Protective Service
ST Down.; ST a Week

WOULD YOU like to get a good
custom made suit or overcoat for,
say, only $40, payable at 81 a week?
1t would be pleasant, but it will be
wise to be skeptical of any salesman
who offers you such a proposition.
As the racket is currently being
practiced, the proposition is even
CLOSED up further with a promise
that if you will get seven others to
join the club you may get your suit
or coat within two or three pay
ments. It seems that, for advertis-
ing purposes, the company holds 4
drawing every week and gives away
a suit or overcoat to the lucky per-
son. Your name will be drawn soon.
The payments start, and after SIS
to $40 is paid In, you may call TO
inquire how the drawings have been
progressing. The man who answers
is bewildered and shocked. His com
pany offers no drawing. 1t is against
the law. 1t must have been that
rascally salesman they fired last
week who misrepresented the mat
ter. You will. of course, he assures
you, get your suit when the payment
period is up.
So for $40 you get a suit or coat.
1t proves to be a fair quality of tick
ing. You protest and are told that
for $40 more you can get their better
quality garment. This will go on
and on. It's a good racket-for the
racketeers.

Fix Your Roof, Mister!

DON'T TRY to solve the can't fix

eed-fixing-on-a-sunny-day dilemma
by signing a contract to have your
roof fixed by some outfit you don't
know or haven't had a chance 10
find out something about.
Reports are current of slick opera
tors who are going around promis-
ing to fix roofs as good as new. They
even give a Is or 20-year guarantee.
So they fix your roof and in six
months or less it is as porous al
ever. You attempt to enforce the
guarantee and find that they have
abandoned the company and reor-
ganized under another name. Or, If
they are still in business, they
blithely give you another 6 months

Be Sure Spray Tank
Can Stand Pressure

DON'T LET a homemade sprayer
do more than the job it is supposed
to do. In other words, avoid MAIN
ing or killing yourself.
Robert C. White, Wyoming agri-
cultural extension service engineer,
explains this statement by caution
ing operators to use a drum Oh tank
that will safely handle the pressure
developed by the outfit.
Considerable demand has arisen
for homemade spraying equipment,
he declares, particularly with the e
cent development of various chemi-
cal weed killers. The majority of
these sprayers utilize a 55-gallon OIL
drum as a tank for carrying the
spray material with a pump which
draws the solution from the barrel
and delivers it to the spray nozzle
under pressure.
Occasionally, he continues, spray
ers are built in such a am that
air OF liquid is pumped into a pres
sure tank with the sprayer utilizing
the same principles as the small
garden pressure sprayer.
If this type of construction Is
adopted, the ordinary ~55-gallon oil
drum is not a satisfactory pressure
Montana farmer-stockman., 1948-06-15

chamber, he warns, because the
standard-type barrel will bulge at
the end if about 10 pounds of pres
sure is developed; at Is pounds it
is definitely unsafe. Even rein
forced-type barrels are unsafe at
about 20 pounds.
Since spraying pressures for weed
control may run higher than the
safe limits for oil drums, a heavier
tank should be used. A 50-gallon
hot water tank with an 85-pound
working pressure is recommended.
To insure against accidents, an 85-
pound safety valve also should be
installed with this type of equip
ment.

Spray Buildings, Yards
for Insect Relief
By o. B. HITCHCOCK,
Assistant State EntomoIoqiss


IT IS DEFINITELY worthwhile
for farmers and ranchers to spray
the e around their homes and
buildings for mosquito and fly con-
troll. Even if new hordes of the
pests are blown in from surround
ing untreated areas from time to
time, the residual effect of DOT is
such that they II soon killed.
Of course, the more that cooper
ate in a control program and the
wider the req covered, the
effective the treatment will be, but
even strictly localized applications
will afford much relief.
In planning a fly and mosquito
control program, n of the first
things to consider is the elimination
of breeding places. Since mosquitoes
can breed only in water, much good
can be done by draining or filling
stagnant pools since these are ideal
breeding places. Mosquitoes often
breed in old barrels, buckets, cans,
tires, and other receptacles around
the premises. The elimination of
such breeding places is also very I'M
portant in the mosquito control
program.
Many people believe that mosqui-
toes breed in tall grass and weeds.
C,x1h -1aaDz roolxa ,Ioo ,ocf,.n
places for adult mosquitoes, which
accounts for the large numbers that
are often found in such habitats.
They will not breed in there, though,
unless there is standing water.
Flies, of course, breed in manure
piles, around garbage pals and any
place where there is decaying vege-
table or animal matter. So the first
thing is to eliminate as many of the
breeding places as possible. The
next step is to treat the inside of
all barns, sheds and other outbuild-
,ings with a residual type of DOT
spray, either the emulsion or wet
table powder formulation in water
as spray of 5 percent DOT concen-
tration, or a 5 percent solution OF
DOT in oil. These should be APP.
piled to the walls and ceilings Of
the buildings so that the surface il
well wetted.
The residual from the first appli
cation should remain effective fol
at least one month, and a SECOND
application should give effective
control for the rest of the season
ALI flies and mosquitoes resting il
these buildings will be killed whel
they light upon the treated surfaces
In fly control it will also help t.
spray around garbage cans at leas
once a week. Much good can b
done by spraying or painting tn
screens on doors and windows wit
the DOT oil solution. All weed
around the place should be ker
| down as well as possible, and tn
shrubbery around the place shoul
be sprayed with the DOT wettabl
| powder spray. The oil sprays, how
E ever, should not be used on foliag'

New Street Light

The advantages Of newly-de-

street light were explained Tues
day evening to the city council

d, said that poles and other cleo
trical equipment valued at $1,000
is on hand for the Avenue e
street lighting project.
Ham urged councilmen to in
spect the test light installed at
the corner of Washington street
and Third avenue. New type fix
lures and lamps produce approx
imately 80 per cent more light
than previous light installations
he said. The lights are now in
use in Yakima and Chehalis.
Accompanying Ham Were w. B,

Electrical Corporation, and M. a.
Collins, of the Westinghouse Sup
ply Company Of Walla Walla. The
representatives were to meet with
