A. THOMPSON, manager of the
South New Mexico Farmers' as
sociation, is campaigning to des
troy the grasshoppers In the upper
valley. While the hoppers have ap
peared in large numbers they are in
no such quantity as' over in the Pee8
valley, but they are In sufficiently
large numbers to do a great deal of
damage. Mr. Thompson has had state
entomologist D. E. Merrill, of State
College, make a trip over the valley
to suggest action to tne urans. "
entomologist says if the weeds are
cleaned up along the ditches and
roads, things will be much Improved.
He also suggests the construction and
operation of "hopperdozers" for catch
ine as manv errasshODDers as possible.
Mr. Merrill's letter to Mr. Thompson,
following his visit to the upper val
ley, says:
On my visit to your region this week
I found that you had plenty of grass
hoppers that are native with you, but
there was no .sign of a scourge. You
will doubtless have trouble in places
with the grasshoppers on the later
crops as you did last year and sev
eral years previous, if you do not use
some of the means at your command
to thin out their ranks now before they
have reached the adult stage. When
they have come to the adult, winged
stage they are very difficult to treat
and they "are large and eat more and
will have eaten for a longer time even-
as young ones. By reducing their
numbers now you may avoid any ap
preciable damage to your crops. Then
look out for the p'reventive. cultural
treatment to reduce their numbers in
succeeding years.
Worse Where Weeds.
The hoppers, so far as 1 could see
through the region, are worse along
fields that have lots of creeds along
the borders and along ditches that are
badly grown to weeds. They were
plentiful along roadsides where there
were weeds for protection. Attention
to such places makes for a better ap
pearing farm and countryside and les
sens the number of brceiing places.
Stir up the soil in these places in the
winter or spring as well as keep the
weeds down In the summer. The sum
mer weeds furnish resting places for
the hoppers and also protection from
some of their bird enemies that would

SCREEN CAMPAIGN
PLANNED BY BOARD
Health Xeaaee iB CMkuafeaMa t" Be
Combatted; Saaabth to Be Taught
1b City Schoehi.
Monday night the school board
launched a movement to screen-El Paso
from the ntes. If the suggestion of
the board is carried out, provided it
Is within the province of the city coun
I. owners and landlords with dwell
ing's to rent will be compelled to have
them properly screened. That this
suggestion be made to the city coun
cil, was made by J. E. Morgan, after
the reading of a letter from alderman
W. & Clayton. The alderman in his
letter dwelt on the necessity for clean
liness, carrying it out by the proper
screening of houses. Alderman Clay
ton stated that the greatest problem
existed in Chihuahuita, and suggested
that the children of that section be
taught the necessity of cleanliness, in
lectures to be given by the teachers of
the schools. The alderman cited one
case in his letter, which he said had
bfkn nl,l Mm . , .. ,
J siclan. It was the case nf a mti nik-
Mexican baby who had been left alone.
So weak was the child, the alderman
said, that it was helpless to resist
swarm of flies which infested the
home. As a result of the attacs of the
files, the alderman said the physician
told him that the child's eyesight was
permanently lost.
The alderman had- something to say
about children disturbing the enjoy
ment of those who attended the band
concerts at Cleveland square. These
cuiioren. ne said, were not the chil
dren of Chihuahuita. the latter loving
music too well.
Compulsory education is the propo
sition that is now agitating the school
board. Dr. E. H. Ervin. president of
the board, is strongly in favor of a
law of this kind being passed. Com
pulsory education is his hobby and he
i working to carry it out. The basic
principle of the movement is to take
voung boys and girls of school age off
the street Education Is the solution
Of mOSt difficulties 1 lh. ilnntni'. k.
lief. Only the present lack of equip
ment prevents the board, from carrying
out the plan of compulsory education,
it was stated.
In order that Spanish, considered
one of the most important studies,
might be taught in the schools, four
vacancies have been created. At the
beginning- of the fall term Snnn.sh
will be taught in all the schools. The
classes will include the first and fifth
grades. Applicants for this position
must not only be able to read and
write the language. but must also be
able to speak it fluently .
The basement of the Lamar school
will be repaired and fitted up as a
kindergarten and sewing room. The
proposition of moving the kindergar
ten from the Sunset school to the
viias is oeing considered. The Sunset
school is located near the Mesa which
is equipped with a kindergarten, a.id
by moving the equipment to the "Vilas,
it is thought, more children will be
served.
The suggestion of W. A. Burke su
perintendent of the manual training
department, that a training depart
ment, be Installed at the Vilas school,
was taken under advisement.
The resignation of Miss Mamie Sex
ton, principal of the San Jacinto
school, was accepted.
The schools have $13,585.71 to their
credit as shown by the report of school
auditor F. E. Sawyer.

