Xz z— < WeXeXeXeXeXeXeXeXeXeXeXeXeXeXeXeXeXeXeXexeX«eXeXeXele>XeXeXeXeXeXsSiCeXeXeXeXe2»S«»XeXeXeXeíí' Because of the prevalence of o- possuni to Western Oregon areas as a relative newcomer it seems appro priate that we quote a short item from “Science News Letter” for No vember 7 on the subject as a means of providing local inhabitants with more information about this unusual animal. “The Virginia opossum, Didelphis (marsupialis), is the only pouched animal living wild in the United States. “A member of the marsupial order, the female opossum has a warm, fur- lined pouch on her abdomen into which creep the tiny babies as soon as they are born, only 12 days after conception. At this time the babies weigh about l/15th of an ounce-over a dozen could fit into a teaspoon. As soon as the babies struggle into the pouch, they attach themselves se curely onto one of her 13 nipples which are no bigger than the head of a pin. If there are more than 13 chil dren in the brood; the ecxess soon starve to death. “The surviving babies grow rapid ly. In about a week they are ten times as large as they were at birth. When they are ten weeks old, they start to emerge from their snug pouch and climb onto their mother’s back, holding tightly to her long hair. After about 14 weeks, they are inde pendent and on their own. “When fully grown, the opossum is an unattractive creature, about the size of a cat, with a pointed ra t’s face, naked ears and long black or grey hair growing over a dense, cream-white undercoat. Its tail, bare or scaly and burred at the base, is prehensile and can be used as a fifth paw to hang from a tree or hold onto food. “Considered one of the ugliest and stupidest of creatures in the United States, the opossum has the peculiar habit of ‘playing possum,’ or going into a coma-like state of shock when frightened and rolling over as if dead. “Yet this unattractive tree-climb ing nocturnal animal is aiding re search, for scientists are able to ob serve the tiny babies at different stages of their embryonic develop ment. Other animal embryos develop inside the mother’s uterus and hence are inaccessible.” As additional information, opossum seldom live to be more than seven years old. They are solitary in nature and may range a mile or more in one night acting as scavengers but feed ing also on small rodents, insects, frogs, berries, fruits, chickens, or eggs. Apparently he finds food sup plies abundant locally, since we have been surprised that relatively few complaints have come in about poul try and egg losses due to opossum. Americans have the most plentiful and most diverse food supply of any people in the world, for which we need to be thankful, but even so there Ls no room for compla cency. A cereal leaf beetle, an immi grant from foreign lands, this year infested 115,500 acres of wheat, oats and barley in 85 counties of Indiana, Michigan, and Ohio. And a virus com plex of com -the nation’s most valu able grain crop-appeared in the south and is now invading the Corn- belt. Nearly a million acres of U. S. com was infected this year. Heavy infestations ef the cereal leaf beetle have been treated, and quarantines have been set up to pre vent its spread. Adequate control measures are now lacking. Our scientists are now (1) search ing for strains of small grains and com with built-in resistance to pests, (2) seeking parasites and predators that will control the cereal leaf beet le. and (3' determining how the virus is transmitted in com as a means of finding a method of control. These threats to our productivity are serious, but just as research has solved serious problems in the past, we are confident that research will proride the necessary answers >rder blanks for forest seedlings m state nurseries should be filed soon as possible by landowners o are planning planting activity -ing December.

Christmas tree grow- should be particularly interested the <3-0’ noble fir, a top quality Christmas tree species recommended for cultivated plantings and cooler slopes where competitive vegetation, particularly grasses, is at a mini mum. There are presently many small areas of the county which are non productive or have low levels of pro duction, although most of them once supported fine stands of timber. Na ture will eventually restore the for est, where seed trees are adequate and intervening land use practices do not interfere, but the process is slow. Planting can speed up the process. Cost sharing assistance is available in most cases upon application to the county ASCS office, St. Helens. Threats to the nation’s grain crop by the cereal leaf beetle was referred to in this column last week witlwut any explanation of the pest other than that it had been introduced into our country. To really understand the seriousness of the situation, a few more facts are in order. Cereal leaf beetles are black and red and about 3/16 of an inch long.. The wing covers and head are a met allic bluish black. The legs and thor ax are red. These insects feed on grass and grains. Damage by the adult is iden tified by longitudinal holes in leaves while the larvae chew out long strips between the veins. Heavy feeding by high numbers of the insect can de stroy a crop. Cereal leaf beetles have been a ser ious pest in Europe, Asia, and north ern Africa for many years. The beet les are thought to have entered the United States by way of the St. Law rence Seaway about 1959, but it was- not until 1962 that the beetles were identified on American crops in Mi chigan and Indiana. Plant quarantine inspectors had previously intercept ed cereal leaf invaders, but somehow another importation occurred. The presence of this beetle in the Michigan, Indiana, Ohio area poses a threat to the entire cereal grain production of the nation and to Cana da if it cannot be contained within its present area of occupation and controlled in some manner. Although several insecticides a r e effective more information is needed, particu larly on timing. Extensive research Christmas tree growers will be able to add another species to their many kinds already being produced, ac cording to information Barney Doug lass, U. S. Forest Service, related to us recently while reviewing herbicide uses in relation to this crop. Douglass indicated that state nur series have Jeffrey pine in plant beds, but none of the seedlings will be available for planting until the 1965 season. A native of the Pacific Coast region from Oregon to Califor nia, this species may fill some spe cial needs. Resembling the ponderosa pine but slower growing, and with even longer needles and larger cones, the Jeffrey pine is expected to work out well on southern slopes where it has been difficult to establish Doug las fir or some other normally well- adapted species. Slower growing habits of the Jef frey pine may fit them to Christmas tree uses while the trees are small, but the tree is normally used for lum ber, being sold as ponderosa pine and having the same uses. Farmers Tax Guides, a publication of the Internal Revenue Service in tended for use by farmers in filing federal income and social security taxes, should be available within a few days, Manning Becker, Oregon State University Farm Management Specialist, tells us. Farmers wishing to receive copies of this booklet might do well to ad vise us of their desires now, since only a million copies of publication are printed annually-far less than enough to supply all farmers. A card or telephone call will assure your copy. Success doesn’t come by laying awake nights, but by keeping awake in the daytime. Please advise us of your new ad dress if you are planning to move.
