A meeting was heir5 in the Community
Hall Wednesday night, 8:00, at
which Er. J.C. Chamberlain was
g^est speaker.
T. s Entomologist explained the re
sults of his experiments-with var
ious commer cl&U insecticides and
and also what his findings to date
were on the cutworms found in the
Valley.
He pointed out that the cutworm
can still cause serious damage to
crops in years to come even though
they did very little damage this
year. The climate, parasite and
use of poison boit, all help to
keep this pest unter control.
Er. Chamberlain is planning to re
turn to Forest Grove, Oregon in the
near future. From there he will
gc to Washington and make his re
port of work done here to the Fedv
eral Bureau of Entomology and
Plant Quarantine.
We have hopes that Lr. Chamberlain
can return next year and continue
his work in the Valley.

will be held in the Grange Hall
Friday, October 6. Recreation will
begin at 4:00 and will continue
until 5:30 F.M. Then a picnic
supper will be given. From 6:30
