Gasshopper Pest
Can Be Eliminated
Agriculturist Urges that Fields
Be Disced During the
Next Few Months

Grasshoppers can be greatly de.
creased in number and. 10 time,
entirely eliminated, according to
Stanley v. Smith, agriculturist for
Pue bio county. Mr.. Smith thinks
that every farmer should see to it
that all breeding places for grassbop-
pers are done away with. In an In
terview with New Era representa-
tive few days ago, Mr.. Smith said
that the grasshopper pest was very
severe one In many counties In this
state. He advocates the discing OF
the land which n not in crops, all
fence corners, ditch banks and even
the public highways where the traffic
does not keep the road all 10 use. He
says the discs should be run at least
two inches 10 depth and that the
work should be done sometime during
the next two or three months, at
least 10 time to allow the ground to
freeze after II is gone over.
For alfalfa, Mr.. Smith suggested
that 1t be dIsced early next spring
and that the depth should be from
one and half TO two inches. He
stated that for this he preferred a
spring-tOUth harrow. He 10 OF the
opinion that these pests could be done
away with 10 q few years by this
method Of destroying their breeding
places. He was emphatic 10 his
statement that very few grassboppers
come of the prairie lands. 1t 10 the
Irrigated sections that furnish pro-
lection for their eggs.

Farm Organization
Depends on Needs
Letter from the Department Of
Agriculture Gives Light
On this Subject

Queries as to how farmers should
organize are being sent from all parts
OF the country to the department Of
agriculture at Washington, and
along this line the New Era Is in re.
ceipt OF a letter from the secretary
Of agriculture which In part SAYS:
THE answer to such general de-
maud must necessarily be that it de-.
pends upon the particular needs OF a
given community and partly upon the
capacity which farmers have to es-
tabllsh and manage the work of a
suitable organization. There should
be strong local feeling Of the need
Of some Improvement and that GER
tain definite aims or purposes can be
more fully realized with the aid Of
organized Interest and activity than
through individual effort alone. 1t
IL folly to expect that mere Orgaol-
zation. as such, will achieve a given
object. unless the farmers organize 10
the right way and equip their orRani-
zati0n 30 that it viii carry On its
work efficiently. Having decided
that an associated effort is warrented
by the needs Of the community. "a
study should be made Of the kind OF
organization that would be most use
ful and the ways and means OF max
ing It's work effective. While this
calls for intelligent, enthuastic. and
self sacrificing leadership, IL is best
that this be furnished locally. Or.
Ranizations may need outside advice
but they should not be promoted by
outsiders. The farmers advance
must come as the result nf his own
Efforts; his progress must develop
from within rather than from without.
The organization that IL given him Is
OF far less value to him than the one
which he himself creates. In the

this advice a full statement Of the
local situation should be given-the
territory TO be included, number Of
farmers Interested. class and amount
of work To 6e undertaken, previous
cooperative experience. and any other
local features that will give definite
idea Of the problems that must be

THE KIND THAT PAYS

One OF the greatest advertisements Is
this county can possibly secure is the
actual figures on crop productions as

ties do not count for much. A story

Bill smith sowed good sized acre
age to turnips and that he raised a
bumper crop which sold for fair ng.
ure does not signify anything. What
we need is a record about this
fashion: "Bill Smith had 81 acres OF
tomatoes from which he picked 81
tons and 600 pounds, selling them fol
sll per ton" Stories like this giving
the exact acreage put to certain

record becomes:

Beet Seed May
Be Sold For l5c
Carey Bought Big Shipment In
Europe For Use Here
Freight ls High

In . letter to the National Sugar
Manufacturing Co., Frances X. Carey,
president Of the company, who is now
10 Europe writes that he and his party
have bought large quantity Of beet
seed and will have 1t shipped to the
United States, arriving here within
few weeks. Mr. Carey stated that
they bought It At . very reasonable
price and can sell 1t for much less than
reports Of few weeks ago indicated
that seed could be sold for. The
price will depend some on the cost of
transportation to the United States,
but It is possible that 1t can be sold to
the farmers ~ low ~ fifteen cents
per pound.
Seed In this country was very
scarce and when the war broke out 10
Europe itwas believed that seed could
not be bought for less than so cents
per pound.
