Grasshopper War Widelprea

Although the principal method OF attack In
this control campaign Is the distribution OF
poison bait, much good can be done before inc
eggs hatch if the areas where they occur are
plowed before May Is.
Unless controlled, the grasshopper situauon
in 1884 will be more serious than ever before
in several Western States, department ento-
mologists believe, and the pests may spread 70
States not yet badly infested. From recent IN
sect pest surveys the entomologists estimate tnat
in the main infested area of the United states
more than 13 600 600 acres in 2s7 counties in
eight States-North Dakota, South Dakota'
Montana, Wyoming, Minnesota, Wisconsin,
Nebraska and Idaho-are likely to need protec-
ton against grasshoppers.
Not only will the grasshopper infested area
be larger this year, the entomolog1sts aoo' put
over much of it q more dangerous specieS-tne
lesser migratory grasshopper-wiu be In eW-
dence. Because the strong-dying adults can
travel faster and therefore farther in single
season, this species Is far more serious men,
ace than the two-striped and dif1erential spe-
cies. in which the adults are weak flyers These
two species were the principal pests IN 1881
and 1882. The lesser migratory grasshopper,
which increased greatly in 1933 is now thought
to be just one phase removed from the ROCKY
Mountain locust that, 60 years ago. new IN great
swarms over the Western countryside, darken-
ing the sky and bringing havoc to the eartn
where it descended. Recently grasshoppers In
the United States seem to be reverting to this
strong flying type. Even the clumsy, heavy
bodied differential and two-striped hoppers,
which usually fly only a few feet when dis
turbed, are showing greater powers OF night.
If unchecked by man or by weather unfaVor-
able to their development, entomolog1sts say,
the grasshoppers Of 1894 will quickly move from
their Matching grounds out over wide terri
tory. Since the weather-even II It could be
forecast far enough ahead-is not at all likely
to be unfavorabe to grasshoppers over their
entire range only a carefully planned campaign
started early in the season and covering every
infested acre can be counted on to- save cereal
and forage crops in the Great Plains and ad-
jacent States this year. Time and enough
poisoned bait are the important elements In
any such campaign. As soon as the grasshop-
pers come out from the eggs In which they
have -Wintered (probably about the middle
of May), they will start their steady advance
over the green fields. greedily devcuring all
vegetation as they 60. Once they lave COW

bait needed for their control becomes pronibi-
tive.
Evening star., 1934-05-06

THE grasshopper is in for the battle OF his
] history this Spring as the Government.
through use of a fund of 81 235000o, will iauncn
a campaign aided by farmers all through the
Plain States intended to exterminate the mop
pers. which do a tremendous amount OF DAM
age to crops every year.
Using the $2354893 appropriated for the
purpose by Congress. the Department OF Agr1-
culture will supply the poisoned bait needed
for the wholesale destruction of grasshoppers
sure to hatch this Spring and Summer from
the millions Of eggs left in the ground last
Fall Organizations of farmers, under trained
leaders. will distribute the poisoned bait ana
spread it over the land.
Secretary Wallace emphasizes the importance
of well-co-ordnated planning all along the line
in this campaign especially by the farmers
themselves Furnishing free bait from CEN
trail source and leaving the responsibility for
its use to the individual farmer, he says. would
be ineffective and wasteful. Under such sys-
tenn some farmers would use more material
than necessary and others less. Some would
kill all the grasshoppers Matching out on their
own FARMS only to have their crops ultimately
destroyed by hoppers from the fields OF neigh
bors who made no attempt at control. Wnen
entire communities have organized for grass
hopper control they have as rule obtained
outstanding results Volunteer workers, under
trained leaders, scatter poisoned bait IN the
proper quantities and at the right time through
out an entire community wherever grasshop-
pers are known to be present. Campaigns OF
this type have often given 100 per cent pro-
lection and reduced infestations to such an
extent that no control was required the fol-
lowing year.
The 1894 campaign, under the general su-
pervision of the Bureau Of Entomology will be
patterned after campaigns which have proved
successful in single States and counties. Dr.
J. r. Parker, chief of the bureaus station at
Bozeman, Mont, will direct the work IN the
field. Each State will have a grasshopper con-
troll committee, composed of representatives OF
State agricultural agencies. Much Of the or
ganization work win be done by the extension
services and the State director of extension
will usually be chairman of the control COM
mite Each county will be organized, usually
under the leadership of the county agricul-
tural agent, ON a community or township basis
The State committees will be aided by trained
entomologist, and will coordinate the local
agencies The bureau will buy with the Fed
eral funds appropriated for the purpose, the
ingredients of the poisoned bait for grasshop-
pers-arsenic, molasses and bran-and will have
it mixed and sacked by mills in the infested
territory. The allotment Of bait for each local
organization will be sent to central point
from the most convenient mill. The local unit
will haul it to the fields and spread 1t over the
ground

GRAINS DROP AS
DROUGHT ENDS
Wheat Farmers Rejoice as
Additional Rainfall Is
Promised.
By United Press


CHICAGO, May 14.-Great gray
clouds filled with rain hung heavily
over the grain belt today as farm
ers rejoiced in the breaking of a
forty five day drought that has
reaped a toll of millions in crop
damage and caused widespread suf-
fering.
More rain, fresh shifting winds
and even scattered frosts were fore
cast for the next twenty-four hours.
Rains yesterday seemed to the
great farm region like a bountiful
hail of dollars from the heavens and
before dawn today whole families
we're in tie fields.
The weekend rains and promises
of more to come sent the price of
wheat, corn, oats and rye down on
the Chicago Board of Trade. Wheat
was off q to Is cents with May
wheat selling at 8634. Corn dropped
the same amount and oats were off
from y cent to q cent.
The weather bureau promised
scattered rainfall tonight and tomor-
row in southern Illinois, Indiana,
southern Missouri, southeast Kansas
and Ohio.
