The damage has been so great the past season that farmers are not forgetting the seriousness of the situation and are discussing pos sible methods to be used next year to prevent such serious damage again. Some farmers In the lull districts have practically nothing left for har vest and are facing a bad situation In regard to winter's feed supplies. Many suggestions are heard regarding methods to combat the rodents on a larger scale during another spring. Some believe that It might be .pos sible to secure government aid by using groups of C. C. C. men during the bod squirrel season for distribut ing poisoned grain, gas, etc.. and thus doing a more thorough Job of cover ing Infested lands.
