M, H. Swenk (June 15 ~ 30): The severe outbreak of grasshopper 
chiefly of the two-striped grasshopper t Melanoulus bivittatus Saj 
which by the middle of June included Knox, Boyd, eastern Keya Pal 
and the northern parts of Holt and Rock Counties, developed durii 
the last, half of June to include not only all of Holt and Rock 
Counties, but thence south to the Platte River, in Hall, Buffalo, 
and Dawson Counties, west through Custer County and east to in- 
clude Cedar County, thus including altogether all or most of 
sixteen Nebraska counties. Over this area there has been much 
damage in the .alfalfa and .small grain fields, and serious damage 
to corn is now starting as the small grains ripen and the grass- 
hoppers get their wings. The other grasshopper-infested areas 
in the State have about the same status as was described in my 
previous report.
