On the great plains of Argentina,

states of this country on occasion. A
locust invasion in the Argentine is
unique and terrible thing to watch,
and a traveller who has this experience
Is not likely to forget 1t. He comes
out of it with lively sympathy for
the ancient Egyptians who were
schooled by Moses.
They come first as small cloud on
the far horizon, and the wise old ma

wells the whole horizon In purple
mist. In countless billions Of billions
they come then, fluttering and cling
Ing everywhere, hiding the trees and
walls with the multitude Of their cling
Ing bodies. They do not destroy any
thing yet; they have simply come to
lay their eggs. and this they do, and
then move on.
But the crops are as good as ruined
and everyone knows 1t. Soon the eggs
hatch out. A multitude of tiny, green
backed choppers" as the natives call
them, crawl forth from the burrows
where the females placed the eggs.
The whole countryside Is covered with
locusts. They grow fast and eat ev-
erything green. with few exceptions.
A few attempts may be made to
fight them. Men will burn fields of
dry grass and billions Of locusts with
them. They will dig huge pits and
rake other billions in to be buried.
They will drive herds of sheep over
them to crush them, but the number
OF locusts is not perceptibly dimin-
ished. They are numerous past all
thinking. They will cling to the walls
of house and cover it as with rust
ling curtain, so that not an inch Of
wood or stone can be seen. They COW
