B (BenT Tucker has reported that the re-; cent infestation of army worms disappeared after farmers ap plied a combination of toxa phene and para'nion on the af fected land He said, however, that a new infestation may occur in about; 30 days when me second brood hatches. There may be three broods of army worm; in a sin - gle sea'on. Local farmers had more trou - b!e getting rid of the insects! than was experienced in Klam- ath county, where DDT proved effective. Tucker said DDT had no noticeable effect on Jackson county army worms. He ex plained it took 10 per cent toxa nhene with four ounces of para thion per acre, or two ounces of actual toxaphene and four ounc es of actual parathion to defeat the insect here. Works Rapidly He said in some instances tox- aphene alone or heptichlor work' ed effectively. The mxaphene parathmn combination, howev - er, works more rapidly and reaches more insects, including grasshoppers as well as army worms. The applications were mostly in liquid form to avoid wind drift. The spray was applied during the evening, while bees were inactive. By the time the less to them, he explained Tiie county agent suggested ; Jackson county residents remain j on a "casual lookout" for the second army worm brood. He j said clusters of eggs, covered with protective dark hair from the under side of the adult moth. may be found on the under side of leaves and even on buildings. The adult moth lays 1.500 to 2.000 eggs in a single cluster. Destruction of the clusters be fore the eggs hatch may reduce the problem somewhat, he said.

When the jbulk of an ocean liner looms ahead you have the impression you are going to run smack in'.o it. But suddenly it slides by and the passengers wave from the up per decks far above you as ou toot your horn. The 101-mile canal is one of the greatest engineering feats of our time.

Seen from the air. the canal, which varies in width from 190 to 305 feet, looks like a dribble of water in a waste of sand that stretches from Cairo to Sinai. Dotted along the banks are little French style towns which derive their life from the water wav and house the men who keep it working. Most important of these is Is mailia. where the Suez Canal Zone Company has its main tech nical and administration head quarters. Controlling the mass of ship ping 14.666 vessels last year is an intricate operation in volving precise timing and skill ed pilots who guide the ships up three main stretches of the canal.

However, tne hot. dry w eat h - er is creating considerable haz - aid to alfalfa, the county agent pointed out.
