FEDERAL RE• UL.4kTIONS
FOR BOAT OPF.RATORS
As most pleasure boat operators
sooner or later cruise to places
out of their home waters, Dick
Saeger, of Saeger's Motor Shop
on Hillcrest, suggests that they be
aware of Federal Boating Act
of 1958. This is the first major
measure affecting recreational
boaters in 18 years and the first
overhauling of small boat registra-
tion system since 1918. The new
law is designed to provide a state,
overated_ system of pleasure boat
numbering and provide a system of
accident reporting investigations.
Saeger, Johnson Motors dealer
here, recommends that boat oper-
ators contact their state repre-
sentatlves who have received co-
pies of a model state law.

'Coun00r00 Ro,00ds"
By CHARLES PECK
County Extension Agent
It's curious how some animals
affect people.
Not long ago a lady called the
office and asked how to get rid of
bats wlfich have moved into her
summer cabin. This call reminded
us of an incident several years
back:
A LADY 'ITH the physique
of a wrestler galked into a county
agent's office. She was almost dis-
tracted. Several bats had set up
hosuekeeping in the attic of her
house. Every once in a while one
would fly downstairs to see what
was going on. When he came
swooping by, catching the lady
unawares, she v/otlld screaln and
dodge, grab a handy mop or broom
and fan the air with all her migh t
(which was considerable) trying to
swat him down.
One night a bat flew downstairs
looking for company. The lady
snatched up the first convenient
article to throw at him. In her
excitement she selected the lid-
lifter on the cook stove, hauled
off and let drive, She missed the
bat. The lid-lifter sailed across
the room, taking her husband up
against the side of his head, knock-
ing him as cold as a sugar-cured
ham, When her husband came to,
she said that they had an awful
r0W.
The lady did not mind the fight

so much because a good scrap now
and then cleared the air and
cheered her up. But she said those
bats were about to worry her to
death. She was afraid that the
next time one came around she
was liable to grap up something
more lethal to throw than a lid-
lifter. Being jugged for man-
slaughter was likely to ruin her
reputation some.
With all the scientific knowledge
oozing around Mason County, it iS
rather belittling to mention that
bats are mammals. That is, they
suckle their young and have true
hair covering their bodies.
OUR NATIVE BATS are insect
eaters. With their marvelous rad-
ar system they catch flying in-
sects in the dead of night. Though
hats are quite beneficial most of
the time, they can infest homes
with lice, fleas and bed bugs
which, it is said, they carry fairly
abundantly in their pelts. Isn't it
rather odd that though bats are
such efficient catchers of flyin
insects, they are unable to ria
their own hides of crawling vet-
mine ?
Bats are fairly easy to exter-
minate when they have found com-
fortable lodging in a summer
home. During the off season, stop
up all holes of entry such as brok-
en windows, cracks under the
eaves and the fireplace opening.
Then fumigate with calcium cya-
nide gas which can be purchased
from moat garden supply dealers.
CALCIUM CYANIDE gas is
very poisonous. Any house fumi-
gated with it should be well venti-
lated before entry.
The garden season is just around
the corner. Already "green
thumbs" are living in that upper
atmosphere which is inhabited by
those who dream of fresh vegeta-
bles and lovely blossoms from the
little patch behind the house.
We wish to remind you of the
garden booklet and guide which is
free for the asking at the Ex-
tension office. You will find it
right down your alley because it

COMMUNICATION WITH YOUt
'Coun00r00 Ro,00ds"
By CHARLES PECK
County Extension Agent
It's curious how some animals
affect people.
Not long ago a lady called the
office and asked how to get rid of
bats wlfich have moved into her
summer cabin. This call reminded
us of an incident several years
back:
A LADY 'ITH the physique
of a wrestler galked into a county
agent's office. She was almost dis-
tracted. Several bats had set up
hosuekeeping in the attic of her
house. Every once in a while one
would fly downstairs to see what
was going on. When he came
swooping by, catching the lady
unawares, she v/otlld screaln and
dodge, grab a handy mop or broom
and fan the air with all her migh t
(which was considerable) trying to
swat him down.
One night a bat flew downstairs
looking for company. The lady
snatched up the first convenient
article to throw at him. In her
excitement she selected the lid-
lifter on the cook stove, hauled
off and let drive, She missed the
bat. The lid-lifter sailed across
the room, taking her husband up
against the side of his head, knock-
ing him as cold as a sugar-cured
ham, When her husband came to,
she said that they had an awful
r0W.
The lady did not mind the fight

he, Mr. Larson, could do the dis-

a dog catcher. No budget for it,
the police have other duties to per-

The pup ditchers, if you didn't
want the pups, why didn't you
dispose of them when first born,

so much because a good scrap now
and then cleared the air and
cheered her up. But she said those
bats were about to worry her to
death. She was afraid that the
next time one came around she
was liable to grap up something
more lethal to throw than a lid-
lifter. Being jugged for man-
slaughter was likely to ruin her
reputation some.
With all the scientific knowledge
oozing around Mason County, it iS
rather belittling to mention that
bats are mammals. That is, they
suckle their young and have true
hair covering their bodies.
OUR NATIVE BATS are insect
eaters. With their marvelous rad-
ar system they catch flying in-
sects in the dead of night. Though
hats are quite beneficial most of
the time, they can infest homes
with lice, fleas and bed bugs
which, it is said, they carry fairly
abundantly in their pelts. Isn't it
rather odd that though bats are
such efficient catchers of flyin
insects, they are unable to ria
their own hides of crawling vet-
mine ?
Bats are fairly easy to exter-
minate when they have found com-
fortable lodging in a summer
home. During the off season, stop
up all holes of entry such as brok-
en windows, cracks under the
eaves and the fireplace opening.
Then fumigate with calcium cya-
nide gas which can be purchased
from moat garden supply dealers.
CALCIUM CYANIDE gas is
very poisonous. Any house fumi-
gated with it should be well venti-
lated before entry.
The garden season is just around
the corner. Already "green
thumbs" are living in that upper
atmosphere which is inhabited by
those who dream of fresh vegeta-
bles and lovely blossoms from the
little patch behind the house.
We wish to remind you of the
garden booklet and guide which is
free for the asking at the Ex-
tension office. You will find it
right down your alley because it
