Grasshoppers are cleaning out
crops in the vicinity of Alameda
and are doing great damage all
over the county, according to G. L.
Crawford. county agent. He is con-
Quoting experiments in poisoning
and hopes to find method of eff
fectively combating them.
we had alfalfa and turkey red
wheat six inches high growing nice
ly until the grasshoppers came,
said Mr.. Gentry who owns ranch
near Alameda, now there is moth
ing left but the alfalfa stalks
The New Mexico grasshoppers
are smaller than the variety COM
mon TO Texas. They are more fas-
tidious in their tastes and Mr..
Crawford is not sure that they will
eat the poisoned bran mash which
has brought the downfall of the
Texas hopper.
He offers this formula: Mix dry
twenty pounds of wheat bran and
one pound of arsenate of lead. Mix
in three gallons OF water two
quarts of cheap, strong molasses
and six finely chopped lemons. The
two mixtures are next combined
into a thin mash. The mash
should be distributed at shutdown
along irrigation bitches where the
grasshoppers come at night, placing
a small teacupful every three feet.

UNLESS something is done 10
out ON East Central avenue paving,
beyond the city limits, in the next
few days, we are going to lose fed
eral aid and the paving may be
held up for years" declared l.. w.
Wood in letter received yester-
day by II B. Watkins, secretary of
the Chamber of Commerce. "Can
you not do something?"
Il am informed by Mr.. KEN
penich of the state road commits
sion that unless something is done
right away the federal aid money
will be allotted elsewhere. The
property owners who are pledge
to pay 60 per cent of the cost have
done all in their power 10 get It
through and have failed.
There must be concerted action
at once by others Interested in AL
buquerque if we get East Central
paved to the university"
Every effort is being brought to
bear by the Chamber of Commerce,
Mr.. Watkins stated, and at present
there are only two persons who are
blocking the move. Tourists who
enter Albuquerque by way of East
Central avenue declare that all that
is needed to make II no mans land
are a few barbed wire entangle-
ments.
IF we are going to help build
up the state university. If we are
10 make the road attractive to tour
lists. we must pave East Central
avenue at least as far as the uni
versity campus" Mr.. Watkins de-
clared as he pictured young women
students in white summer dresses
walking in the fog of dust raised
by passing automobiles and tread
ing in dust and sand ankle deep.
He pointed out the fact that
health seekers are forced to
breathe the dust In their cots at
sanatoriums along the avenue and
for daily exercise have no alterna-
tive but to use Central avenue.
Car owners of Albnquerque-use the
avenue practically everytime they
,'rive out Of the city. No end Of
pressure should be brought to bea"
IN putting this paving across.

HOLD SAFETY MEETS;
PLANNING BIG BALL

Safety meetings were held at 10
o'clock yesterday morning in the
master mechanics office for the
roundhouse force, and at 2:30 p.
m. in the reading room OF the main
office building for the back shop
department. Both meetings were
addressed by Charles Judd, Santa
Fe safety man. and representa-
tive of the Dodge City shops.
Attention was called by one Of
the speakers to the annual safety
first ball. Although 1t is held on
New Years eve it was thought ad-
visable to bring it to the attention
of the general public in order that
the ball might not conflict with
, social events which might other
wise be held on that day.
