C. experimental laboratory in Portland, met with greater reione in Lane county than in any oiner aec tton of the atate, the county quota of aeven colonies being exceeded by three. Mr. Fletcher spent Tuesday in Tortland looking over the experi mental work there. The earwiga released in Eugene and Hpringfield were purchased by neighborhood groupi, while those taken to Cottage tJrove were pur chimed by the Cottage Grove chamber of commerce. Arrangements for purr-having the parasitized earwigs and liberating them in Lane county were made by County Agent Fie truer. The earwig fly when ready to lay eggs first seeks out a situation in i which an earwig is biding. As soon I as the fly "smells an earwig, it lays an egg close to the pest. This egg hatches in about WJ seconds Into little "muiraot." ho small that it list visible to the human eye. Th maifrot immediately crawls teword. 'the renting host. It moves for about a millimeter, more or less, stop raises its bodv on its base and wav its hodv so and fro. If no host is en countered, it crawls a short distance and repeats the performance of stop rung and waving its body in aearrn an earwig, and the process ia contin ued ontil a host ia found. men ai Varwir is finally encountered, th mvvnt nttaches itself to tbe host a once. Then the Oregon-reared Fur .noun tarve'w realizes that its nat ural enemy from Kurope baa caught up with It, for the earwig commences kicking and attempts to rub tbe mag got off. These anions of the earwig are to no avail because the maggot ia equipped with rowa of little apines speeially developed for banging on to r.tiropan earwigs. Aftr tbe rontart of the mage with the earwig is made, h parsit bores into tbe body of the host, One imirU th horir of the earwig, th' maggot feeds on tb blood. In a lw weeks the maggot kills the earwig. As the host is dying the maggot crawls out ot tne ioiy or me mrwig. parasite ia then much bigger in sue and forms a "resting case" is which it transforms to a fir. Some general points about the ear .mg parasite: 1. Each female parasite fly pro 1 rtsint VI tz. '. The adult parasite diet Just after the eggs have ben laid. 3. The parasite fly win never be come pest because as the earwigs become less in numbers the fly will become less in numbers, because the parssite fly eU practically an or its needed food material from the body of tbe earwig. , 4. The narasite flies will nter tintiu. nnlv h acrident. Thir bab It- are entirelr different than the -honae flv." 5. The parasite Is now operating In nature in i'ortiend ana we Know that it can survive under western Oregon conditions.. It will probably be able to live and Increase in eastern Oregon wherever the earwir ia iouno fl The narasite will never com- nletelr exterminate the earwig. The beat that cen be hoped for is a re duction in the earwigs now present ami for a check on the number a which tnivht he develooed nroviding the ear wlca were left to reproduce unchecked. 7.

"Grand Hotel" will not be shown this season in this vicinity or in any theater at lower prices than those prevailing for this engagement, ac cording to M(M advices. Tbe product ion is adapted from the widely-read novel of the same name by Vicki Bnum. The screen version is said to represent a blending of salient points of the novel and the Kiiltsefiuent stage play which ran for more than a year in New York. At the same time. Director Edmund Goulding points out, none of the ac tion in the film goes beyond the fur walls of the Berlin hotel from which the story derives, its name. "Grand Hotel" is one of the few stories evpr written, explained Di-: rector Goulding. where one single character dominates but where at least five arc equally important to the story structure. The part of Grusinskaya. the Rus sian dancer, was given to Miss Garbo in the screen treatment of the play.

THE EVIDENCE OF SCIENCE "This is to certify that in 75 repeated cool testa made ot the 4 leading cigarette brnnda . . . measuring the heat content ol each cigarette in B.T.Ui. with.the Oxygen Bomb Calorimeter, it waa shown that; Old fiold avcrsccs 112 B.T.Us, Cooler than Brand X Old Gold average 155 B.T.Us. Cooler than Brand Y Old Gold averages 156 B.T.Us. Cooler than Brand Z "To further verify Old Gold's coolness, the temperature (Fah renheit) of the smoke of each cigarette brand waa checked and Old Gold's smoke waa found to be definitely cooler than the amoke of the other three branda." (.Sisned) NEW YORK TESTINO LABORATORIES G. Brinton Jack, Jr., Dittdor In'' f-.c dent tests conducted by scientists of two lead ing Er . Universities corroborated the findings of thi New . Testing Laboratories. The educators verified conclusively that Old Golds are the coolest of the four leading cigarette brands; indicating the use of finer quality tobaccos, the selection of milder and choicer leaf and the absence of heat-generating flavorings. Purchasing their cigarettes through certified account ants in 20 different sections of the country with widely varying climatic conditions, the scientists said they were able to establish beyond all doubt that Old Golds' coolness was not altered by climatic extremes. "There was no doubting the accuracy of the Oxygen Bomb Calorimeter it is one of the most reliable methodi for measuring heat-content known to Science," said on' of the educators, "so we employed the same type of in scrument. "And when test after test showed Old Golds consist ently cooler than the three other brands, and th Fahren heit temperature of the smoke definitely cooler, there wal no alternative but to decide for Old Golds," he insisted. Inasmuch as coolness in a cigarette requires finer and purer tobaccos and absence of artificial flavoring, this scien tific verdict proves Old Gold a cigarette of choicest tobacco quality pure tobacco without added flavorings. Selections from each lot of cigarettes bought for these tests have been sealed in airtight containers, labeled to show in which sections of the country they were purchased. To any technical or scientific authority a signed report of the cow pleta findings of these two scientisU will be sent on request. P. LoriU Company. Inc., 119 West 40th St., New York City.
