The Gr.sshopper scourgc In Ottertail Co.


Saturday aud met Prof. Otto Lugger there, and
together they inspected the grasshopper district,
pursuant TO instructions from Gov. Merriam,
who has put the management Of the work Of ex.
termination in the hands Of Capt. Chase with
Instructions u spend SO 600, or as mnch Of that
sum as may be necessary, to wipe out the pest.
Capt. Chase returned Thursday and in response
10 questioning gave the following particulars Of
the situation:
I'VE got to work Sunday and drove many
miles IN the infested district, inspecting fields in
every direction. The eggs are thickest in last
years stubble, and there Is sprinkltng of them
III bare patches In the timothy fields and in the
stubble OF two years ago. After looking the
ground over as carefully and thoroughly as pos
aible. We went to work early Monday morning
and set . many men to ploughipg as applied for
work. Our plan Is to plough the last year stub.
BILE first and after that 60 into the timothy and
two year old .stubble. We found no eggs to
speak Of anywhere else than OH these three
classes Of ground. The theory Island believe
it to be the correct one-that when the 'hoppers
Matched last year they moved into the standing
grain and began 70 eat. When the time to lay
eggs arrived they did not 60 away from where
they had been feeding, but hunted up bare
spot and there deposited their eggs, That would
account fer most of the eggs being found in last
years stubhle. In the main the people are will.

when we tackle piece ofland we like to finish
II at once ana know that 1t Is done-hence the
men generally work In squads. Well presently,
the workers came back and told me that the
owner would not let them on his premises say
Ing that he would do his own ploughing pres

where as long as possible aud keep his OWE land
unploughed. and then, when the work was
about done, turn In and plough that himself

an eye witness Of !he late eruption Of the
volcano of Colima This volcano hae its
crater at an elevation of II 900 feet above
the sea level, and is very active, Intern t
tently throwing up column of smoke aud
red hot aches hundreds of feet in the air.
These spasmodic ernpiicns occur about ten
or twelve times day and are followed by
reports similar to the discharge of artillery.
A few days before the earthquake last month
the volcano vomited forth dense black
smoke that hung like pail over the
country for miles around. This phenom-
enou lasted for several days and was
accompanied at intervals by showers CT red
hot ashes which descended upon its side. L.

Jog thrown out, 80 the red hot eshes mako

one.
