Milk Prices Reduced KLAMATH FALLS (UPI) -r- Milk prices went down one cent a quart at the retail level here this week. An official said the reason for' the cut was to meet the price set by Safeway stores. , roadside ditches, sloughs, log ponds, and about 5,000 catch- basins at street corners. The main area Warren is concerned with is the valley stretch from Junc tion City to Oakridge. In about three weeks summer crews will begin working to eliminate mosquitoes. But Warren emphasized that each homeowner can help -in the work. He said that mosquitoes breed in stagnant water only, and it only takes a small amount to produce several hundred of the pesky creatures. It is advisable to eliminate any standing water around the home. Openings on cesspools and septic tanks should be closed tightly, lawns should not be over irrigated, and bird bath and swimming pool water should be changed frequently. It is important to do these things, Warren said, because it only takes j five or ten days to produce mosquitoes In the proper kind . of stagnant water. "And without (standing water, it's Im possible to breed mosquitoes'," he stressed.
