Makes Statement On
Grasshopper Situation

hopper horde multiplies with great
lapidity.
Here let me impress the necessity
of prevention, for once they become
prevalent their elimination is impos-
sible. Probably the most effectua
manner of accomplishing this result
is by a thorough discing of alfalfa
fields and blowing of pasture lands.
This viii not only destroy eggs de-
posted by grasshoppers, but is one
of the most successful means for the
prevention of aphis. The plowing
should not be confined to uncultivat-
ed fields, but must include ditch
Lanks and, in fact, any land that can
be turned over.
'Tf every farmer in the valley
would adopt this plan there is no
doubt that the great damage done by
the grasshoppers could be avoided
each year, which would mean a saw
ing Of both time and money.
