Crickets and Grasshoppers
Crickets and grasshoppers belong to the same family of insects. They both have two pairs of wings and six legs. Both have feelers on their heads and "ears" on their legs. Both make noises.
Crickets and grasshoppers are different in many ways. Crickets are smaller than grasshoppers. They also have extra feelers at the back of their bodies. They do not fly in the air. They make sounds by rubbing their wings together. They eat grain, wool, and other insects. Grasshoppers have strong back legs and can jump ten times the length of their body. They can also fly long distances. They make noise by rubbing their legs against their wings. They eat the leaves of green plants.

Pioneer Homes
Pioneers were very careful about choosing a place to build their homes. They had to have water nearby for drinking and cooking. They also needed many trees around. These were used for building the home and for making fires. The other thing they needed was good soil to grow food.
When the pioneers built a home, they put the walls up first. They cut logs and made slots so they would fit together. Then, they set one log on top of another to make a wall. The roof went last. It was made of big pieces called "clapboard." Then, they covered the roof with bark from the trees.

Germs
Germs enter our bodies in different ways to make us sick. Some germs are in the air and we breathe them in. If you get mumps, it's because the germs were in the air. We also catch chicken pox and colds this way. Sometimes we get sick from food or water that is not pure. Typhoid fever and all kinds of food poisoning are caused by these two things. Another way germs enter our bodies is through scratches or sores in our skin. This is how we get rabies or lockjaw. A few diseases are caused by insect bites. Rocky Mountain spotted fever, malaria, and yellow fever are caused this way.
