MEDFORD DAILY TRIBUNE, MED FORD, OltHOOX. MONDAYU'd UST 17. ISMS. 3 HOPPERS BAD? - mm Tiimrun Dill lUKIVtld McCray Has New Way of Ridding Young Orchards of Grasshoppers Two million sovon hundred forty-two thousand grasa hoppors in two mouths is the record claimed by V. C. MeOng, manager of tho Fish Lake Pitch Co., for his flock of turkeys. Ho claims to have solved the puzzle of freeing orchards from the destructive posts mid at the same time made thorn commercially pforitable. "The company 'a orchard cast of the city is the finest looking young orchard in the entire valley' said Mr. McCray. "The grasH hoppers kept the trees free of leaves last year in spite of tho nett ling and paper hags, hut this year, the turkeys are keeping the trees unharmed by the hoppers. ' Grant hoppers are thicker along the desert' than any other place. I bought 11 flock of 4f7 turkeys and the way they go tif twrth' hoppers is ft wonder. They just mow a clean sweep through the pests. I estimate a hundred hoppers a day tho average eapacity of the aver age turkey though if they could get more down, they would. Why at night tho birds aro H 'swelled- up and the hoppers are actualy sticking out of their mouths, which they can't find room for below. The birds are the fattest ever and will sol) well for the fall market. 4'I predict that in another year, every ore hard 1st will have his flock of turkeys and then it is good bye hopper;!.
