GRASSHOPPERS THREATEN UNITED STATES

Grasshoppers threaten to wreak heavy damage to grain and forage crops in Montana and the Dakotas this year. There were many hoppers in these states, and in parts of Texas, last year, and the eggs they laid are now hatching in large numbers. If climatic and other conditions favor the growth of the young insects, the outbreak may reach serious proportions.
