LARRIMER Bureau of Entomology, Department of Agriculture Hungry hordes of grasshoppers now threaten with total destruction thousands of acres of crops over all of the Great Plains area of the west. Two successive years when the weather, the crops, and even the markets have been against the farmers of this area have left them in no condition to withstand the plague that now descends upon them. Worst Since 1876 Grasshoppers are swarming in outbreak abundance throughout the western half of the United States, with local outbreaks occurring in the north central states and eastward to New York. It is generally believed that when two dry summers occur in succession the second one usually produces serious outbreaks of grasshoppers. This is held to explain the origin of the present outbreak—probably the worst since 1876. At least four species are involved: the lesser migratory grasshopper, the differential grasshopper, the two-striped grasshopper and the clear-winged grasshopper. Complete Destruction of Crops Severe injury is being done in local areas over all of the infested territory, while complete destruction of crops—small grains, flax, alfalfa and corn—has occurred in considerable areas in North Dakota, Minnesota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Iowa, eastern Colorado and western Kansas, with south central Needs New Shoes Jacob Miller, of Pleasant Hill, Mo., 93, is shown wearing a pair of boots he purchased seventy-one years ago.

Many counties have appropriated thousands of dollars and some state money has been made available for purchase of poisoned bait to be furnished free to farmers... In the worst infested areas, however, such funds seem now to have become exhausted and many appeals are being made for federal funds. It has been estimated that $500,000 would be required to finance from now to the end of the season the campaign in south central South Dakota alone; millions would be required to take care of the Miss Ruth Taunton has returned from a vacation of two weeks spent at the beaches.

One of "4 Horsemen" Is Here on a Visit At least four species are involved: the lesser migratory grasshopper, the differential grasshopper, the two-striped grasshopper and the clear-winged grasshopper. Complete Destruction of Crops Severe injury is being done in local areas over all of the infested territory. While complete destruction of crops—small grains, flax, alfalfa and corn—has occurred in considerable areas in North Dakota, Minnesota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Iowa, eastern Colorado and western Kansas, with south central Nebraska as the area where the situation has reached the stage of a catastrophe. Damage may be expected to continue through August of this year, and, under weather conditions favorable to the grasshoppers, the general situation may be even worse next year. Warning a Year Ago Community-wide action is necessary in fighting the pest. This was the advice given by the federal and state entomologists more than a year ago and repeated last spring. The farmers, owing to the drouth conditions last year, can hardly be blamed for laxity, however; for the same dry season that last year aided the grasshoppers to increase in abundance also limited crop production in the same area so as to necessitate seed loans to the afflicted farmers. State and federal entomologists have pooled their forces in organizing control campaigns and in general because of the co-operation of the extension forces and county commissioners, there The question of financing the campaigns is the real problem. Many counties have appropriated thousands of dollars and some state money has been made available for purchase of poisoned bait to be furnished free to farmers.. In the worst infested areas, however, such funds seem now to have become exhausted and many appeals are being made for federal funds. It has been estimated that $500,000 would be required to finance from now to the end of the season the campaign in south central South Dakota alone; millions would be required to take care of the outbreaks in other states. It has been stated that no federal funds are available through regular appropriations. Now In Flying Stage In the meantime the hoppers have reached the flying stage and swarms have already begun to drift with prevailing winds from infested territory to regions previously free from the pest or where the grasshoppers were destroyed by control measures earlier in the season. These attacks will continue for at least another month. Senator Swanson is the most optimistic man we know of. He wants the League of Nations to do something about the low price of silver.
