an airplane was used to dust a catalpa
grove OF 6,Oo0 trees. which was being
destroyed by caterpillars. and the ex
pertinent was such a success that new

possibility may he developed.
The initial experiment was conducted
on the farm OF Harry =. Carver, near
Dayton. and Gn airplane from McCook
field was used for the purpose. Carver's
trees had been attacked twice before
by worms and was undergoing a third
attack, which il was feared would wipe
out the entire grove. He Informed the
State experts and asked for immediate
help.
An Ally pilot was detailed to take n
plane to the Carver farm, where a home
