"There is no comparison. This year

to the pine beetle ravages."
Success in solving successful con

"There is little known about the
bxblts of the insect and practically
nothing about the parasitic insects

said.
"What knowledge there is. Is car

The seaplane landed at 11 p. m.,

aircraft dropped anchor and small

the men. and then ordered theni to
