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

There are presently many small
areas of the county which are non

duction, although most of them once
supported fine stands of timber. Na
ture will eventually restore the for

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.
