In an effort to increase the kill to 80 to 100 per cent by baiting the station is now adding one quart of molasses per 100 pounds of dry mix to make the bait more attractive, says County Agent Tom B. Stroup. It will take two or more applications where the infestation is heavy to get control of the grasshoppers advises George Jones. Extension Entomologist from the College of Agriculture.

The bait should be put on late in the afternoon or early in the morning for best results. There are some commercial chemicals on the market that give excellent kills when properly applied.

Here again scientific methods of Balanced Farming are adding to production and farm income in Missouri.

One way to animal and poultry diseases under Balanced harming is to rotate the stock so that clear, ground is used every year. Using clean ground alone will do more than any othc practice to eliminate parasites and diseases. One Lawrence County poultryman found that by using clean ground each year eggs laid per hen jumped from an average of 124 eggs to 229 eggs pur year. Dead losses were lower and profits were higher. Turkey raisers find that poults thrive only or fresh range that has not been run over.

Pork producers, too, have discovered that this same Balanced Farmin principle is profitable for them. Hogs gain weight faster and are ready for market quicker when raised on clean ground. Today, in 32 Missouri counties, hundreds of farmers are following a Balanced Farming plan to raise better livestock and bigger crops, to increase their income and to enjoy better all around farm living. If interested in this new system of more profitable farming, ask your county agent at your county agricultural extension office about the Balanced Farming plan.

Better living everywhere, in the city or on the farm, is possible today on! with electricity, gas and water. The investor-owned, tax pa)ing utilities companies of Missouri are proud of the fact that every month more and more farmers and their families are enjoying the labor and time saving advantages of gas, electricity and water. It is important, too, to remember that these services are coming to Mi souri farms at a lower cost than ever before. This new lower cost is due to the efficiency and sound management on the part of investor owned, electric, gas and water utilities. Prepared in the Interest of Belter Service to Our rs by.
