Uses His Chickens.

Turning grasshoppers iato eggs and
selling them for II cents per dozen Is
the novel method evolved by Chris
Guenther for making money out of
what is generally considered calan-
ity. When the grasshoppers began
their depcedations ON the crops In
Decatur county Mr.. Guenther noticed
that they were beginning to damage
his large alfalfa crop. He at once
went to Oberlin and purchased some
lumber, out of which he constructed
a chicken house on wheels. He placed
it in the alfalfa field. He then trans
ferred his 800 chicken rs from the barn
ward to the alfalfa field. The grass
hoppers were thick and the chickens
began to thrive. The egg yiels IN
creased rapidly and the young chick
ems began to grow.
Each night he moved the coop to
another spot in the field, the chickens
following, and the next morning they
exterminated the hoppers In another
SPOT, In this manner he has taken
the chickens throughout the field and
10 is one of the few in the county
which is not now being damaged to
some extent by the pest. Other
farmers are driving over their fields
with tin boxes which slide over the
alfalfa and knock the hoppers into
The boxes, in most cases bi eakiDg
their wings and legs so that they
cannot get out. The farmers then
burn them or feed them to the
chickens. 1t Is believed that the
nest will soon leave because it Is
noticed that the hoppers have very
lung wings and when the wind blows
they are seen flying away by the
thousands. One farmer declared that
they were the same kind Of hoppers
which visited this section in 1897, and
in that year they left about the first
of August. The reason given for the
coming of the hoppers is that the
severe winter froze the eggs suf-
ficiently to cause them to hatch, as
they seem to demand long and
severe period of cold weather TO make
them fertile.

woman. Nov what IL IL you
want to dot"
They were standing in the CEN
ter of the wretched living-room.
The goose-boy was in the door,
looking on with strangely alert,
questioning eyes, ever and anon
peering over his shoulder toward
the spot where Hobbs stood with
the horses. He seldom took his
gaze from the face of the old
woman, a rat-like smile touching
the corners of his fuzz-lined lips.
II want to go through that
kitchen. Just to satisfy myself of
one or two things" King was
looking hard at the crack in the
kitchen door. Suddenly he start
ed as If shot.
The staring, burning eye was
again looking straight at him
from the jagged crack in the
door!
"I'll get you this time" he
shouted, crossing the room in two
eager leaps. The door responded
Instantly to his violent clutch,
swung open with a bang, and dis
closed the interior of the queer
little kitchen.
The owner of that mocking,
phantom eye was gone!
Like a frantic dog, Truxton
dashed about the little kitchen,
looking in every corner, every
crack for signs of the thing he
chased. At last he paused, haf-
fled, mystified. The old woman
was standing in the middle of the
outer room, grinning at him
with what was meant for compla-
cency, but which struck him at
once as genuine malevolence.
"Ha, hal" she croaked. "You
fool! You fool! Search! Smell
him out! All the good it will do
you! Ha, hal"
"By CAD. will get at the bot
tom of this!" shouted Truxton,
stubborn rage possessing him
There's some one here, and
know it. I'm not such a fool as
to believe-Say! What that? The
ceiling! BY the eternal, that
scraping noise explains it! There's
where the secret trap-door is-in
the ceiling! Within arms reach,
at that! Watch me, old woman!
I'll have your spry friend out of
his nest in the shake of a lambs
tail"
The bag was standing in the
kitchen door, now, still grinning
evilly. She watched the eager
young man pound upon the low
ceiling with a three-legged stool
that he had seized from the floor.
AZ don't see how he got up
there so quickly. though. He
must be like creased lightning"
He was pounding vigorously on
the roughly boarded ceiling when
the sharp voice of the old woman,
raised in command, caused him tc
lower the stool and turn upon
her with cleaning, triumphant
eyes. The look he saw in her
face was sufficient to check his
enterprise for the moment. He
dropped the stool and started to-
ward her, his arms extended to
catch her swaying form. The look
of the dying was in her eyes; she
seemed to be crumpling before
him.

He reached her in time, his
strong arms grasping the frail.
bent figure as 1t sank to the floor.
AS he lifted her bodily from her
feet. intent upon carrying her to
the open air, her bony fingers
sank into his arm with the grip
of death. and-could he believe
his ears!-a low, mocking laugh
came from her lips.
Down where the pebbly house
yard merged into the messy
banks, Mr.. Hobbs sat tight, still
staring with gloomy eyes at the
dark little hut up the glen. His
sturdy knees were pressing the
skirts of the saddle with a firm
ness that left no room for doubt
as to the tension his nerves were
under. Now and then he muir
INJURED "My world" but in what
connection 1t is doubtful IL even
he could tell. A quarter of an
hour had passed since King dis
appeared through the doorway:
Mr.. Hobbs was getting nervous.
The. shiftless, lanky goose-herd
came forth in time, and lazily
drove his scattered flock off into
the lower glen.
The horses were becoming i'm
patient. To his extreme discom-
fort, not to say apprehension,
they were constantly pricking
their ears forward and snorting in
the direction of the hovel; a very
puzzling circumstance, thought
Mr.. Hobbs. At this point he be-
gan to say dammit" and with
some sense of appreciation. too.
Presently his eye caught sight
of a thin stream of smoke, rather
black than blue, arising from the
little chimney at the rear of the
cabin. His eyes flew very wide
open; his heart experienced
sudden throbless moment; his
mind leaped backward to the I'M
explained smoke mystery of the
day before. 1t was on the end of
his tongue to cry out to his un-
seen patron, to urge him to leave
the witch to her deviltry and
come along home, when the old
woman herself appeared in the
oorway-alone.
She sat down upon the door
step, putting away at long pipe,
her hooded face almost invisible
from the distance which he reso-
lutely held. He felt that she was
cycling him with grim interest.
For a few minutes he waited, al
doubt growing up in
his soul. A single glance showed
him that the chimney was mol
longer emitting smoke. 1t seemed
to him that the old woman was
losing all semblance of life. She
was no more than a black, mani
mate heap of rags piled against
the door-jamb.
Hobbs let out a shout. The
horses plunged viciously. Slowly
the bundle of rags took shape.
The old woman arose and hobbled I
toward him, leaning upon a great
cane.
"Whe-where's Mr.. King?"
called out Hobbs,
