Mid-Oregon
Buildings Hit
By Termites
Termites, wood - eating insects
believed by some to be destruc
tive only in the damper sections
3f the stale, are causing consid
erable damage to mid Oregon
buildings, James E. Ragsdale,
general manager of a Portland
service company, reported here to
day.
And, he noted, the attacks of the
wood eaters are not being .onlined
to old buildings, or to smaller
structures.
In Bend, a part of a church has
been extensively damaged by the
termites, and it is estimated that
he repair will cost around $1900,
'jecause of the prolonged infesta
tion. In another Central Oregon
town, a bank building, compare
'ively new, is under termite at
tack.
Ragsdale, who is to establish an
ffice in Bend, said there are 41
lifferent species of termites in the
United States. These fall into
'hree groups: Drywood termites,
lampwood termites and subterra
nean termites. Ragsdale noted that
lbout 95 per cent of all termite
iamage in this country is done by
his last group.
"The termite has a highly spec
ialized caste organization, the
members of each caste being par
ticularly adapted by bodily devel
opment and habits to perform one
special function of family life,"
Ragsdale said. The castes even
include soldier termites, who
guard the colony from natural en
emies. And at the head of each colony,
Ragsdale, said, is a king and
queen.
