Grasshoppers.

The Iowa State College Experiment
station sends out the following bulletin
with reference to grasshoppers:
Grasshoppers have become very
common in many parts of the state
this year; the exceptionally dry sea-
son being more favorable for their de-
velopment. Meadows in many local
tiles abound with the insects, whicl,
are liable to cause damage to other
crops. They belong for the most part
to two species: the larger one, the
two-striped grasshopper and smaller
one, the common red-legged grass.
hopper.
The mature glasshoppers lay their
eggs in the fall, usually in unploWed
ground. The following spring these
eggs hatch out the young grasshop-
pers, the little fellows without wings.
The young ones feed all through the
summer, attain wings toward fall and
then deposit their eggs in the soil.
An easy way to kill grasshoppers
in the field is by the use of poisoned
bait or "Criddle Mixture" This mix
ture is a compound of horse manure,
salt and Paris green, and is thrown
out over fields infested with grass
hoppers. The insects take to the mix
ture readily and are easily killed in
this way. The "Criddle Mixture" has
been used with great success in Can
ada.
This mixture is made jim the follow
ing manner: Take about 100 pounds of
horse droppings, mix in box or bar
rel with pounds of salt and 1 pound
of Paris green. Five 10 quart pals
make about 100 pounds. The Paris
green should first be placed in half a
pail of water and stirred well before
adding to the manure. More water may
be added if necessary, so that the mix
ture is we'll moistened. Manure with
little straw is best.
A large shovel of the mixture will
be sufficient for every two rods square
in the field.
No losses to poultry have been
noticed in fields where the mixture
has been used, but due care should be
taken in exposing stock to these fields.

Stockers and Feeders-With very
little stock being carried over from
last week yard traders were all out
after supplies this morning, but the
excessive supply put them in rather
bearish mood and they made strong
effort to depress values right from the
start. Strictly good to choice f1eshy
feeders as well as the best of stock
cattle were picked up in pretty good
season at prices that compared vc!G
favorably with prevailing values az
the close of last week. On the gener-
al run of stuff bids were generally
1Oc or 10 to 15c lower than Friday and
a good share of the trading was on
this basis. Compared with the early
part of last week most grades OF
stockers and feeders show rs to soc
decline and prospect of further heavy
supplies this week created bearish
feeling in the trade, but it was hard
work to get sellers to shade prices
where they had good to choice stock
and the brunt of the decline fell on
the rough, heavy and common light
and medium weight grades.
Hogs-The supply OF hogs was very
moderate this morning and trains be-
ing late in arriving, there were very
few hogs on sale at any one time. The
trade was reasonably active at prices
that were a big 10c higher than Sat
urday's general market. Early arriv-
ais were all disposed of in very good
season, but few hogs that came in
late after the most of the orders had
been filled did not sell quite SO we'll,
the close being slow and little low
er, most of the early advance being
wiped out. Bulk ranged from S.95 to
905, with tops at $40.
The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1910-09-07

Sheep-The supplies were heavy
this morning, but all classes of buy
ers were present, with result that
there was a good market for feeding
lambs and shoop. Prices paid looked
about the same as those prevailing at
the close of last week and the trade
sufficiently active to clean up the Of
ferings about as fast as they came in
and were put in Shape to be shswn.

Cows and Mixed Stock-There was
good outlet for COWS and heifers,
but the excessive supply enabled buy
ers to cheaper up on the stuff and
prices shaded lower as a general rule.
Outside butchers and local packers
were keen buyers for the more desir-
able grades and prices were not
great deal different from the close of
last week for this class of stuff. The
trade was slow on the fair to medium
stuff and trend of values lower. There

NEW RECORD CATTLE RECEIPTS
Hioh Mark Established Two Years

1000 Head.

Omaha, Neb., Sept. 6--Dealers were
generally more or less surprised at the
heavy run of cattle today as it was
generally thought that this weeks sup
plies would be lighter than last and
that next weeks supply would be the
banner run of the season. Dealers
said the western cattlemen could not
get the cars back in time to load this
week but in this they were evidently
mistaken.
Up to noon a total of COS cars were
received, which estimated at twenty
seven head to the car would mean a
run of 1921 head. This is nearly
5000 in excess OF the previous largest
run, October 6219os, when the official
receipts showed 1851 head. One
good feature of the run today was that
the big bulk of the stock arrived in
good season Sunday or this morning
and was in shape to be shown and
sold before noon.

Receipts of cattle were the heaviest
of the season, also the heaviest in the
history of the yards. The proportion
of beef steers was small and the quail
ity OF the offerings hardly as good as
last week. The more desirable grades
changed hands at quotably steady fig
ures while the short fed and warmed
up grades had to go slightly lower
price, although it could hardly be said
that prices were materially lower than
last week, inasmuch as the offerings
were too limited to afford anything
like an adeOuate test of the marekt

The football game last Saturday
between the local and Culdesac high
school teams in this city vas more
one-sided than the former game at
Culdesac between these two elevens
at Culdesac, but was Interestingly
watched by fair crowd of lovers of
the sport.
Early in the FIRST half Nezperce
scored with touchdown by Cunning
ham and goal kick by StellmOn.
After this it was only a question of
how long the Culdesac line could
keep the Nezperce invincibles from
piling up further scores, which the
latter kept right on doing until the
score stood 81 to nothing in favor of
the locals, when Culdesac called the
game off with ten minutes yet to
play because of the hopelessness of
their case and the battered condition
of their players. One of the Guide
sac players was carried unconscious
from the field just before the game
was closed.
The only time during the game
that culdesac made any pereptible
gains was during the third quarter,
and just as they might have begun to
see a ray of hope in the dark pros
pect Swami, who vas playing fullback
for Nezperce, broke away with the
ball and tore through several fierce
tackles for 20 yards and a touch
down.
A banquet was given the visitors
by the high school pupils at the
opera house in the evening.
The local team which has thus far
won by long odds in every game
played this season viii go to Lewis
ton tomorrow to play the Normal
school eleven at the Lewiston-C Clark
ston fair grounds. where it is hoped
they viii maintain their excellent
record.
