Vernonia Auto Co. “A Safe Place to Trade” Phone 342 Stockmen Asked To Demonstration Columbia county stockmen and dairymen will see how to control cattle grub and lice at a demon stration on the Joe Fisher ranch in Scappoose on February 3, be ginning at 1:30 p.m., according to W. G. Nibler, county agent. The Fisher ranch is located on U. S. 30 two miles north of Scappoose. Both hand methods and power equipment for applying insect icides to control these pests will actually be demonstrated on live stock and materials used will be discussed. Cattle grub and lice cost the American farmer well over $200,- 000 a year in reduced milk produc tion, lower gains and loss in qual ity of meat. Control methods are not difficult and at present milk, meat and feed prices, good returns can be obtained by controlling these pests. Cattle grub are now appearing on the backs of beef and dairy animals. These pests do a great deal more damage than is in dicated since they spend six or seven months burrowing in the flesh of the animals.

F CRT OF T/MBEK. AHHUALL'S Agent Urges Pasture Visit The value of subclover for pas ture is being well demonstrated by the planting on the county fairgrounds at Deer Island. Coun ty agent W. G. Nibler who has been watching this pasture sug gests that farmers arrange to visit the fairgrounds soon and look at this subclover. Ed Howe, caretaker will be glad to show folks around and tell them how much feed it has been furnishing. The clover was eeded several years ago and is getting thicker every year. Each year during the dry summer period plants die after setting many seeds which are buried in the ground. The sub clover now seen in the pastures at the fairgrounds are plants that came from seeds sprouted by the fall rains. This pasture furnishes fair amounts of feed in the fall and early winter and furnishes excellent feed during the spring and early summer. Best success in getting stands of subclover have been from early fall seedings put in by September, 15 or from late spring seedings made in June. Seeding in March, April and May have not become well established. Some seedings made in February or early March have done well and Nibler advises people seeding pasture land in these early months to include a little subclover in the mixture.

FOR CLASSIFIEDS THAT GET RESULTS!—THE EAGLE The Sundland Elec. & Appliance Salutes Hotpoint On Its Move To Curb Inflation By Reducing Appliance Prices NOW! We Are Proud to Join Hotpoint—One of the Nation’s Largest Appliance Manufac turers—in the Fight to Preserve the Pur chasing Power of the American Dollar by Announcing Price Cuts of As Much As 10% on America’s Finest Electric Ranges, Refrigerators, Disposalls & Water Heaters. Inflation is very much like the weather in that everybody talks about it, but nobody does anything about it. But now the Sundland Store is joining with Hotpoint—builder of Amer ica’s finest electric appliances—in doing something about it . . . namely, reducing prices on electric ranges, refrigerators, dis posalls and water heaters. Price reductions at a time like this when appliances like these are so scarce is news in itself. But all the more note worthy is the fact that these price reductions—which run as high rs $20 on some models—are made in the face of the biggest demand for Hotpoint products in the company’s history. Certainly, this is proof that this move is made purely in the public’s interest. We consider it an outstanding example of the kind of business statesmanship that has made America the country that it is today and the kind that will continue to lead the way to future greatness. The Sundland Store heartily subscribes to this courageous move of Hotpoint’s . . . and is glad to be the first in Vernonia and Mist in this crusade to cut the cost of living. y Sundland Electric & Appliance 786 Bridge Street Vernonia SflXHXHXMXKZMXHXHZ^XKZHX^XMXHSMXKXWXHXH» H M X H H H SPRING FARM AND GARDEN NEEDS 14-TOOTH LUX MORCROP FERTILIZER 50-lbs............... $2“ BOW RAKES..............
