FARM CO-OPERATIVE DIVISION A MESSAGE TO EVERY MEMBER. UMATILLA COUNTY ORGANIZED IN RODENT CONTROL CAMPAIGN Again this year Umatilla county is experiencing a large scale, highly organised campaign for the control of rodents. The program this year is located over the entire area of some 35,000 acres included in the Wild Horse Erosion project. Last year, the granges in the vicinity of Ukiah and Pilot Rock cooperated with the coun ty agent’s office in similar campaigns against ground squirrels. More than 50.000 acres were included In the 1935 campaigns. The work on the Wild Horse pro ject is being handled under the di rect supervision of the Biological Survey of the U. 8. Department of Agriculture and the most approved methods are being used. Contrary to popular belief, the best use of squir rel poison is made when scattered on the surface of the ground. In this manner less bait is required to ef fect control, and the percentage of kill of squirrels is higher. When the bait is scattered somewhat after the broadcast seeding fashion, there is little or no danger from the stand point of destruction of birds. A limit ed quantity of the poisoned oats is scattered around the burrows and runways of the squirrels. The meth- od not recommended by the Biolo- gical Survey are those of placing the bait below the surface of the ground in the burrows, or putting it in piles on top the ground. Both these methods are very wasteful of the bait and the latter offers the possi bility for the destruction of birds. Where the bait is placed down the burrows, it Is very evident that the movement of the squirrel into and out of Its nest will result In covering by means of the loose earth of much of the bait, and otherwise making it unpalatable. In the next place, squirrels are not accustomed to finding their food in such places and their habit is to come out of the ground with their heads up, with the first thought being for any dang- er which may be near, When once on top the ground, they begin look ing for food. For those farm lands outside the "‘I1A Horse protect, the government formula squirrel bait is available un- Mer a program of distribution by the county agent’s office, the poison be ing located at various points in all of the towns in the county. The bait is sold at cost, and has proven high- ly satisfactory in the hands of users who follow the recommended prac- tices.

CREDIT UNIONS- FOR FARM COOPERATIVES. This article is condensed from an address to the Cooperative League Congress, by C. H. LaSelle, manager of the Insurance department of the Indiana Farm Bureau Cooperative association. "The promotion and organization of Credit Unions in the United States in the past ten years has been devoted chiefly to industrial, mer cantile, religious and racial groups, and there has been little develop ment of the Credit Union plan in agricultural communities, and none whatever within organized farm groups. Taking the Credit Union to Farm. In 1931 Mr. I. H. Hull, Manager of the Indiana Farm Bureau Coop erative Association, Inc., visioned the possibilities of this plan among the farmers of Indiana and decided that it was just as feasible for the farm ers as it had been for the laborers and employees of industrial corpora tions. He decided that the plan should be tried out within these .'arm groups; and, with the coopera tion of the Credit Union National Extension Bureau, four counties were selected to try out this plan. Meetings were called In these coun ties, the plan presented to the mem- bers, applications for charters ob Grange Dance Saturday. tained, and they were organized There will be the usual Grange with just a few dollars paid in on dance at Stanfield Grange hall Sat urday evening, April 27th.
