under Federal officers with DR.. r. j.
Parker of the Bureau of Entomology
as commanding general.
Preliminary estimates indicate that
more than 100000 acres in 237
counties in 8 States-North Dakota,
| South Dakota, Montana, Wyoming,
Minnesota. Wisconsin, Nebraska and
Idaho-will need protection. The par
! ticular enemy this year is the so-called
! lesser migratory grasshopper. 1t holds
/ the speed and endurance champion
ships of the grasshopper race. The
species which caused the great plaques
of 1881 and 1882 were slower and
weaker flyers.
X x
Some queer phenomenon Is taking
| place in the grasshopper race.
| Sixty years ago the Western country
side was devastated by creature
known as the Rocky Mountain locust.
| 1t flew in such swarms that it
darkened the sky. Wherever it descend
ed it brought desolation.
| But in a few years the plague was
| lifted. The Rocky Mountain locust
became, lOr dl pl dIllIdI pul pooco'
almost extinct. 1t was succeeded
by weaker and less aggressive grass
hoppers. They remained nuisance,
but hardly death = threatening
menace.
Now the race seems to be turning
to the Rocky Mountain locust pattern
again The lesser migratory grass
hopper may be the old enemy itself
risen from extinction. Perhaps it is
a close relative which has found con-
ditions again favorable for expansion.
But all the grasshoppers in the vast
region affected by the 1880 drought
seem to be developing longer and
stronger wings. 1t may be a case of
convergent evolution, with the same
life pattern arising from similar con-
ditiOnS.

India ms Start
On New Warpath.

The Plains Indians have been set
on the warpath agarn-but this time
for the scalps of the prairie dogs and
their deadley allies. the rattlesnakes.
On the reservations alone. it is esti-
mated, they have taken complete pos
session of more than three million
acres of grazing land, creating vast
desolations wherever they advance
their lines. The objective is to ex-
terminate them. Last Summer about
a million acres were recaptured by the
Indian Emergency Conservation
Corps. which is the substitute for the
c. G. G. among the red men. There
was practically 95 per cent slaugh-
ter. it was estimated.
This Spring the warriors will be
turned loose on two million more
acres The campaign will have all
the appearance of real warfare, with
the men advancing in something akin
to the open order military formation
and armed with wooden spears and
bags of poison. 1t will have some Of
the perils of real warfare
The prarie dog. itself a pacific little
rodent whose expansion is due to
weight of increasing numbers, employs
the rattlesnake as a bodyguard-un-
! consciously. of course as regards both
parties to the alliance. But it works
out that way They advance together
in capturing territory. The rodents
burrow serves as refuge for the
reptile. The snakes bad reputation
brings security to the mammal, for
which it pays with considerable sac
rifice of its own species.
