Word of the possible "houper came when W. P. Flint, chief etomologlst for the Illinois College of Agriculture announced that a preliminary examination in Central Illinois showed a number of grasshopper eggs was three to five times greater than in the fall of 1935. Flint said that it was impossible to forecast the of the eggs which will hatch next spring.

The Central Illinois check-up marked tht 1 beginning of the annual survey to determine the location and density of grasshopper egg beds. Since many grasshoppers are still alive and capable of laying ugs. Flint said it was impossible to start the survey early. It would be well for farmers to devise some means to get rid of grasshoppers on their farms now. by burning off grass, cleaning out fence etc.
