o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o

The $4,000 teachers and the 1,OOO,-
900 pupils of the South are being urg-
ed by their educational and agricultur-
al leaders to assemble 100000 far
mers, their families and friends, in the
SO, 900 school houses on November u
for an hour, in order to survey and
review their AGRICULTURAL resources
and achievements, and to express their
appreciation of the. services OF one
of their great benefactors. Agricul-
ture is worthy of this consideration,
for the farmers of the nation have this
year produced ten billion dollars,
worth of crops to feed and clothe
nearly 1O0,OOO,O0O people here. with a
surplus fer other nations.
Knapp Agricultural Day is the OH
cial designation. The South wishes to
honor the memory of DR.. S. A. Knapp
as the founder of the Demonstration
work and the Boys and Girls clubs.
This is fitting, because 100000 demon
strators are making larger crops on
their farms and Corn Club boys are
attracting worldwide attention by
growing more than 225 bushels on one
acre at low cost The indications are
that several of the $4,000 boys will
this year break all records. 1t is fit
ting. because $4,000 girls, in the har-
vest season, are filing pantries with
wholesome food and selling the sur
plus. It is a duty, because DR.. Knapp
taught new method in agriculture
and the lessons must be more widely
impressed and unfailingly transmitted.
Representatives of England, Russia
Brazil, South Africa, Siam and Argen-
tina have come to learn them. 1t IS
high time for American schools to
take the lead in these ideas.

DESTROYlNG. GRASSHOPP PPERS

Reply to Jacob Mathiason, Walnut
Grove, Mimi. please send me by
mail directions for killing grasshop-
pers."
Before attempting to give remedy
for the grasshopper plague, few
words in regard to its early stages Oh
growth will not be out of place. In
order for the grasshopper to multiply
to any extent, the soil in which the
eggs are laid must be undisturbed and
there must be an abundance Of food
available. The most favorable con-
dition for grasshopper development
seems to be found in the alfalfa sec
tions of the west. Where it Is possible,
one of the best preventive measures is
to cultivate the ground. The soil need
not be disturbed below the first two
inches of surface, for most Of the
eggs are deposited very shallow. We
fully realize that in many cases this
cannot be done so as to completely
destroy the grasshopper, but where it
is possible to plow and cultivate in the
fall. the number can be greatly de-
creased.
There are two ways Of destroying
the adult or grown grasshopper. One
is by the use of the hopper dozer.
Various forms are in use. but one that
has given very good satisfaction can
be built of sheet iron, ten or twelve
feet long, and about twenty-six inches
wide, with a board across the back,
against which the grasshoppers will
flv and then fall into the bottom Of the
hopper dozer The bottom Of the hop
per dozer should be made water tight,
30 that a quantity Of water may be
poured into it, also small quantity OF
kerosene: The hopper dozer should be
rounted on low skids or small wheels
AID drawn by one or more horses.
The grasshoppers will be collected in
the hopper dozer and killed by coming
in contact with rhe kerosene. This
whole structure is rather inexpensive
and has proved a very good method Of
destroying the grasshopper.
The bureau of entomology Of the
United States Department Of Asrs-
culture has recommended poisore|l
bait. which is known as the "cri6d!,
mixture" and has given very goes
results in some sections. The miH
ture is made as fellows:
One-half barrel fresh horse dror-
pings, in which is mixed one pound
each of salt ami paris green. If tho
droppings are not fresh. the salt IS
dissolved in waeer and mixed with the
manure and poison.
Then this mixture is scattered freely
about. where the grasshoppers arc
abundant DR.. Fletcher, entomologisr
for the Dominion Of Canada. cites an
instance where this poison mixture
was scattered around portion of the
field. with the result that this portion
STAYED green while the grasshoppers
seriously injured other parts Of the
same field. The criddle mixture has
been preferred to other brands Of poi
son because its effect on other forms
of animal life is not so serious.
