Mormon Cricket One of
Farmer’s Worst Enemies
Tile Mormon cricket, essentially
an Insect of the mountains, lias been
a destructive pest in the United
States since 1848. It Is always pres¬
ent !n the high, rugged hills of Colo¬
rado, Idaho, Wyoming and Montana.
Non- and then it becomes abundant
enough to leave its natural habitat
and migrate, in great hands, into the
eultiv-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 c rickets usually migrate
in hands varying from the size of a
city block to a square mile or more.
The hands are very dense, often
with 1(H) to 500 crickets to the square
foot. From tlie time they hatch in
the spring until they disappear in
the fall the crickets are almost con¬
stantly in motion. Once under way,
the hand 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.

The thing that may count most
against young people hunting jobs Is
slovenly speech.
Slovenly There can he no
Snaprh sound objection to
slang, If it Is smart
slang and used In moderation.
But bad grammar, and the constant
use of expressions which are constant¬
ly employed r>y young men and women
who are trying to he bright, are a
positive handicap.
It Is easy to say that you inherited
your speech from parents who had no
chance to get an education, but it is
nonsense. *'
Some of the ablest and most brilliant
men and women of the time came from
parents who spoke English very lame¬
ly; others from parents who spoke with
foreign accents.
Do not try to speak elaborately, or
to use big words.
Speak directly, clearly and forcibly.
Know the exact meaning of every
word you use.
Associate as much as is possible
with people who use correct speech.
Head books by writers who know how
to use good English.
*******
Make it a practice to read the dic¬
tionary.
By that I do not mean to begin with
A and end with Z.
1 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 he ein
barrassed some time when you Poun¬
der through a sentence and awaken
the smiles of those who hear you.
Good talkers always start with an
advantage. But they must be good
talkers, not merely glib talkers.
They must know what they are talk¬
ing about, and where to find the words
to do it.
*******
As for slang, It is often effective, hut
It must be used with great intelligence.
The person uho employs the same
slang phrase over and over again is going
to weary those with or to whom he speaks
before long, and be pul down for a hope¬
less bore.
If possible learn another language. i
It will help you with your own tongue.
A foundation in Latin is good, hut
by no means necessary.
Your own language is quite sulli
dent for all the necessities of con¬
versation and for many of the orna
ments.
Read and listen. Read and listen

running away for
the first time feels a thrill that he may
never know again.
“For to admire and for to see,” is
one of the real objects in life.
Never having had the opportunity to
run away to sea, I am not sure if that
is a pleasant and profitable undertak
ing.
But 1 shall always regret that it
was not numbered among my experi¬
ences.
I often wonder why people who live
near high mountains are not continu¬
ally scaling them.
1 notice that those who have
climbed mountains, climb them again
and again when they have a chance.
*******
| 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
California.
Not long ago, having no new moun
tains to scale in Ids own section of
the country, he made a trip to Switzer
land and climbed some of the steep
est of the Alps.
The last time I saw him lie 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 all 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 he miserable.
I would not advise young men to
take up the business of lion-tamir.g, or
of "stunt” flying, but 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.
*******
I am sure that it Is more the ex¬
citement of the game than the desire
to get money and still more money
which leads so many men to the stock
market.
A memory that is filled with adven
ture and experience is the kind of a
memory 1 should love to have.
This is a world that is well worth see
ing. Travel is worth many times its cost
Since Marco Polo’s time, and doubt
less long before that men have gone
into new and strange countries, jusi
for the pleasure of doing something
that others have not had the courag<
to do.
There is, of course, no place lik
home. But there are many othe
places worth seeing. And the eour
age and curiosity of many adventui
■rs Is well worth emulation.
