Mechanical Bug Catcher
MECHANICAL INSECT CATCHER
CORVALLIfl. OP) The well-known
earicatura of a bespectacled professor
charting an Insect with a buttcrly
net la a out a date at a modern
agricultural college aa a 1904 auto
mobile. The up-to-date scientist, when he
goea bug-bunting, does It by sitting
down and pushing a twitch.
J. O. Chamberlln, federal entomol
ogist at Oregon State college la the
father of today's best bug-hunter. It
consists of large screen funnels
mounted above and below the ends
of an Iron rod about 12 fet long.
Attached to the ends of the funnels
are small bags, Into which the In
aecta are drawn.
A small gasoline motor "evolves
the funnels on the rod. snatching the
Insects, which must fly beck Into the
bags because of the air stream In
duced through the funnels by their
turning.
Besides being effortless. Chamber
lain says the method la much more
successful thsn of old because the
machine may be operated a definite
length of time In a certain area and
the catches compared with - much
more accuracy.

your intestines. That's why you suffer
from griping. Why not try a NATU
RAL laxative food Kellogg's AH
