Two HUNDRED BUSHELS OF CR1ck
Ers.-ln Bull Run Valley, Nevada,
the crickets have played sad havoc
with the growing crops. The ugly
pests attacked one wheat field of thirty
acres. and in an hour destroyed the
whole crop eating the stalks of close
to the ground, and then marched on to
other conquests Millions Of crickets
that have been killed strew the ground
for miles around, while vast numbers
found their way into the streams, and
have impaired a most disagaeeable
favor to the water, rendering it unfit
for drinking.
A novel means Of cleaning out crick
cts is the sewing together Of three
gunny sacks, leaving small holes in the
bottom one for the egress of water.
This large sack is attacked to the end
of a sluice box, placed so that the wa
ter will run into it. The people then
assemble. armed with bells and boughs
and with a great noise drive the crick
cts into the stream, which swiftly car
ries them down through the sluice box
into the bag, and there they are speed
lily drowned. At Painters ranch few
days ago there was grand "drive,"
the result being seventy-6ve sacks full
or about 225 bushels of crickets.-

An eastern journal, speaking Of the

NAV he ,n,do in tho we.t sava.

An eastern journal, speaking Of the
safe and profitable investments thst
may be made in the west says:
Western farm property has depreoi-
ated less than any other in the country,
and western city property. in view OF
the sure growth Of such cities, has
generally deprecated less than othe,
securities, SO that agents who are per-
sonalIy acquainted with the property
have no difficulty IN finding ample
security. Next, as one Of the insur-
ance companies states, the loans of any
company depend upon the fidelity and
capacity Of the agent selected. But
those who have had the longest exper
ience and who have most thoroughly
proved their capacity, are men who
have given years to this branch of
business, and by care and fidelity have
built up an honorable reputation.
Residing in, aud being thoroughly
acquainted with the region in which
their loans are placed, many of them
have met with very remark able sue
cess in escaping the risks which attend
almost every investment. In these
times counties and cities repudiate,
Great railway, loan and other corpora
tions sink Unexpectedly. Even the
credit Of the United States is assailed
in political strife. But not one but
many agents are able to boast that not
a dollar has been lost by loans through
them.
