/ POISON MASH FOR
GRAssH0PPFass

Almost every year, some sections
OF Central and West Texas pay an
immense bill TO the grasshopper.
Every person who has lived on a farm
in one of these sections has witness
ed at least one invasion in which
whole fields were almost entirely de-
foliated. The damage from this pest
annually mounts into thousands OF
dollars. Practically no field crop is
free from their, attacks. and some
times even the trees are ruined by
having their leaves chewed of.
TIL erasshopper lays its eggs in the
fall. In holes bored to a depth of an
inch or two in the ground These
egg masses are usually deposited in
the grass lands or along the fence
rows or ditchea through the fields
There are usually about so eggs in
one mass. and one female deposits
from 2 TO masses. These eggs hatch
in the spring and the young hoppers.

good winter methods of cultivation
will destroy most of those that grow

western portion OF the state where so

designed and used with varying de-
grees of success In alfalfa fields
and in similar situations this seems
to he one of the successful methods.
However. for general farm use. where
all kinds of crops and conditions
