GrasshOppers

AS a matter of warning and to put
farmers on the watch and to cause
them to o~bservebut not to cause alarm
and excitement.
From the number of grasshoppers
we had last summer and fall it would
seem possible to have grasshopper
damage this year. Some reports of
finding young grasshoppers have been
brought into the office but this grass
hopper is the kind that lives over win
ter and is u native grasshopper and
not a variety that does very much
damage unless they are in very large
numbers. This grasshopper matches
in the fall and lives thru the winter
as a very small grasshopper or nymph.
The injurious forms hatch out in
May and June and every farmer should
keep a careful watch on his farm and
the adjoining vacant land and be ready
to report the first appearance. When
reported early the amount or poison
required is much less. This spring
has not been a favorable spring thus
far for grasshoppers. A cold back
ward spring with plenty of moisture
is very unfavorable for the hathcing
of grasshopper eggs. A cold rain or
snow after they are Matched is very
hard on them and will kill a large
number.
The control measure is very effec-
tive with strong cooperation.
