Grasshopper Exterminator.


\ Journal reporter interviewed
Mr.. Lindley, of the firm of Keefer Il
Lindley, yesterday afternoon, on the
grasshopper question 1t Is we'll
known that Mr.. L. is largely interest
ed in all that pertains to Lincoln and
the country tributary to it, and par
ticularly with the farming interests;
for many weeks he has been endeav-
oring to devise some means to pre-
vent the devastation Of our crops,
should the G. Hoppers pay us sec
ond visit in any great force. Last
week he heard of a certain piece of
barley several miles from the city,
that was infested with the pests; arm
ed with Il few gallons of coal oil and
a common garden sprinkling pot he
visited the field and commenced OPP
erations, and the result, we can as
sure our farmers, was most satistacto-
ry. The field upon which he expert
mented, contained forty acres of as
nice looking barley as was ever seen
in this country; for this reason, per
haps, the only grasshoppers in the
county that we have heard of, took
fancy to it, and for time threatened
to devour it. With the sprinkling
pot before mentioned, he saturated
the outskirts of the field, and then
spread it over the field, and then
spread it over the growing grain, and
the result was all that could be de-
sired; wherever the liquid touched
the locusts, they fell instantly dead.
The fumes of the oil, he informed us,
put period to their existence about
as quick as though they had been
completely submerged in the liquid.
With about 4 teaspoonful of oil, he
dipped at least singly, 500 hoppers,
and all passed in their "checks" in
stanter. Mr.. l.. is of the opinion
that with ten gallons of coal oil and
a common garden sprinkler, he could
save any eighty acre small grain
field i'll the country.
Yesterday afternoon he borrowed
one of Babcock's Extinguishers with
which to try another experiment.
The only difficulty he now expert
ences is, in throwing a spray of oil
instead of a stream. In other words
he wants 4 machine that will scatter
the kerosene over the field in some
thing like an Oregon mist style, and
he thinks the Babcock Extinguisher
will perform Tie task.
The gentleman who owns the field
upon which he experimental yester-
day informed him that ut a late hour in
the afternoon the grain was still moist
with oil and that it was sure death
for any hopper that alighted upon
blade of it-that the ground was
strcwn with the dead and now that
he had learned the remedy he was
confident that the field Of barley
would be harvested, threshed and
sold providing there was coal oil in
the city and he had money to pay for
it. We give these few suggestions
for what they are worth, and should
the pest visit this section Of the
country again we hope our farmers
will apply the new remedy.

Literally, the Bread of Life-A Bible
Baked.

There is Bible in Lucas county,
Ohio, says the Unitarian Herald,
which was preserved by being baked
in a loaf of bread. 1t now belongs
to a Mr.. Shebolt, who is a native of
Bohemia, Austria. This baked Bible
was formerly the property of his
grandmother, who was a faithful
Protestant Christian. During one
of the seasons when the Roman
Catholics were prosecuting the
Protcstants in that country, a law
was passed that every Bible in the
hands of the people should be given
up to the priests, that it might be
burnt. Then those who loved their
Bibles had to contrive different plans
in order to try and save the precious
book. When the priests came it
was baking day. Mrs. Shebolt, the
grandmother of the present owner of
the Bible, had a large family. She
had just prepared great batch Of
dough, when she heard that the
priests were coming; she took her
precious Bible, wrapped it carefully
up, and put it in the center of huge
mass Of dough, which was to fill her
largest bread tin, and slowed it away
in the oven and baked it. The
priests came and searched the house
carefully through, but they did not
find the Bible. When the search
was over, and the danger passed, the
Bible was taken out of the loaf and
found uninj
