SUCCESSFUL CURE FOR THE JACKRABBIT PEST On the government project in Hermiston district the new plan is working like a charm. Dairy salt and strychnine make up the agency that is depleting the ranks of the destructive ani mals. The farmers in that dis trict have placed at different points over the lane small re ceptacles, containing the poi soned salt. Br'er rabbit, always fond of salt, takes a nibble at the mineral and soon dies from the effects of the tiny bit of strychnine that he gets with the more choice morsel. As a result it is said that thousands of carcasses are lying scattered about the places where the poisoned salt has been put, seuding out anything hut a pleasant odor during the high temperature. But crops are less damaged. The proportion ol the poison is one ounce to a pouud of salt and a small vessel containing a tiny bit of the stuff is sufficient to cause the death of a large number of the pests. Pendleton Tribune.

This is a large increase in the hog shipments from i h'-i e for the same period the year before. It is now be lieved lf() cars of hogs will be shipped from Parma during the period between next September and the following June. The farmers have the largest area in corn this year that they ever had and this will mean an improved grade of hogs for the fall and winter markets. In the Biir Bend section ul- most every farmer has a corn field and a few hogs and cows, which is a combination that will bo a money maker for them. Ontario shipped 41 cars of hogs last season and the pros pects are that the coming season there will be nearly a 100 car loads shipped. Like our neighbors to the south, our farmers have also gone into the corn raising, and several of them will have over a hundred bushel crop. At Parma they have arranged for the building of a creamery, at Ny.-sa they have a line cheese factory going, and noon there will be a demand for others. Hogs, cows, alfalfa and corn will prove mortgage lifters. CLASSIFIED ADVERTISEMENTS I'.kl Ailxrlix mi mi Monty to loan Improved irr- Kalod farms. W. II. DoollttU Co.
