throughout this region began to take flight or
Friday last, and immense swarms of them were
observed in the air, moving in northwest d.

to travel northwest, but occasionally untaYor'

Very few of the pests now remain 10 this place.

southwestern Kansas are to the effect that very
few of them have descended, aud consequently
the splendid crops throughout that vast region
are as promising as before the locusts came,
and in fully fve-sixths of the State the pros
meet for 40 immense harvest was never more
favorable. 1t is estimated that the Arkansas
valley will produce 1000 600 bushels ofwheat,
northwestern Kansas as much more q rye, bar
lev and oats, aud the corn harvest promises te
he equally as large. The devastatons of the
locusts have been confined to an area OF about
FORTY miles 10 breadth through the eastern part
of this State, and 10 portions Of that such de-
struction of crops has been tota but 10 prob
ably two-thirds of it only partial. The farm
ers. whose fields have been devastated, are
now busy planting corn, buckwheat, potatoe
and other crops that may be put in in June,
and if the ocusts stay away they expect to har-
vest fair yield. 1t is urged that the general
government should appoint commission to
study the habits of the locusts; to ascertain
whence they came from and where they have
gone, and obtain full information concernioe
Them. It is known that all the locusts Leaving
this country were covered with parasites, and
il i, believed, that the parasites destroy them
bu. there is very general feeling that too ut
tie is known Of the pests, and that 1t is the duty
of the Government to appolst competeno
commission for the purpose of studying then
habits. Senator ingalls, has telegraphed &C
the Secretary of War asking him to direct re
military and signal officers throughout tue
northwest to observe and report the movements
of the locusts
