 Out of last years devastation came intensified study by county agents. agricultural colleges anc workaday farmers as to the habits and possible means of control oi the hoppers.

 On one hope only is reliance placed that the war may be suc- cessfully waged without great ex- pense-that the weather may be wet in the spring, for long con- tinued rains during the matching season, in May and June, may greatly reduce the numbers of the invaders.
 Winter temperatures, no matter how severe, apparently have no effect on the egg pods. Dr. Rug gles said. Thus. If nature is going to come to the farmers rescue ef- fectively it will have to be in the form of wet weather during May and June.
