There will be some sort of an insect which will feed upon the eggs of the grasshopper. It generally works that way, he explained. When a pest comes there is always something proâ€" vided to remedy the situation and reâ€" store the balance, He informed us there were places in the West where already there were reliable reports of grasshopper eggs being, eaten by some unknown insect.

He drove his car only a little but had to have screens made for the windows and a special screen fitted over the front of the car to keep grasshoppers from clogging the flow of air. The grasshoppers would attack and destroy nearly everything which was green and there was not a thing to stop the attack, He had poisoned millions of them he was certain, but other millions came along. to take their places. They could devour more poison bait than he could supply, "making them spit," but apart for that there was no interest in them, Some folks in the lake districts of the north use them as bait for fishâ€" ing, Fighting grasshoppers in the Canâ€" adian West is something with which the average farmer in the East is not familiar, There have been seasons when grasshoppers were plentiful enâ€" ough, but they have not been a pest or a plague.

J Many Good Records Made By Shorthorns British millers also are showing an interest in Garnet wheat, provided they can obtain it free from a mixâ€" ture of other strains. It requires special treatment and may be used in blending with other types of wheat to produce a satisfactory flour. Western grain companies reported they could place 10 cars more of pure Garnet seed wheat than are available with Western farmers this spring. Part of this demand is attributed to the government‘s cropâ€"testing plan which has now been in operation four years and is showing farmers the desirability of having wheat of a pure strain suited to local conditions in order to command the highest prices. __ Following a long controversy â€" the Canada Grain Act was amended a year ago to provide for separate grades for Garnet and the new reâ€" gulations come into effect this fall.
