According to the survey, 1,175 of the Morton county farm families were living in their own homes, the high- est average for any of the five coun- ties surveyed. Among the improvements most de- sired by Morton county farmers were roomier houses, cisterns, more con- venient sources of water and house The survey was conducted under the supervision of Clara Borden, Mandan.

North Dakota, lying in the heart of the infested territory, is particularly concerned with these plans. Under the direction of the State Agricultural College extension service and county agricultural agents? counties through- out the state are now organizing for the work of grasshopper control.
