MANITOBA PLANS
A STRONG FIGHT
AGAINST P P

Winnipeg. July 24.-Stern
to combat the grasshopper menace in
southern Manitoba will be taken as a
result Of the conference held Friday
night. Ministers of Manitoba govern
ment discussed the situation with
representative men, chiefly the reeves
and councillors of the municipalities.
1t was decided to enlist the help Of
the Manitoba government, the federal
government and also the governments
Of Saskatchewan and North Dakota.
The infested area extends west into
the Carrievale district. and south into
the United States, so all concerned
are asked to get together, and pre-
vent total destruction OF the crops
next year.
1t is now too late to save the grain
this year. 1t is not possible to estimatp
the extent of the damage, but it is
was at first expected. Some fields are
stripped bare, others have been left
only with the stalks standing. while
many have been partially eaten off.
However some preventative work can
be done by poisoning as many Of the
adult hoppers as possible, and dinain-
ishins h number Of eggs that will
be laid to hatch next season. The pro-
v1ncial government is going to supply
poison free for this The in
fected fields will also be plowed, and
all rubbish burned. so 1t is hoped that
many eggs will be destroyed. With a
favorable winter conditions will be
ten times worse mex year than this IL
the plague Is not stopped in time.
Next spring efforts will be made to
Kill hoppers as they appear when
they are small and more easily put
out Of the way. There will also be- a
careful examination Of the road al
lowances n a plentiful supply of
poison will be placed there.
