discourteous TRADE by him over the

Grasshopper Bait
Will Be Available
Stearns Is One of the Infested
Areas-Eyery Township VIII
Be Supplied

The first shipment Of grasshop-
per bait arrived Saturday, May 5,
at st. Cloud and is being stored
there for distribution to various
parts of the county at a later date.
There is on hand remaining from
last year a large supply of arsenic
and molasses that will be used
with newly purchased bran as con-
troll bait for this year. In most of
the townships of Stearns county the
committees of last year and the
year before will hold over and
serve in their respective capacities
to assist in the distribution of the
bait Requests for grasshopper
bait should be made to the town.
ship chairmen or to the committee
men. Bait will not be distributed
from st. Cloud to each and every
individual. This Is done in order to
save time and cost in the distribu-
ton, as large lots can be moved
more cheaply than individual
amounts for each farmer in need.
In addition to this, the bulk distri-
button to townships and committee
men will make it much easier to
keep an accurate check on the
amount used in each township and
to avoid all possible duplication.
This year a Federal bill was
passed making funds available for
the purchase of grasshopper bait.
The state of Minnesota will come
in for large portion of this money
and is arranging for the purchase
and distribution of bait material.
Stearns county being one of the in
tested areas will likewise be in for
an ample supply of this bait. All
local details required in the distri-
button of the material have been
arranged for through the county
extension office and every COM
munity will be amply provided with
the amounts needed. Last year
some sections of the county suf-
fered because individual producers
did not secure the bait. They were
told by some folks that the bait
was not available. That, however,
was not the case. Either the pro-
ducers did not make their wants
known to the committeeman or
some of the committeeman were
lax in their duties and did not pass
on the requests to the county ex-
tension office. There was plenty of
poison bait available at all times
last year-so much so that over a
ton of arsenic and twenty barrels
of molasses and a large amount of
bran were kept over. This year
every producer should make his
wants known to the committeeman
as soon as there is need for bait
for spreading.
The spring of 1884 so far has
shown every indication Of being
very favorable for the Matching of
grasshopper eggs. It has been a
dry spring and recently at least the

weather has been warm enough to
bring out all the hatchings in good
shape. Unless cold moist weather
comes along in the next few days
a large percentage of the eggs laid
in 1888 will hatch. The secret OF
successful control of grasshoppers
lies in watching the portions of the
farm where eggs were Matched and
letting these grasshoppers grow for
ten days to two weeks in order that
they will be large enough to want
a considerable amount of food. Then
when this stage has been reached
and poison bait is properly distrib-
uted in the areas where the eggs
Matched, a very successful kill
should be accomplished.
Grasshoppers have four stages in
their life history similar to most
other insects. After eggs hatch in
to the larva state they soon go
through the resting stage and the
aim is to bring tbout proper pois-
oning as they go through the var
ious steps in the life history. From
the time the larva is Matched until
it becomes a full grown beetle, the
grasshopper sheds it's coat four or
five times, getting a little larger
each time it takes on a new coat.
In these later stages the most sue
cessful results can be secured in
the spreading of bait. The control
program in 1884 will again be in the
hands of the county extension Of
fee, st. Cloud.

STUDY ROAD USE

Workers in the road study being
conducted in Minnesota by the U.
S. Bureau of Public Roads and the
state highway department are now
engaged in determining the origin
of the traffic which uses each class
of highways.
This party of the study, says a
highway department bulletin, will
show who makes the greatest use
of township roads, county roads,
state trunks and city and village
streets. For example, it will indi-
cate whether township roads serve
more than local traffic, and to what
extent. It will also determine the
proportion of city and country traf-
fic on state and county Grads.
Another phase of the study will
show who pays for the various
classes of highways. This data,
with the figures showing the use
made of the roads. is expected to
reveal whether or not present meth
DDS of financing the roads are equit-
able.
The road use study is being made
by means of a large number Of
interviews with representative driv-
ers in each county. This system
has been used by the U. s. Bureau
of Roads previously and declared
satisfactory.

Levy to Follow Dollar
Urged By Bureau Board
Farm Bureau Indorses Principle of
Turnover Tax. With Strict
Limitations

The principle of the dollar turn
over tax to finance state and To-
cal government was Endorsed by
the executive board of the Mime
sofa Farm Bureau at it's quarterly
meeting held in st. Paul May 2.
Before any further sources of tax
alton are opened up, however, laws
must be passed limiting the amount
of taxes that can be levied on
property, the board asserted in its
resolution, which stated that 1--WE
approve the principle involved in
the dollar turnover tax as now be-
ing advocated in the state, provid-
ed said tax movement carried with
it a direct provision for limitation
of tax on property similar to that
adopted in Indiana.
Indiana has recently passed a
law placing a limitation of 1 per-
cent of the assessed valuation on
farm porperty and IL per cent on
other property, beyond which the
tax collectors may not go in fixing
their levies. Were this law in force
in Minnesota a farmer would not
have to pay more than 81 an acre
on land assessed at 500 an acre.
A. J. Olson, president of the Min
nesota farm bureau, has long advo-
Gated the removal of all taxes on
real estate, and the substitution of
taxes based on revenue therefrom
and from all other sources of in
come. He sees in the dollar turn
over tax a possibility of achieving
this goal, without hardship to any
one.
J. S. Jones, secretary-treasurer Of
the Minnesota farm bureau, who
has done a great deal of research
in tax matters, points to the dang
er of any new sources Of taxation
unless limitation legislation is
adopted that will very strictly linn
it the amount of taxes that can be
levied on farms and other property
Members of the board stressed
the fact that the farm bureau would
not permit itself to be involved in
any partisan political activity in
it's fight for tax reform, which has
dated back through all state admin
istrations since 1920.
