment
may be had by contracting the
county extension office.

One Hundred Thirty
lib Men Are Vented

One hundred thirty class 1-B
men are wanted by the United
States army along with the reg
ular call for August, Lieutenant
Ben F. Hardin of the state Sc
lective service board informed
the Big Horn county board re-
Gently. The amount wanted is
for the whole state of Montana,
however.
1-B men are those so claSSed
because of physical defects, it
was stated.
The bulletin to the local board
stated, Montana will have a
requlsition for 100 1-B men
along with the regular call for
August. The state board has re-
quested that all local boards
publicize this call for 1-B men
and ask for volunteers. All Sc
lective service personnel are
aware that there are a great
many Americans who are very
DESTROYS of serving their coun-
try and are only prevented from
doing so by physical defects
which place them in 1-B."
Local boards were asked tc
notify the state office as to the
number of volunteer 1-B mer
they have as of august /.

WARNED ABOUT
GRASSh0PPERS
Millions Hdtching
Out In Certuin
Ports Of County

Grasshoppers are threatening
crops in a number of districts
in Big Horn county, G. W. Gus
tafson, county extension agent,
announced this week. The re-
cent hot weather has Matched
the hoppers out by the millions,
he added.
It is not expected that much
damage will be done to winter
wheat which will be harvested
soon. but arrangements have
been made in cooperation with
the bureau of entomology and
plant quarantine and Big Horn
county to provide grasShopper
bait to farmers in the county.
The bait is now available at
the fairgrounds in Hardin and
it is necessary for farmers who
get this bait to provide their
own containers such as sacks or
barrels. Bait containers cannot
be furnished this year by the
bureau or the county, it was
said.
Mr.. GustafSon stated that
regular and consistent poisoning
will check the damage done by
hoppers by reducing their num-
Der. There is evidence of para
sites working on the hoppers in
some areas and it is possible
that these natural enemies may
check the infestation. Too much
dependence should not be
placed on the parasites, how
ever, he added.
Ray Pratt, assistant entomol.
ogist, is in charge of the con-
troll campaign in Big Horn
county.

WEED CONTROL,
WORK STARTED

Weed control work has been
started under a systematic plan
in Big Horn county under the
direction of a weed control
board composed of Roy Cool,
r. B. Macleod and Guy Van
Cleve. Methods of control rec
commended by the state expert
ment station and data developed
in the other counties of the
state are being followed.
A weed burner has been pro-
vided by the county which is
being used on such weeds as
Canada thistle and white top.
White top is one of the most
serious nOXlOuS weeds in Mon
tana and fortunately it has not
secured much of a foothold in
this county, it was stated.
killing the few patches of
white top that have appeared
here before the weed has a
chance to spread will mean
thousands of dollars worth of
control work saved in the fu-
ture, the board said.
Any farmer knowing of a
white top weed patch in the
county is urged to report it to
George w. Gustafson and every
effort will be made to eradicate
the weed. This applies to farm
ers living within or outside an
organized weed district in the
county.
Two methods of controlling
weeds were suggested as cult
walton and summer fallow and
the application of chemicals
such as atlacide or carbon BIZ
sulfide on the smaller patche1
or inaccessible places in cor
nerS and on ditch banks.
Farmers interested in the
weed control program are asked
to contact the board at the
county extension agents office
in Hardin.
James Quest has been EN-.
ployed to take charge of weec
control work in the county.

CITY ASKS CONSTRUCTION COMPANY
TO ELIMINATE EXCESSIVE OIL
Council Takes Up
Other Matters At
Regular Meeting

The Woodward Construction
company, the firm that oiled
the streets in Hardin, was asked
by the city council to return
here for the purpose of elimin-
tating the excessive oil on cer-
tain streets.
Recent hot weather has soft
ened the streets and the oil Is
being tracked into stores and
homes.
The city has retained more
than 5000 due the construction
company so that this unsatis-
factory condition can be remi-
died, it was stated.
Tentative plans are to spread
clean rock chips over the streets
and have them rolled into the
soft oil. It was not stated as to
how soon the workers would
start the work.
Other business to come before
the council at their meeting
Tuesday night was the passing
of bills and reviewing the re-
ports of the city departments.
Jerome BernS, representing
the Commodity Credit corpora
ton, was granted permission to
erect %granaries in the city lin
its. The storage bins will be
erected in the southwest part
of the city, it was stated.
The applications of Betty
Rhinehart and Lyle Haverfield
as life guards at the municipal
swimming pool was tabled. At
present the pool is closed due
to a shortage of chlorine. The
council also stated unanimously
that they wished to have an
adult man or woman employed
as life guard at the pool. Ellis
worth Skeie and Barney Sibley
were the guards there, but they
have taken positions elsewhere.
The application of Mrs. Hell
en- I. Koch to cut the crrbing
in front of her vacant lot adj
joining the Chambers grocery
store, was rejected.
The lot was to be used for a
parking space, but the council
stated that from a safety stand
point it could not be granted.
It was suggested that entrance
to the lot be made from the
alley.
Dan Ratledge, garbage collec-
tor, appeared before the coun-
Gil in response to his request
that his contract was not being
fully complied with. He stated
that he could not empty gar
bage from the so to 60 gallon
barrels which are being used
by a number of persons in Har-
din. He stated that they were
too heavy to handle.
The city ordinance provided
that all garbage cans must not
exceed two bushels in SiZe,, shall
be metallic and water tight, and
must be equipped with a cover
and handles. Under his con-
tract, Rutledge is not required
to empty heavy barrels of gar
bage, it was stated.
Persons having garbage cans
that are too large are urged to
conform to the specification as
set out in the city ordinance.
The pay of John Butkay
Seth Thompson, Henry Miller
and Harold Belts, who are reg
ularly employed by the various
departments of the city, was
placed on a month basis OF $12s
per month each. This is a small
increase in pay, it was stated.
