Land Board-Will
Protect Settlers
iSulom, Or. lt will be neces
sary for J. E. Morson. president
of tho Deschutes Land Com puny,
with whom tho desert lund board
has been having much trouble in
arranging datails for the protec
tion of settles in connection with
ths company's Carey Act proj
cct, to come to time and make
satisfactory agreements with the
desert land board before tbecom
Iany will be given an easement
for Crescent lake reservoir, a
necessary part of the project.
This point Is made definite and
mphatic by a letter received by
the secretary of tha lund board
from Fred Dennett, commissioner
of the general land oflice. Mr.
Donnctt states that right of way
for the reservoir site will not be
granted until investigation of the
operations, begun as a result of
Information furnished by the
governor, is completed lie inti
mates that the genera! land office
ex pouts the company to enter
into a new and more binding con
tract with the desert land board.
"If the application is approved
the company can stand on its le
gal rights and the desert land
board will have no meuns of con
trolling the company, except as
assured under the contract,"
says Mr. Dennett. "It appears
that the state board has bad con
siderable difficulty not only with
this company, but also with oth
er companies relative to their
various contracts. Accordingly
the company's application will
remain suspended, pending the
completion of" the investigation
and the adjustment of all difficul
ties between the board and the
company."

How Fanners Can
Destroy Pests
The purpose of this article is
is to supply the popular demand
for information relative to tho
most effective means of controll
ing certain crop pests iu this dis
trict. IvAiuiiTS seem especially troub
lesome in young alfalfa and it is
possible to protect small plats in
the less settled communities by
chicken fencing. Poisoning is a
very effective way to combat
these rascals, placing the poison
in rabbit runs and at field cor
ners on shingles. A teaspoonful
of salt is placed on a shingle and
powdered strychnine sprinkled
over it using a quantity equal to
half the size of a pea, slightly
moistening and then sprinkling a
trifle more salt over this.
Sage rats have given consid
erable trouble and where not too
numerous these like the rats may
be shot. Early in the season
they will eat grain poisoned with
strychnine. The most effective
treatment that we have found at
this time of year Is carbon bisulf
ide. Pour about a teaspoon ol
this poisonous liquid on some ab
sorbent, a? a piece of dry horse
dung, roll down the burrow and
plug up the holes. The liquid
evaporates rapidly and the gas
being heavier than air settles
downward, suffocating all animal
life confined.
, Caution This gas will explode
and all flames or pipes must be
kept away.
Red ants are very destructive
and have been seen to destroy as
much as one acre in twenty of
'grain, Early and frequent disc
Ing exposes and kills these and
they are very sensitive to odors,
so burying the absorbent satura
tod with carbon bisulfide in ant
hills is very 'effective iu destroy
ing tho ants. Pouring about a
tub'esnoon of kerosene in each
hill is auplher effective and cheap
method of destroying ants. They
may also be trapped by burying
bottles in the mounds so the top
ts flush with the surface.
Wike wortMS are hard, smooth,
cylindrical, reddish brown larvae
about 1 to irfehes long. They
eat the smaller stalks and" roots
of young grain and puncture the
larger ones. Late fall plowing
and relation of crops allowing
hogs to pasture on the meadows
before breaking up, and avoiding
the growing of crops subject to
injury the second year from sod.
and late spring seeding, ate
about the only things that can be
done to lessen Injury.
Cct worms. These caterpil
lars are smooth, soft bodied,
whitish to grey or brown in col
or and variously marked with
stripes or blotches. They destroy
young grain by eating the leaves
and gnawing off the stalks near
the ground at night. Pasture off
with hogs and early fall plow be
fore the insects have laid their
eggs in the rubbish. Seed late
in spring where possible for the
worms go down into the subsoil
to pupate late in spring. Mixing
one pound paris green to thirty
pounds bran and scattering along
edges of field with a drill, or
baout such plants as cabbage by
band, will be very helpful in les
sening injury.
