HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, MAY 13, 1937. Pine Beetle Inroads Being Checked Man's counter attack against the diminutive pine beetle, arch destroy er of pine forests in Oregon and Washington, has made important progress in the past year, according to A. J. Jaenicke in charge of re gional insect control work for the U. S. forest service. Man's efforts have "been effectively abetted by nature in providing severe winters and im proved moisture conditions in the past two years, Jaenicke said. Cred it for progress he attributes to coop eration of timberland owners and administrative agencies with the ad vice of the U. S. Bureau of Ento mology and Plant Quarantine. Show ing the seriousness of the previous situation, the forester stated that in the five years previous to 1936, the western pine beetle had destroyed 15 times as much pine timber as forest fires and approximately as much timber as all pine sawmills cut in Oregon and Washington. CCC tree troopers under forest service direction in the past year have halted beetle inroads on more than 100,000 acres of privately owned and national forest timber in the Deschutes national forest area near Bend, Oregon; on approximately 50, 000 acres in the Ochoco national for est near Prineville, Oregon, and on about 30,000 acres near Bly, Oregon, in the Fremont national forest. Similar beetle control projects have been completed by the CCC under the Indian Service, on more than 100,000 acres of ponderosa pine timber on the Yakima Indian reser vation in Washington; on large areas in the Warm Springs Indian reser vation northwest if Bend, and on the Klamath reservation north of Klamath Falls in Oregon where work will be completed this month. Beetle control on approximately 40,000 acres of Deschutes national forest timber southeast of Bend will be completed about May 15, accord ing to Jaenicke. Jaenicke stated that the general situation is much better today than for several years. Apart from con trol projects he attributes this change to improvement in moisture condi tions and to the unusually cold re cent winters. "Beetles which hiber . nate under the bark of infested trees are killed in large numbers by sub zero temperatures," Jaenicke said. "It has also been determined that the long period of sub-normal rainfall in the pine region had lowered the vitality of trees and made them more susceptible to beetle attack."

The pine beetle is still a serious problem in Klamath, Lake, Crook, Wasco and Grant counties in Oregon, Jaenicke said. Car Inspection Cuts Accidents Faulty, defective motor vehicle equipment is involved in more than 15 per cent of all fatal traffic acci dents in Oregon. Eliminate the factor of mechanical defects and the ratio of accidents declines. Control this menace that results from the negligence of car owners and a sizeable share of the answer to that ghastly question "why were 354 persons killed on our state high ways in 1936?" will be found. This is the warning and advice of the Oregon State Motor association in advocating a state-wide drive for compulsory vehicle inspection laws. The need for such periodic inspec tion is becoming more and more ap parent to city and state officials, the motor association traffic safety ex aminers remark as they point to the "horrible example" of Portland, where before the required testing of motor vehicles was instituted late in 1936, fully half of the automobiles at large on the city streets were unfit to be driven, as 50 per cent of the cars tested had to be rejected at the Portland inspection station many of these appearing several times before their basic safety devices could re ceive the seal of safe operation. Good Cows Need Grain With Grass Corvallis Feeding supplemental grain rations to cows on spring pas ture may not seem economical right at the time, but when considered over the entire lactation period it is definitely shown to be economical, says I. R. Jones, associate professor of dairy husbandry at Oregon State college. A cow in good flesh when turned on pasture may hold up in her production for a month or so, but in time she must decline in produc tion to the level possible when eat ing grass alone, he says. To be of value, however, it is essential that the supplemental grain be fed from the start, because it is nearly impos sible to restore the flow once it has been allowed to decrease consider ably. BALANCED PROGRAM VITAL. A balanced safety program is of equal importance with a balanced municipal budget, reminds the Ore gon State Motor association.
