Routing out Embryonic Forms Ex-

Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
wallis, Nov. 6.-Disking the relatively
limited areas in which grasshopper
egg deposits are massed is one Of the
two effective control measures for
hoppers practiced by Oregon farmers.
fright now is the time when most
effective work is being done in
routing out the vast quantities of
eggs and exposing them to attacks
of bad' weather, birds, and other
enemies" says B. G. Thompson,
federal and Agricultural College in
sect field specialist. THE grass
hoppers that will damage the crops
next season are now in the egg stage
and great masses of them may be
destroyed by disking.
1.-THE eggs are relatively large and
straw colored, and are deposited in
bean-shaped capsules with rs to 80
eggs each. The capsules are half an
inch long and covered with earth.
They are found around grass roots
in untitled soils, along fence rows,

equipped with a stage and movie
apparatus. The game room, reading
and social rooms will be so arranged
that they can be thrown into the
auditorium when necessary, increas-
ing its seating capacity to $50. A
canieen will probably be established
in the hat.
W o. Heckart, a Eugene contrac-
tor, has charge of the construction
OF the building and William F.
Vance, Y. M. C. A. secretary, will
have charge as soon as the hut is
completed. DR.. Vance has just re-
cently arrived from Caldwell, Idaho
The national Y. NJ. C. A. has ap-
pTopriated $500 to be used for the
benefit of the soldiers in the Univer-
sity camps. This means that the

OUR STEADY SUBSCRIBER.

How dear to our hearts is the steady
subscriber
Who pays in advance at the birth
of each year;
Who lays down the money and does
it right gladly,
And casts around the office a halo
of cheer.
Who never says, Stop it; | cannot
afford it
I'm getting more papers now
than | can read
But always says. Send it; our people
all like it
In fact we all think it help and
need
How welcome his check when it
reaches our sanctum,
How it makes our pulse throb;
how it makes our hearts dance.
We outwardly thank him; we in
wardly bless him
The steady subscriber who pays in
advance"

and In waste places where they are
protected from the weather.
THE egg areas seldom exceed two
or three acres in extent and freqneHt-
ly are no larger than a table top
Within this space the egg masses are
crowded thick. They are mostly
within the two inches of surface
soil, which should be thoroughly
stirred to that depth. The areas may
again be narrowed or disked next
March or April to expose the eggs
that escaped the fall disking-
