STUDIES THE MOSQUITO.
Mrs. Edith Kicker Holds a Unique
Government Position.

Mrs. Edith Kicker Of Burlington. Ia,
has for three years enjoyed the dis
tinctlon OF being the only woman en-
ployed by the United States govern
ment as a field assistant in ento-
mology. Mrs. Ricker's work is to col
lect, study and make scientific reports
to DR.. l.. A. Howard OF the habits
Of the mosquito in Montana. In COM
pany with her husband. Prof. Maurice
Kicker, and little daughter, Mrs. Rick.
er has been located two seasons on
the banks OF Swan river in Montana
at its outlet into Flathead lake. The
biological station of the University OF
Montana is also situated on Flathead
lake.
Flathead lake and the vicinity was
selected by the government as an
ideal location for the study Of the
mosquito Within walking distance OF
the Kicker camp Is the Swan noun
tain range. while the Mission range
comes abruptly to the waters edge
and slopes from Swan river on the
north TO the high peaks, 10000 feet
at The southern end The scenery is
wild and rugged, suggestive Of Alpine
views.
Mrs. Kicker begins collecting about
the middle of June. Going into
swamps and ravines to catch the trou-
Dlesome insect necessitates a regula-
tion costume for protection against
their painful bites. The costume con
sists of leather legglngs, bloomers OF
heavy cloth. a blouse. head net OF
fine netting and gauntlet gloves.
The camping party lives in the open
air. sleeping out of doors, and enjoys
outdoor life. 1t is a queer but true
fact that. with the exception OF few
hours last summer, the campers en-
joyed absolute freedom from the an.
noyance OF mosquitoes. When they
did arrive, howevet. for that few
hours visit one evening. they came
suddenly: myriads OF them besieged
the party and kept them busy fighting
for protection for four hours. Then
they disappeared as suddenly as they
had come. This visit was attributed
to severe windstorm from the land
four miles away blowing them in that
direction.
Mrs. Kicker says single uncovered
rain barrel will breed mosquitoes to
torment the entire neighborhood Five
hundred and thirty-fve different speci-
mems have been developed in few
days at the station from six dlppersful
Of ralrwater, but a tablespoonful OF
kerosene In the barrel soon stined
