Rat Control Drive Saves Large Amount
A three month rat killing campaign by 200 Delaware County 4-H youths this spring saved farmers more than enough to pay the county extension program costs. Dr Harold Gunderson, Extension Entomologist, cited reports from County Extension Director Robert Hall showing about 15 000 rats killed. The drive, one of Town's most successful campaigns, was planned by Gunderson who noted each farm rat will contribute.

Delaware youths praised for rat control campaign gains
Gunderson reported the Delaware county effort saved farmers about 30000 dollars and will continue. A rat survey found an average of 50 rats per farm, up 15 from 1961 Clinton and Story counties. Anti-coagulant baits were used on over 800 farms, with youths also selling baits and sharing control information. Farmers and youths plan year round baiting as the main defense against losses.
