Have Destroyed Much Feed In the
County Past Year.

Grasshoppers have destroyed sew
eral thousand dollars worth of feed
crops in Prowers county this year.
The next years problem of com
plete eradication of the grasshopper
should be started this fall by burn
ing weeds in fence corners, by reno
waiting the alfalfa field this fall or
winter, which will destroy large
numbers Of eggs.
Each female grasshopper deposits
from IS to rs eggs and the eggs are
surrounded by waterproof, serous
sack which is deposited one inch
beneath the surface. In early spring
the young grasshoppers are hatch
ed in the nympth stage and soon
become adult grasshOppers.
There are a number of ways to
combat this insect, but perhaps
the most feasible way is the poison
ing method with Lead ArSenate or
Paris Green.
Prepare as follows:
1A pounds white Arsenic or Par

FATE OF HUNS NOW
RESTS WITH THE YANKS
If They Break Through North of
verdun Whole German Army
Must Retreat.

The following dispatch is taken
from last nights latest mail edi-
tion of the Denver Evening Post:
With the American Army North
west of Verdun. Oct. 16 (NOon).-
Fighting in a cold rain, the Amer
leans made further progress north
west of Verdun today. A German
salient is developing at the upper
end of the Argonne forest and to
the north of the Aire river.
Since Sunday the Germans have
been confronting the Americans
with a wall of machine-gun fire in
a desperate effort to check our ad-
vance between the Argonne forest
and the Meuse, where the enemy's
situation is critical.
The Germans are putting up the
most desperate resistance between
the ArgOnne forest and the Woe
vre plain, for General Won der Mar
ltz the German commander in that
zone, is quoted as saying that Ger
many's fate depends upon the Ger
man lines holding in that vital sec.
tor"
Should the Americans break
through north of Verdun, they
could compel retreat of the whole
German army, for they would be in
a position to cut the main lines of
communication behind the German
front.
Also the Germans would be fore.
ed from the Briey-Longwy iron
fields, which they have been util.
lzing since they invated France. In
addition, a retirement northeast of
.Verdun would enable the Amer.
leans to work into German terri.
