depended entirely on reliet associations
for seed, and many more could not al
ford to pay the prices asked. But for this
scarcity a much greater acreage would
have. been planted. Rains have been
quite frequent in the Platte Valley.
This, in connection with the backward

This year, the grasshopper, elated
with his iormer success, makes an
early start, but we are glad to learn
that diet OF tender GRASS and grain
does not agree with him, and he is dying
by the myriad. Last years. policy was
assuredly wiser from lucustadiaa
point OF view. There was then some
bulk to the crops, and the insects
throye and grew Fat and multiplied
tneir kind to all extent that must have
embarrassed their census takers. This
year they are perishlng from their own
greediness, and II they can conveniently
Kill themselves in time, new crops may
be put IN and brought to maturity. Their
possible tate il another illustration Of
the ruin that often follows upon a. tirsS
great success. Your grasshOpper is in
sooth a remarkable being. In personal
appearance he Is not prepOsseSSing. HH
has a superabundance OF elbows and an
unseemlngly preponderance of stomach,
and his rusty claw-hammer coat serves
but 10 set of his natural ungaiIlfness.
There is a villianous lack of soul in tue
expression OF his eyes, and his counte-
nance betokens greed and grasping
ayarice. He has no emotions or senti-
menls. LIS fondness for nature Is sheer
appetite. 1t deyours the object OF iIs
love. He has a wild habit of expectora-
tion. In short, he is an unclean and uli-
lovabIe object. What was the little
monster made for, and wherefore should
mankind he the victim of his gormandiz-
ing lust? Surely, there should be some
way of destroying the pestiterous crea-
ture and preventing sucn voluminous
propagation Of the species. Are there
not birds that can be fostered in the
West, TO be fattened on these grasshop-
pers and then to offer themselves as q
grateful sacrifice to the appetite OF man
In this idea we see benefcent purpose
in the existence of even the grasshop-
per. Wheat and corn are not an accept-
able article OF food when transformed
into the substance of crawling, jumping
and devouring insects, but let II take an
other step in its transmigration and
from the insect substance be TRANSFORMS
ed into the delicate and toothsome fiesa
of a plump bird, and 1t becomes again q
grateful Offering for the human slolA.
ach. Thus might these Western farns.
ers eat up their affection and dev0Rl
