There has been good progress
made on the formation of the grass
hopper pest districts, rs everyone
realizes the Importance Of this
work. In getting the petitions
ready for the county commissioners
u very hearty response has been
given. In one district every land
owner and every renter or tenant
was interviewed. and 100 per cent
Of the signatures were secured.
This is an exceptionally fine record.
Corresponding success has been
found in the other districts, al
though 1t will not be possible to
zee each man individually.
The operation Of this work is
about as follows: The petitions will
be presented to the county commits
siOners, who will declare the includ-
ed sections as pest districts. The
names of the land owners and rent
ers will then be sent to the office
OF the state etOmOlOgist, who will
send notices to the land owners and
renters to poison the grasshOppers,
and instructions will be given SO
there will be uniformity in the
work. There will be county pest
inspector with deputies to give in
formation and help where needed.
Every man must do this work, to
make it q success, as il some poison
grasshoppers and others do not, re-
suits cannot be secured.
It is hoped that arrangements
can be made to prepare the poison
ed bait at some central point in
large lots thus getting wholesale
prices on the materials and sell it
to the farmers at actual cost
The best results can be secured
only ii everybody goes into the
work with q will The cost to each
farmer win be merely the actual
cost Of materials used by him to
kill the pests on his land. Eeach
farmer must do the work for his
own land.
The materials used are as follows.

paris green. Dilute two quarts of
lOw-grade m0lasses to five gallons
Of water. Grind the rind and juice
Of six lemons. Stir the liquid into
