Mormon Cricket One of
Farmer's Worst Enemies
The Mormon cricket, essentially
an insect of rlie mountains, has been
a destructive pest in the 1’nited
States since 1S48. • It is always pres¬
ent in the high, rugged hills of Colo¬
rado, Idaho, Wyoming and Montana.
Now and then it becomes abrnidant
enough to leave its natural habitat
and migrate, in great bands, into the
-ultiv ited valleys. These outbreaks,
as a rule, last from two to six years,
or until the crickets are overcome
by man, by natural enemies, or by
weather conditions.
Mormon crickets usually migrate
in bands varying from the size of a
city block to a square mile or more.
The bands are very dense, often
with 100 to 5 (H) crickets to the square
foot. From the time they hatch in
the spring until they disappear in
the fall tlie crickets are almost con¬
stantly in motion. Once under way,
the band travels in a straight line,
stopping at nothing. If it meets a
board fence or a house, it tries to
climb over the top, rather than go¬
ng around.

But bad grammar, and the constant

Make it a practice to read the dic¬

By that I do not mean to begin with

I mean to study pronunciation and
meanings, and to make sure that you
will remember them.
Whenever you are in doubt about
a word look it up.
Otherwise you are going to tie em¬

Good talkers always start with an

As for slang, It is often effective, but
it must be used with great intelligence.
The person who employs the some

If possible learn another language.

A relative of mine, whose business
is rather a dreary one, takes two weeks
off every year and spends them in
climbing the tall peaks of Oregon and
< ‘allfornia.
Not long ago, having no new mouu
tains to scale in his own section of
the country, he made a trip to Switzer¬
land and climbed some of the steep

The last time I saw him he was re
gretting that he was too old to try to
cross the Himalayas in a plane.
Most of us are adventurers at heart,
and it is too bad that we ail do not
have the courage or the opportunity
to go forth now and then and take
quite unnecessary chances.
Ours is a race that craves excite¬
ment of some sort or other.
To be timid is to be miserable.
I would not advise young men to
take up the business of lion-taming, or
of “stunt” flying, hut i would advise
them, if they are living humdrum
lives to go out and find a little excite¬
ment ever so often, to search for ad
ventures that hold some sort of a
thrill, and which they will remember
happily for all their days.
