Show Grasshopper Control ! Extended to 4000 Acres at Paragonah The Paragonah grasshopper control spraying program, which started on a few small sections of land on a contract to spray from an airplane, proved so successful suc-cessful that the program finally turned into an unusually extensive exten-sive undertaking. After the success of the pre: liminary spraying a contract was signed by Royce Knight, Cedar City ojerator, to cover a solid area of 2500 acres. Before the project was finally completed however, it was extended to cover co-ver 4000 acres, the largest solid block ever treated in this manner man-ner in the state of Utah. Remarkable success was reported re-ported In that alimst a 100 per cent kill of the farm pests was obtained. i |
