hunt for feed at night instead of
feeding on growing crops. After
hunting food all night the ducks
are too tired to do much damage
in the daytime, it was pointed out
at the meeting There still is some
damage to crops, growers said, but
it is greatly cut down.
PLANE STILL USED
Farmers are still paying the
cost of an airplane to herd the
ducks three hours day at the
rate of $40 an hour Vegetable
growers assessed themselves 10
cents an acre of lettuce for their
share and all but one grower in
the valley paid up, it was announc-
ed. Grain and hay growers were
assessed five cents an acre and
many of them paid up also.
The committee backed up Baxter
Loveland, chairman, in his stand
against the federal government
acquiring any more land in the
valley in connection with the duck
control program and recommended
that the land be leased instead of
bought outright.
Committee members will meet with
the federal visitors on the court
