The intelligence of scent Of the red
legged grasshopper enables it to select
its food while on the wing in the air,
where, by some process of signaling
known only to itself, it gathers great
army of its kind to descend with mass
ed force on the field beneath when 40
acre field Of corn will only afford them

Last year the grasshopper reports sent
to the University of Nebraska at Lin
coin caused apprehension of an inva-
sion this year, as great quantities Of
eggs had been deposited in the soil over
large area of country, and those eggs
are expected to furnish an army of ac-
tive locusts, as they are technically
named.

In Utah they have what they call a

man, woman and child takes part in
the performance. 1t consists of draw
ing ropes, held taut by persons at each
end, across the back, over the fields of
grain, SO that Mr. Grasshopper shall
not find any room for the sole of his
foot, and they keep this seesaw up un-
til he is starved out.
No doubt the agricultural college will

THE ARTISTS PRIVILEGE
No Phase of Life Which the Realist May
Not Touch.

No Phase of Life Which the Realist May
Not Touch.
In defense of his literary methods
Arthur Morrison. the English novelist,
writes Z. the New Review:
81 have been asked, in print, if ]
think that there is no phase of life
which the artist may not touch. Most
certainly | think this; more, know it
1t is the artists privilege to seek his
material where be thinks we'll, and it
is no mans privilege to say him nay.
If the community has left horrible
places and horrible lives before his
eyes, then the fault is that of the com
munity, and to picture these places and
these lives becomes not merely his priv
ilege, but his duty 1t was my fate to
encounter a place in Shoreditoh where
children were born and reared in cir
cumstances that gave those children no
reasonable chance of living decent lives,
where they were born foredamned to a
criminal or semicriminal career. 1t
was my experience to learn the ways of
this place, to know its inhabitants, to
talk with them, eat, drink and work
with them.
For the existence of this place and
for the evils it engendered the COM
munity was responsible, and every
member of the community was and is
responsible in his degree. II had been
rich man, / might have attempted to
discharge my peculiar responsibility in
one way; if | had been statesman,
might have tried another Being neither
of these things, but simple writer Of
fiction, endeavored to do my duty by
writing a tale wherein hoped to bring
the condition Of this place within the
comprehension of others. There are
those who say l should have turned
away my eyes and passed by ON the
other side, ON the very respectable
precedent of the priest and the Levite
in the parable. .
