Over 500 pounds of the bait was sold during the time this office handl ed it. Many good reports on kills were made to this office. With the coming colder weath er rats are moving in to protec tion of farm buildings where grain and other feed is plentiful. There, rats multiply rapidly and cause much loss in damage to feed and other property to which they have access. This red squill bait is easy to use and is not poi sonous to other animals. It is sold here at cost. Use of 215-T or 2,4-D in fall, winter and early spring months on stumps will prevent resprout ing. The ester of 2,4,5-T has prov ed more effective than ester of 2,4-D on certain species and for general stump trelment a mix ture of one pint of ester of 2,4-D and one pint ester of 2.45-T in 10 gallons of kerosene, diesel or No. 2 fuel oil has been found effect ive. 2.4,5-T has been used in oil without 2,4-D and good results have been obtained on cotton wood, poison ivy, poison oak, blackberries, bramble and maple. NEWS FROM HDA'S OFFICE Enthused over study at their meeting last Wednesday, mem bers of the county home exten sion committee were enthused over the research project aimed at developing better designed and better constructed work dresses. Mrs Clara Edaburn, associate home economist, is project lead er, with Mrs. ette Frazier as research assistant. To find out what Oregon home makers want in the way of work dress design and construction, questionnaires are being mailed to various housewives throughout the state. Homemakers are asked to give their opinions on such items as best sleeve length, desir ability of belts and buttons, and faults they have noted in the con struction of ready-made dresses. Later on, housewives will be observed at work in their home by Mrs. Edaburn and Mrs. Frazier as a means of finding what parts of the dress get the most wear and strain during the normal household tasks requiring bend ing, reaching, etc. Another phase of the program calls for the home economists to make figure type descriptions as a means of better adapting dress designs to women of various pro portions. Most of the dresses and dress patterns now available on the market are designed primar ily for young women with "ideal figures" and are not suitable for mature figures, homemakers have found. Dresses of various designs and for vairous figure types will be made on the basis of these find ings and will be sent to from six to twelve selected homemakers for six month wearing tests. The homemakers will mail the dress es to the home economics depart ment for laundering and ironing to insure uniformity in that phase of test work, it is planned that the test dress es will be on display at the June 1950 meeting of the slate home economics extension council. Once the final designs have been approved, the patterns will be made available to commercial pattern companies and dress ma nufacturers. Also discussed was the Azalea House to be built on OSC campus for girls desiring to live and work in a cooperative house. Morrow county's part will be carried by the seven extension units. Mrs. Vernon Munkers, Lexington, chairman, will announce plans for fund raising soon. MERCHANTS WISE Advert ise! sf, 77 DOUBLE BARRELED C0MTEST!

V Spaur, acting state forester, any Christmas trees harvested for commercial purposes must be cut under the provisions of the Ore gon conservation act and a per mit secured prior to cutting Spaur stated that permits can be secur ed from the forestry department in Salem or from the nearest stale forestry department head quarters within the various dis tricts throughout the state. The forester also stated that the land owners permission must be se cured and his name and address included on the application filed by the Christmas tree operator. The Oregon act requires that forest lands be kept in a produc tive and growing state after the removal of timber or other forest crops. Under these provisions, the commercial Christmas tree oper ator is required to leave not less than 300 trees per acre, with 100 well distributed. Old mature seed trees may also serve as a seed source where they exist on Christ mas tree cutting a.reas. By leav ing established young growth or seed source, continued forest pro duction on the area is insured. All forest lands come within these requirements except lands which are being cleared for agricultural purposes. Mr. John Citizen, who wants to take his family out on the week end and cut his own Christmas tree is not required to obtain a permit. He must, however, first obtain the landowner's permis sion before cutting his tree. The forester was emphatic that he was not opposed to Old St. .Nick and the Christmas tree har vest. "It is a custom long estab lished, and nothing should be done to interfere with it," said Spaur. However, ihere are certain requirements which must be met if Oregon's forests are to be kept in a productive condition. The conservation act sets out these requirements, and if followed, the harvest of the trees can be in the nature of a beneficial thinning." WAKE UP BUSINESS By Advertising In This Nrwipapw A.
