The 17-year locust is back asai


The 17-year locust is back again.
A boxfuI OF specimens was sent
TO the museum of the Daven-
port Academy Of Sciences by Wal
ter kruse, whose son, Jack, had
collected them at Camp Mcclellan.
This gives the academy four gen
erations OF these insects. Collec-
tons were made in 1905 by tn.
curator, j. H Paarmann; in 1883
by Miss s. G. F. Sheldon and in
1871 by j. Duncan Putnam.
The correct name of this insect
is periodical cicada, the name of
locust properly applying only TO
grasshoppers, says Mr. Paarmann,
the curator, in a bulletin issued to
day. The cicada does not devour
crops as does the grasshopper The
adult cicada comes out of the
ground late in May or early June.
In five days the male begins to
ill the air with his shrill buzzing.
In Is days more the female depos-
Its eggs in the twigs of trees,
shrubs and herbaceous plants.
These hatch in about six or eight
weeks and the young larvae emerge
and fall to the ground. 1t is
thought that they live on the
liquids of roots
For IL long years they live be-
meath the soil, attaining their full
growth in about Is years. At the
end of IT years the full-grown
iarva, now called a pupa, emerges
from the ground, usually in the
evening or at night, climbs up the
nearest upright object, changes its
skin, rests until the next day. and
is ready for flight During the 80
days spent as a winged creature it
feeds but little, if at all, the males
devoting their whole time to max
ing a noise, while the voiceless fe-
males busy themselves depositing
eggs.
Iniure Young Trees.
The adult females are capable OF
causing serious injury to young
fruit trees by the numerous pune
lures in the twigs. limbs and main
stems made by them in the act of
placing their eggs. The egg pune
ture makes an ugly wound, beyond
which the twig dies. On young
trees this results in destroying the
growth of a year or two, and mis-
shaping the tree.
No means of destroying the
adults is known, but many eggs
may be destroyed by pruning off
the affected twigs in July and burn
ing these before the eggs have
hatched. -

though the scenes are laid near Monte

was attempted of duplicating that

No such colossal enterprise as re-
producing the entire city of Monte

known in the moving picture industry.
