REAL PROGRESS IN
DIGGER POISONING
The squirrel work in Polk county
has reached such a stage that no man
can in justice to his community fail
to participate in it. County Leader
C. C. Gardner put it squarely in a
letter to the few land owners who
have done nothing to this date.
"The few men who have not taken
action to this time, I want to urge to
recognize and become a part of this
movement. The very essence of this
squirrel control project, is gettinei
every one in and busy at the
same time. Aa a matter of self
protection your neighbors want you
m on this work. Just so long as you
breed squirrels for the rest of the
community, just so long are the ef
forts of those neighbors hopeless.
Control never will be possible until
you care for your lands as they care
for theirs. Without your help we will
be fighting diggers for a hundred
years help us out by regular and
complete poisoning of your property

The Buena Vista men are going
after the dijrsrers' in effective style,
according to Committeeman J. R. Loy
who reports. "Renters have in an
cases' procured the poison and signt
fied their willingness to get rid of
the digger squirrel."
"I find that barley will kill the
squirrels," A. Hiebenthal of the Lon
cord district, mentioned recently. Mr.
Hiebenthal is one of the several who
"had to be shown," but went ahead
and gave the county poison a thoro

You Save
a Month?
iVERYONE who is earning a fair income knows
IT that he or she can save $10 a month, even in these
high cost of living days, and not miss the amount
laid by.
What would you gain by 'doing tjiis simple and
easy thing? What results would follow which would
make this systematic practice worth while?
Supposing that you held back $10 from your earn
ings each month and placed the amount where it would
earn for you at the rate of 8 a year, and re-invested
the income from your accumulation semi-annually? Do
you realize that in 25 years you would have acquired ap
proximately $9,160?
Of this comfortable little fortune of $9,160, only
$3,000 would represent the $10 laid by each month. Over
$6,000 would be the interest or dividends your money
earned for you while you were accumulating it.
Just plain, systematic saving and sound investing
are all you need to insure prosperity and independence,
in the years to come.
