33rd 3rd Year, No. No. aa Recent surveys in the county “made by Agricultural Commissioner Leonard Lageson and Bill Heiphinstine ,farm advisor, indicate that there is going to be a .__ build-up of grasshoppers. new that the warm weather is here. Grasshoppers fed heavily on irrigated pasture and range land in the. county the. past two or three years. Even a light infestation of grasshoppers on a range or pasture with an average of 6 or 7 grasshoppers per square yard will consume grass on a 10acre area at about the same rate as a cow. Now that the native -range is drying the small grasshoppers are going to move onto the irrigated pastures, Ranchers should now be on the lookout, and--make preparations for control measures, states. Bill Helphinstine. The most feasible way to control grasshoppers on_ irrigated pastures and adjacent ground is through baiting or spraying. Bait has proved to be very satisfactory in Nevada County. An excellent bait material can be made by using 4 ounces of actual Aldrin or one pint of Aldrin material containing 2 pounds of Aldrin per gallon plus % to % gallom kerosene mixed with 100 pounds of wheat bran. The Aldrin and kerosene should be mixed together and ‘then thoroughly mixed with the bran, This can be accomplished by. spreading the bran out in a thin layer and spraying the Adldrin-kerogene mixture thoroughly over the bran. A better job of mixing can be had by» using a cement mixer and spraying the kerosene . <. and Aldrin into the mixture as it is turning. The bait should be spread 10 to 15 Ibs per acre either by hand of a broadcast spreader over the entire pasture area immediately following irrigation. It is alsa very beneficial to bait a strip about 100 feet wide in the Cameron and Collier’ Bill Would Help Mining Industry The important role played by Senator Ronald G. Cameron of Placer, Nevada,:and Sierra Counties in obtaining $139,500 in state funds for a Study of ways to improve the mining industry in the Mother Lode district was lauded by Senator Randolph Collier of Yreka. Cameron teamed up with Collier to win approval of an addition to the state budget which will finance this vitally important survey of the mining potential of the area. “Although Senator Oameron has served only a short time in the Legislature he has already proved his ability to get things done for his district,” Collier said. “His contribution toward obtaining funds for tisis project. were extremely helpful.” 5 Cameron said he feels the proposed study could open the door ‘to tremendously increased economic activity in the Mother Lode area. “The ecanomy of our area was founded on mining” Cameron declared “and anything that can be done to revive this vital industry must be done. I intend to follow this survey closely.” Student Body Of Local School Elects ‘Final election to student body offices was held at the Nevada City Elementary School on Tues’ day May 26.
