of the interesting features of the
concert given by Miss Frederike

the Monday Musical club of the
Neighborhood club.
These old songs were never real
ly formally composed, that is the
melodies were never originally set
down upon paper and learned by
the singers; Instead they were gra
dually brought Into being as a re
sult of the negro' natural desire
to sing. Some sprang Into being
amid the Intense fen or of a reviv

sent out, it like the other poison
being ha mlled without profit by a
store keeper in each town. Hoy

contrasting strongly with the de
pridations of last year. The wea
ther last year was much more fa
vorable for the increase of squir
rels than was the cool and rainy
weather of this spring, and the
farmers by taking advantage of
this fact, have reduced the dam
age to a smaller proportion.
Northeastern Oregon is the site
or the principal effort against the
red diggers. Half of the poison
distributed in the state has been
in the four countries of this sec
tion. 63. tint) pounds of poison being
sent out this year. Conditions are
more favorable for the animals, us
there exist scab land and timber
areas which provide breeding plac
es for the rodents. ' , .Narrow val
leys with agricultural land adja
cent to their uncultivated homes
provide suitable circumstances fori
their depridutions. The object of
the work or the Mlologlcal Survey
is to control the rodents in the re
stricted areas so that there will be
no economic loss, it is not con
sidered possible to exterminate the
pests.
The most common offender is
the .Oregon ground .squirrel, or
.sage rat. - These animals thrive in
scab land in the valley or dry tiMls.
The larger Columbian ground
squirrel lives In or at the edge of
timber but is found in the valley
occasionally. Experiments on this
