SCIENCE FIGHTS TO
Stem HOPPER TIDE
Vast Area In Minnesota and
Other States Declared Raw
aged by Pests

Minneapolis, July 28.-(PHscience
was fighting Tuesday to stem the tide
OF hordes Of creeping, hopping and
flying grasshoppers playing havoc
with the crops of Minnesota, Iowa
Nebraska, North and South Dakota.
AT Des Moines, the Iowa capital
plans were being made for a meet
ing OF entomologists and AGRICULTURAL
leaders to devise means of combating
the hordes of insects which have
moved relentlessly across the Missouri
river eastward. At the same time,
Iowa state officials sought an ap-
preparation of $4,000 to fight the
plague.
Meanwhile. militant farmers, armed
with poison mixtures, returned to the
fight. In some Minnesota counties
the situation was so bad that other
farm activities were suspended to
leave the farmers free to wal against
the pests which have penetrated
fields, pastures and orchards, leaving
them virtually bare of green vegeta-
ton and harvestable crops.
Wluc area Uev0SCaCe0
More than 150. 900 acres in Kittson
and Marshall counties in northwest
Minnesota have been nearly erased
from the harvest picture. Polk coun-
ty is estimated to have suffered a so
per cent loss in grain crops. In a
dozen adjacent counties the defense
fight goes on with local infestations
reported in more than half of the
counties In the state. These include
corn, potato. onions as well as grain
growing areas.
A. G.. Ruggles, state. entomologist,
directing state efforts to assist the
farmers, said unless weather condi-
tions shift from hot and dry. de-
will continue for many
weeks and extend into a far wider
zone. Just now weather conditions
for the "hoppers" are ideal, he said.
Bran, molasses and poisons are
combined to form the ammunition Of
he defense. All sorts Of farm ma
have been equipped hurriedly
improvised fittings to scatter
he mixture In fields. Grasshoppers,
by the molasses. die within
a hours after sampling the bran.
Their fellows, who follow an instinct
feed upon the first unfortunates,
cap their reward much quicker.
Swarms Travel Rapidly
Millions are killed, Ruggles said.
tut millions are seen to take their |
,laces. Some areas regarded free of
he pests at shutdown have been
warming with them the following
loon.
