realized that IL We didn't learn TO re-

have our personal sum Of human

HAVE
 DESIGNS ON WHEAT
Army of Million Advances On CoIum- bia River District and Farmers Or ganize For "Home Defense"

Wenatchee, Wash, July 10-Grass- hoppers are appearing by the millions in a big area of wild range land in the Pateros district, according to c. M. Curry, deputy horticulture inspec- tor, and are working toward the Big Bend wheat country.
 Wheat just heading out and large acreage of orchards are endangered by these insect pests.
 The hoppers are at present on a vast tract of uncultivated pasture land along the Columbia River, and groups of ranchers have organized to thwart the advances of the insects by spraying crude oil across their line of advance By burning the oil covered area once it is covered with grass hoppers myriads of them can be de- stroyed.
 The pests are of an unusual species not seen before in this section of the northwest. The adult ones are two inches long. bright yellow under the body and light brown wings. Once in wheat field they are almost in- visible, owing to color protection.

WOULD AVOID HEAT:
 sUCCEE TOO WELL
Found by Boy Scouts on Mountain Top Stiff From Cold, Two Toes
 Frozen Solid

keechelus, Wash, July 1o.--Abe Rubin of Findlay, O., came west early this month to escape the heat and as the result of an unusual experience is suffering from two fropen toes, one of which may have to be amputated.
 Rubin arrived here two weeks ago laden with high priced tackle to me chanically lure some of the speckled beauties from lakes and streams of the Cascade Mountains
 On the morning of the first trip he became lost in a fog near Snoqualmie Pass, and, bewildered, wandered fur ther and further from camp and at last lost in the high altitude, was forced to spend a night in an impro- vised camp.
 Heavy snow still covers the tops of the Cascades and Rubin did not build a camp fire large enough to last the night out and before morning was as stiff as a corpse from the chill air.
 When located by scouts from the inn, Rubin was badly brostbitten, two toes on his left foot being frozen solid.

OUTLAW WOLF WALKS
 INTO TRAP AT LAST
Bullet Scared Warrior Had But Three Legs and One Ear, Was
 Wholesale Killer.

| Burnet, Tex, July 1O.-One of the largest and most notorious gray timber wolves ever seen in this sec ton was caught few nights ago in a trap set by c. V. Magill, expert trapper of the United States govern ment., This animal had for several years ranged alone over a big scope of territory, making frequent raids on ranches and farms. Only night or two before he stepped between the jaws of the giant steel trap that marked the ending of his saturnalian career he had slaughtered twenty sheep upon the ranch of H. A. Barnet and dozen dogs and like number of goats upon neighboring ranches.
 This outlaw wolf killed seemingly for the pleasure of the thing. He was hunted countless numbers Of times and shot after shot had been fired at him by expert -ihemen, but he was never brought down. So destructive did he become that the services of Magill were enlisted. All ordinary means of killing or capturing him seemed out of the question. A few years ago he was caught in trap and escaped by gnawing off the inn prisoned foot.
 He was laid up for time on ac- count of this injury but he ul- timately was seen going around again on three legs and committing his predatory deeds with all of his old time daring and blood letting.
 When Magill came upon the animal in the trap a few mornings ago the wolf went into a rage and it took a bullet through his head to quiet him. It was found that his body was cov- cred with scars from bullet and other wounds. One ear was gone and the other ear had bullet hole through it.

ONE PIECE SUITS
 NO LONGER SHOCK
New Haven Shore Fronts Not Re-
 ported As Fused Over Appearance

New Haven. July 10--Agitation over the one-piece bathing suit prob- lem has not made its appearance this year. although the one-p piece bath ing suit has in varying degrees. Per haps the observing. public has become more or less "broadened'' or the bathers more conservative; but IL Is noticed that there have been practical ly no complaints against bathing suits with respect to their areas. Follow ing upon the apparent. public qui essence 1t is understood there is a re- taxation in the enforcement of local ordinances concerning promenading in bathing suits in residential sec tons adjacent to the beaches.
 So far this year. the only public cognizance given to the bathing suit question locally is the passage of an ordinance by the selectmen of East Haven prohibiting promenading in abbreviated bathing suits on the public streets. This ordinance will go into effect Friday and will chiefly concern bathers at Momauguin. Sll- yer Sands and South End. It is un-
  derstood that this ordinance was the result of complaints made by residents of the town living close to the shore.
 At Woodmont. Laurel Beach, Silver Beach and Fort Trumbull, along the West shore, everything seems to be going along smoothly and while one piece bathing suits are in evidence there has not been raising of brows to any noticeable degree. It is under stood that bathers along these shor/i are also enjoying freedom to a certain extent from the law requiring wraps to be worn to and from the beach.
 Farther down the shore however at Myrtle and Walnut Beaches 1t is re- ported there is no evidence of restraint and that one-piece bathing suits are out in larger numbers but smaller edi- tions than ever.
