PLAGUE OF GRASSHOPPERS A MOTOR MASSACRE. A motor-car that arrived at Dubbo from Trangio, New Soutuh Wales,, the other day. presented an interesting sight. The radiator was literally covered with dead grasshoppers, and the entire front of the car, including the _ wind-screen, was a dirty yellow, duo J[ to the massacre when the car cut its way through the thick mass of insects. 11 The driver said that the grasshop- ti pers were as thick as dust for about j, half a mile, and not only was he oblig- e ed to go slowly, but he had to get out d on one occasion and sweep the dead C insects from the radiator, to which c owing to the heat, the victims wero stuck fast. a Fortunately, little damage is being done by these pests this year, as they did not make their appeara'nce until the crops were well advanced.
