duced as good an example of pure and
vigorous modern English prose as has
been given to the public in years, yet
who is he? One of the results of writ.

of the writer.

sUNspoTs AND GRAssHoPPERs
French Professor Girard Throws
Light Upon a Strange scien-
tinc Subject.

Though much damage has been
caused during recent years by grass
hoppers in Algeria. South America,
parts of France and other places, no ef-
fective method of exterminating them
has yet been discovered. Prof. Giard,
however, of the sorbonne, in Paris, now
points out 4 way of getting rid Of these
pests. and he has explained the method
clearly in a paper which he read recent
ly before the Biological Society of
France. SAYS the New York Herald.
"The easiest way to get rid of grass
hoppers." says DIR. Captain, French
naturalist, writing on the subject, "is
to destroy their eggs. and Prof. Giard
now tells US the precise moment when
this should be done. The eggs are al
ways laid in deserted, uncultivated.
sunny places, and. according to Prof.
Giard. they are evidently most abund-
ant about the epoch when there are
few sun spots; or, in other words,
when there is a minimum of such
spots.
"He shows that more grasshoppers
are Matched either year before or a
year after the exact datewhen there is
minimum of sun spots than at any
other time. For example, there was
such minimum in 1867. and in 1865
several parts Of France were ravished
by grasshoppers. There was another
minimum in 1878: and in 1876 hosts of
grasshoppers appeared in France and
Spain. 4 similar coincidence was no.
ticed in 1sSs. Finally. 1900 was the
epoch Of the last minimum, and il was
therefore TO be expected that grass
hoppers would do a great deal of mis-
chief in 1901. That they have already
done so everyone knows.
"The inevitable conclusion to be
drawn from this simple fact IS that the
utmost pains should be taken to de-
stroy the eggs whenever such a mini
mum Of sun spots is approaching"
Attempts have been made in several
places to exterminate grown grass
hoppers by means of petroleum and
various poisonous solutions. but the
results obtained have never been very
satisfactory and the cost has always
been considerable. For this reason
many agriculturists in France are Civ
ing serious attention to Prof. Giard's
advice. and there is no doubt that in fu-
ture they will endeavor TO destroy the
eggs rather than to exterminate the
grown insects.
