LOCUSTS WITII. THE "W;" : ' ; j South Carolina, in the Piedmont sec tion, is due this year to be visited, by what the scientists call - brood VI . of the "seyenteen year locust." There are seventeen other broods of the seventeen year Species now operat ing in North America and all schedul ed to appear-in due course, but of all of them the brood VI now due in this State is the most virile and wide spread. It j will Inevitably appear r in scattered localities 'covering much of the Northern; and Central States be tween the Hudson and the Mississippi rivers and extending along the Appa lachian range into northern Georgia and South Carolina. Other locusts of a recurrent .variety are miscalled "seventeen- year." . They occur only oncn every . thirteen years. - . .The seven.teen.year. locusts are more terrifying than dangerous- They coma in great swarms;, covering trees and lawns; littering fields in. their search for provender, but mostly, connnea to. the' trees tin whieh they lived before their resurrection. They claw and cut limbs and foliage to a degree of the "plagues,?! or as that committed by the army - grasshoppers and " worms that from time to time-infest- agricultural sections.
