Grasshopper
Threatening District of
Harrisburg Hillsides
Albany Linn county's first Krasshopper scourpre of
magnitude was investigated this week-end by County Agent
Floyd C. Mullen and B. G. Thompson, assistant entomologist
at Oregon State college, who found
an area of 1000 acres, encompassing
seven farms, in the Dlamon hill
district, east of Harrisburg. to be
suffering extensive damage from
huge swarms of the Insects.
It's by far the worst infestation
I have ever seen west of the Cascade
mountains," Thompson said.
The county agent described the
hillsides over which the insects
have passed as appearing to have
been scorched by an August sun.
Most of the country infested Is pas
ture and range land. One 40-acre
field on the E. F. Prince farm has
been entirely stripped of wheat.
According to Thompson weather
conditions are in favor of the far
mers, for when the present genera
tion of adults is gone they will not
leave successors, it was thought, as
the cold weather prevents hatching
of grasshopper eggs. Control was
advised with poisoned bran.
It was not feared the infestation
would spread.
