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.

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-
