Locust Outbreak Traced Across West From Idaho to Oregon
Dr A. Packard returned from a Western survey by the United States Entomological Commission detailing Rocky Mountain locust migrations. Swarms moved from Boise City Idaho into Northern Nevada via Bruneau Valley, then into Nevada’s Owyhee and Burnt River regions destroying crops. In Oregon, swarms moved from Montana or Idaho into Burnt River country around July 10, threatening Walls Walla wheat. The commission notes a related Pacific coast grasshopper population, suggests this locust is responsible for past Oregon and California wheat devastation, and plans to present findings to Congress.
