Grasshoppers have been found by
the millions in Brillian township and
in many other localities in this section
of the state.
George Beck, prominent Brillian
township farmer, brot a tumbler full
of the pests to Minot last Friday and
showed them to the writer. They
ranged in size all the way from that
of good sized mosquito to full
grown grasshopper
Mr.. Beck went out into his pasture
to see if he could find any grasshop-
per eggs. This was just after the
snow had melted from the field. He
didn't find any eggs, but what he did
see was sight to create consterna-
ton. There were countless thousands
Of the grasshoppers of all sizes. Mr.
Beck has taken the matter up with
County Agent German.
Those who believed that the grass
hoppers would be killed by the Sc
we're winter, have been disappointed.
1t is quite certain that some damage
will be done by the pests this year,
but just how much, no one is prepared
to state. The pests were poisoned last.
year in quite a successful manner and
looks as if poisoned bran will again
have to be spread for feast for these
pests. This is expensive, but with the
high cost of grain, it will pay to do
anything to save it.

Freak FiddIes.

The story Of freak fiddles would
fill book. They have been made Of
tin, copper, iron, leather, glass and
paper. They have assumed many
wonderful shapes. Last year, In Los
Angeles, a blind fiddler used to play
on the corner with fiddle that had
no body. A tin horn did the work of
the ordinary sound box Of the violin.
This was the invention Of local
man. A certain corporation maxine
monograph records in the east uses
an aluminium violin. This instrument
Is scientifically constructed and used
by one Of the greatest artists in max.
ing records Of his solos for reprsduc.
ton on talking machines. Even the
highest priced old violins do NOT
sound as one expects violin to sound
when it is reproduced on record.
This aluminium violin ,corrects that
and the listeners sit entranced at the
sweet tones of the record. The violin,
itself, has most disagreeablo tone

Wesley Butcher who returned from
Indiana Sunday where he had spent
several months with relatives who re-

SCANNING PAPER.

Stripping wallpaper from the walls
Of room, is tedious and unpleasant
task. The following method has been
found to do this work satisfactorily
Remove all furniture from the room
and take up the floor covering; place
in the middle Of the room some kind
of a portable stove with big pan Of
water on top. Light the stove and
close all the windows and doors; when
the room becomes full Of steam It
will soften the paste which has been
used for sticking the paper on the
wall. After an hour or more Of the
steaming It will be easy to remove the
paper.
