warfare against the 'hoppers, is very scarce
Many farmers have not sown any, and most
all have made some reservation tor the pur-
pose Of taking the chances OH some late
sowing. To these the prospect is fair. The
young 'hoppers, having come out much
earlier than common, will get their growth
and take their departure earlier, which will
allow time for late sowing to mature. We
have seen good quality of wheat grown
on fresh land that was sown as late as the
25th of May, and oats will often mature
when sown even later than this. A diligent
effort will protect many fields that are now
just up, since the 'hoppers are so young,
and by the time they become able to ferry a
good-sized irrigating ditch the grain will
have such start that they will go for fields
less advanced. Those who have adopted
the plan of waiting must wait week longer
to,be safe.

THE prospect OF a prosperous season to
the montana farmer is not so good at pres
ent writing as it has been for mouth past.
We advised early sowing in order to getthe
benefit OF the moisture, and with the hope
that the grain thus sown would be too far
advanced to be destroyed by the 'hoppers,
but contrary to the general rule the ''pesky
things are out month in advance of ior-
mer years, and early sowing is in great dam
ger. Those who, had the ground ready and
rot grain in as soon as it was sufficiently
,hawed, have some fields which are, looking
we'll. That which was little later did not
come up ut once, on account of its being too
dry, and the irrigation has had a tendency
e check it, until it is now only just peeping
