Farmers are hopeful of a crop this year
Hopper signs are not alarming. The most Sc
rious trouble ahead is lack of seed to SOW the
tilablelan Many farmers are without seed
or means to purchase. The consequence IS
that nearly one-h half of the tilable land in this
town will remain unseeded. Over 1000 acres
of land was broken last season, which, with
the 8, l65 under cultivation, makes over 1900
acres to SOW and plant. To meet this require
ment there is only 1000 bushels on hand fol-
seed. bread, and feed for teams. If any one
can see light ahead in this, their vision is bet
ter than mine.
Would it not have been better fol
those people to have had usury law
years ago? Can the state permit its
producing class to be reduced to such {
condition? Think of it! Two thousane
bushels of grain on hand where six o.
seven thousand are required tor seee

hat and about the size of sorghum seed
and like sorghum it is said the hopper
does not relish it ;-had raised peas in
Vermont, sowed them early the earlier
the better-would SOW oats and peas and
plant pampas, sorghum, and corn.
Henry Hodson related his experience
in securing two crops in one season ; he
and others caught 200 bushels Of hop>
pers on q five acre piece of land and
afterwards threshed 500 bushels of ,oats
of the same piece, while all around was
barren and scorched as if by fire.
M. Tusler was going to try what viz.
tue there was in sewing mixed grain, the
hoppers would take their choice and
leave the balance, he hoped they would
be liberal with him.
w. M. James Hodson welcomed 1850
bushels of them to hospitable graves
with not bloody but stained hands, and
was always ready to consign them to as
low a region as possible when an op-
portunity offered.
F. O. Torrey prognesticated that it it
rained to morrow, the first day Of March.
he would SOW wheat and other grain in
due season. and expect to get good
crop. II the wind is from the south it is
\ sure indication of a wet spring. so
wet that there will be no show tor hop
pers to live, he never knew it to fail but
II the first day of March was dry and tair
he wonld not SOW and predicted no crop.
| (Note; March 1st there was wind and
rain from south.)
Luke Love noticed that in taking hold
of the hopper by the leg and pinching it.
they unjoint themselves at will, and par
with their legs or joints. he thought
they might with propriety be called il
honor Of the High Joint Commission, OF
vice versa.
Charles Wolf said the bigi hoppers att
the little hsppers when they conld catct
them, they did not to his knowledge
suffer any of their kin to be manned OF
crippled, they were cared for. They
acted like sharp civilized people do;-
the unfortunate were gobbled up: whel
they could not help themselves, the,
were taken in. B. E. Drake was not a
sanguine as some of his brothers ant
sisters, |past experience had weakened
his faith in sowing grain, but he had
good report of his pumpkin patch o
! about an acre, the hoppers cleaned out tn
corn. but left the pumpkins, he gathered
ten big wagon loads of them.
