Arthur himself was not free Of vices

his chance came.
The family was Mt the dinner table

Being very hungry he rushed straight

PREPARE TO DESTROY

During the latter part of June and

been kept up on grasshoppers in

ers, will justify the expenditure and
they feel that a large portion of the
crop has been saved.
There are still plenty Of grasshop-
pers in the country, however, and the
farmers in Ward county should begin
now to think about fall campaign
for destroying breeding grounds. We
have learned that the favorite places
for grasshoppers to lay eggs is along
the sides Of the road, in waste land
and on strips Of unplowed land be-
tween fields. It would take but a few
days for every farmer to pillow and disc
thoroughly ths breeding grounds on
all waste land and other places where
grasshoppers breed, after the eggs
are laid this fall and if this were done
part of our grasshopper problem at
least would be solved.
Many farmers believe that we will
not have grasshoppers again next

hopper conditions in the county and
made the following statement:
"The work of Ward county seems to
be very effective in cleaning up the
prasshoppers. Some of the best work
in the state has been done in ward
county The state condition as whole
is very good. The grasshoppers are
serious menace to the crops OF the
Mouse river valley, including Renville,
Ward, Bottineau and McHenry coun-
ties. A great many other counties
have been forced to organize in fight
ing the grasshoppers. The work in
Renville and Bottineau counties has
been handicapped because of the lack
of funds to fight the grasshoppers for
the coming year. However, the Com
missioners in Bottineau have decided
to extend an unlimited amount of
money, because the farmers realize
now, that they must fight hoppers in
order to save their crops. Several
counties of the state have eliminated
the grasshoppers as a damage factor
for this year. But work must be con-
tinued in order that few eggs will be
deposited thi stall, also we have yet
to keep the grasshoppers out Of the
flax and late oats for they will move
into the late green crops as the rye
berries and wheat is harvested. The
farmers would do right to watch the
grasshoppers very closely for the hop

more than other seeds. A good prac-

year and that after three years Of
ravaging in one district, the grasshop-
pers move to unknown parts and will
not return. This is very improbable
and we can be sure that if the grass
hoppers lay eggs this year, which they
will undoubtedly, we will have grass
hoppers again next year unless very
energetic and complete compaign is
put on this fall to destroy the breed
ing grounds.
Farmers who spent from week to
ten days fighting grasshoppers can
see where if they had plowed the
waste land around their farms last
fall and destroyed the breeding
grounds, they would have had a lot
less trouble in fighting the pests this
summer. 1t is a duty Of every land
owner and every resident Of Ward
county to expend every effort in help
ing to organize a campaign for de-
stroying the breeding grounds Of the
grasshoppers this fall.
The Ward County independent. [volume] (Minot, Ward County, N.D.) 1902-1965, 1920-08-12

tice is to scatter poison bait over the
shocks of rye, as this action will save
large percentage of the rye berries
on the outside of the shock. The crop
as a whole looks much better over the
state than it has for several years.
Some Of the crops are past the dam
age point of rust and drought, though
there as some indications that rust
may do damage to later crops"
