"One of the greatest hazards to field workers moving irrigation pipe is accidental contact with high voltage overhead power lines," Davis said. During the past eight June 8 Mr. and Mrs. Lauritz Christensen, Parma, boy; Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Higgins. Ontario, girl; Mr. and Mrs. Forest Riley, Ontario, boy. years 14 fatal accidents attributable to electrocution from contacting overhead wires with irrigation pipes have been reported to the PUC. Accidents are typically caused by workers raising the pipe to shake out debris or small animals that may be inside. While the worker is watching the low end of the pipe, the opposite end swings high enough to cross or touch a powerline. The Commissioner urged farmers to conduct education programs for their employees outlining safe procedures for handling irrigation pipe in areas crossed by high voltage lines.

Cherry Trees Need Spraying Home owners who have cherry trees will want to spray now for cherry fruit fly control Word received from the Payette County fly trapping program indicates that flies are emerging now. Control can be had by spraying with Malathion or Diazinon or Methoxychlor Do not use sticker-spreader with either treatment. Repeat treatment in 7 to 10 days. Do not spray Diazinon within 10 days of harvest or Malathion within 3 days or Methoxy chlor within 7 days. Cherry fruit fly larvae enter developing fruit and render it unfit for use. Early, thorough treatment is important to get good protection.
