Pleasant, Iowa, says: About 70 years ago my grandfather was agent for the Pawnee Indians on their reservation in what is now western Nebraska. I have often heard my father, who was then a boy, tell of these Indians eating grass hoppers and the interesting way in which they caught them. They would dig a deep hole in the ground and then, choosing a time when there was no wind and when a fire would burn on the prairie slowly and could be kept under control, they would encircle sev eral acres around this hole with a ring of fire and drive the hoppers into the hole and capture them by the bushel. They were then dried and ground into meal to be mixed with their corn meal and made into bread.