I think you can keep the numbers

has been done in other sections and
there is no reason why it can not be
done here. It Is only a matter f cin
vincing the nople that It is neces
sary. You will always have hoppers.
There Is no magic way to cbarm them
away. Foresight and intelligent ac
tion In the matter will do the work
necessa ry.
One species of hopper you have" In
great numbers will be full grown now
in a few days. They are beginning to
come to the adult stage now. It Is
one of the damaging kind. So you will
have to act now to get it A second
species, in less numbers, will be ma
tured about July 1. The third, and
largest in numbers and In size of In
dividuals and so most damaging, will
not be matured till about the middle
of July. It Is rtow very small. It Is
the one that damages the late- crops
most. Get them now before they ma
ture ua you nave tnem out of the way.
Use Ifenperdezer.
You can reduce the numbers without
much trouble or expense by using the
hopperdozer and the poisoned mix
tures. You can not get all of them, but
you can get enough to bring their
numbers down to normal. But you -will
all have to do it .Your association
should be able to effect that The
hoppers from an uncleared field will
soon cover a cleared one and the
thrifty man be made to lose the bene
fit of his work. You will have to
come to this matter of cooperative
control sooner or late, and it better
be sooner.
Use ef the nopperdozer.
In a recent notice the experiment
station recommended the use of the
hopperdozer as a means for getting rid
of some of the grasshoppers in fields
after a damaging infestation was no
ticed. From the nature of the machine
it will be seen that it is most effective
if used early in the season before the
hoppers have reached the adult winged
stage. At that time the "nymphs,"
or young hoppers, can not fly out of
the way nor can they jump so far but
that they usually strike the machine
somewhere. And, once in the liquid
in the pan, they are less able than the
adults to crawl, swim or jump out
Measures for the preventing of the
hatching of the eggs are to be first
considered. Then watch closely to see
if many young hatch out and if they
do, use the hopperdozer when they are
young; do not wait and watch to see
if the hopperdozer will have to be used.
Use it and then watch. Every young
hopper killed means a saving in what
it would eat to grow to maturity, and
it stops any risk that more eggs than
ever will come from this rising gene
ration before being killed, possibly.
Ktr FfeM Work.
The hopperdozer is manifestly better
adapted for field work. Usually small
patches may be cleared in ways suited
to them in particular.
The essential parts of a typical ma
chine are the pan. the back stop or
shield, and the runners or wheels for
transporting the machine.
A hopperdozer to be puUed bv hand
may be made by taking sheet iron, bet
ter if galvanized, and making a pan
8 feet long and one foot wide wit!?
front side and ends two inches high
and the back turned up one foot Or
the back may be made about four in
ches high a-d the extra height made
by canvas on frame. Triangular end
pieces may be put in and the whole
rivited and soldered till water tight
Runners made of two by four inch
timbers or of metal, such as old wagon
tire, suould be put under either end
and allowed to project about a foot in
front of and behirid the pan so it will
ride better. The rope for pulling the
machine Is fastened to the front end
of the runners. It Is better if tho
hitch is made so the power is applied
at the end. for example, a man or boy
at either end. leaving the space directly
in irum ot me pan open. A partition
get more of them if they could not i n tne middle of the pan keeps the
liquid from slopping: too much. If the
hoppers are In the older stares, tho
one foot back may be too low. In that
case, increase the height with a can
vas shield as desired for back and
ends. A strengthening cleat across the
bottom and up the back of the pan
helps greatly. A device to scare up the
hoppers before the edge of the pan
reaches them is made by tying a small
rod or pole to the hitch ropes so It
will drag parallel to the front of the
pan.
To Use Xaehlse.
To use the machine, pour Into the
pan about three-quarters of an inch'
of water and add a quart of cheap
kerosene. Wet the shield with water
and oil. also. Run the machine over
the region infested and remove the
nuppers or supply liquid as necessary.
The cost of the machine ought not to
be over 12.00. Cheap oil may be had
lor a few cents a gallon, especially if
bought in b

CANTALOUPE CROP IN
PECOS VALLEY SHORT
Boswell, N. M., June 10. Apparently
the danger from hail to the 700 acres
of cantaloupes is past and everything
is looking good for a good production
of melons this year for the eastern
markets. They will come in from
July 20 to 25. the very best time to
catch good markets when there is lit
tle competition.
Last year hail struck the 204 acres
ana riddled many of the vines on June
k T.h.t year the vln and
healthy in some 450 acres, and the
elons are as big as marbles.
Though ther were TOO acres plante'a

Attorney General MeReyaeidn Believes
Plau to Pfcinolve U. P. a S. P.
Liaew Is Vague.
Washington. D. C. June 1C. Attor
ney general McReynolds disapproves
both of the two latest plans for the
dissolution of the Union Pacific mer
ger which a few days ago were sub
mitted by the Union Pacific raiiroaa to
the United States court at St. PauL
The attorney general will attend the
nearing on the plans to be heard on
Thursday at St. Paul by circuit judges
Sanborn. Hook and Smith and will op
pose the adoption of either plan on the
ground that each is too vague to meet
the requirements of the supreme
court's decision ordering the dissolution
m. me merger under, the Sherman
law.
Mr. McReynolds indicated that he
would not go before the court with an
insistence of a receivership, for the
merger, as he said that was a question
for the court. If a plan of dissolution
of the merger, satisfactory to the court,
is not submitted by July l. the supreme
court mandate provides for a govern
ment receivership to accomplish the
dissolution.
Mr. McReynolds said he sympathised
with the efforts which Robert H. Lovett
and.Jther attorneys for the Union
Pacific had made to draft a plan of dis
integration but that he could not bring
himself to agree to the propositions
now before the court. In his opinion
tne plans io not provide a definite
time for the surreml. r bv the I'nion
