Single Copy 10 cents. From The County Agent's Office By N. C. Anderson The majority of office calls this county. Most notable damage is .ni wow enneerned with crass-, omi ring in small alfalfa fields hopper Infestations in Morrow County which seems to be quite general. The first report of any infestation here was reported from Ordnance on Juno 25. Grasshoppers there were infest ing alfalfa and row crops of seve ral of the farmers that were grow ing tty'se crops in the desert for the first time this year under sprinkle irrigation. A survey by the bureau of entomology shows that infestations were limited to private land at that time. Since then general infestations were found throughout the entire which are located adjacent, to range land or idle land where grasshoppers have hatched. Manv towns people are being plagued by them in gardens and ornamentals. On a commercial scale with any large acreage to treat, Aidrin is being used. This is a relatively new chemical which is well suit ed to grasshopper control and is being used by the U. S. Depart ment of Agriculture in all of their control work. It is used at the rate of 2 ounces per acre. Though quite expensive, a little goes a '. : : 1 What is A GOOD MOVIE? Some of our best friends and severest critics ask u3 repeated ly, "Why aren't more good movies made?" Suppose we begin by answering with a question: "What is a good movie?" There are a truckload of definitions but we'll say that funda mentally a good movie is any movie YOU like. And vice versal Some of the moviegoers are esthetes first and movie goers second. Most of the movie-going millions, however, share a mass taste in laughter and tears Yet even this mass taste varies widely. Using any stand ards, the poorest movie ever made was enjoyed by about a hundred thousand people. And the best movie ever made was disliked by an equal number. As you are aware, popular taste is a singular thing. To see individual taste at work, listen to the comments of people coming out of the theater. There's your real test. Mostly, the people in the lobby like what they've seen. If they didn't, motion pictures wouldn't have millions of custo mers after 50 years. And these are the people the motion pic ture industry aims to please. We can think of no other busi ness that tries anything like this that offers its one product to both sexes, to the business executive and bobby soxer, to the highbrow and average joe. The really astonishing point is that with a target as bread as broad cs all humanity, more movies aro applauded than disliked. Our average is darn good! No kidding there are lots of good movies. Ask the people who see 'em. long way. Where a small infes tation is for the back yard gar dener, ehlordane is the best grasshopper control insecticide. It can be bought in various forms from dust to wettable powder. It s-hould be applied according to the instructions on the container. This week, W. W. Weatherford, rancher near Lena, is spraying about 30 acres of alfalfa with Aidrin for grasshopper control. Jack Hynd is spraying small in festations at the Luekman ranch using a wettable Chlordane ma terial. He mixed it with 5 pounds of 40',v. wettable to 200 gallons of water. Visiting with Jack Hynds last week, we found that he is spray ing bis goatweed infestations at the Luekman ranch in an attempt to get rid of it. Jack says that lie does not like to have his range infested with goatweed such as is the case over cabbage hill in Umatilla County. There are sev eral neighbors of his that have infestations that he thinks would be to their advantage to control before they spread further. On Monday of this week, ha had the county weed sprayer spray all of his goatweed patches at the Luck man ranch. This is the second spraying this season. On June 8, nine colonies of Goatweed Beet les were released in that area with the hopes that they would keep this weed under control, at least until other practices were used for its control. A recent report from Umatilla County in dicates that Emil Muller, Helix rancher who has a cattle ranch en Cabbage Hill has had very successful results with goatweed beetles in that weed on that Our Lives" is not just our opinion! only picture NOTE: "The Best Years of is one of those KEST moies and this One of the most honored picture of our time ever to receive !)
