Jumping Seeds
Are Just Bugs
The mysterious and infnitesimal

The mysterious and infinitesin1al
urge that has kept a bottleful OF
mustard seeds" on the jump since
early last week has been solved by
Frank Wallace, State entomologist.
The mustard seeds, persistent in
their jumping propensities, have lit
orally jumped their way from OBJ
security to identity.
Wallace has scanned thousands
Of pages Of biology since the mus
tard seeds were received at his Of
fee from g, Hope, Ind, citizen, who
asked their name To the scientist
they are known as cynips quercus-
salatrix, which means little to the
man who scratches when bitten by
an insect and doesn't give q hang
about his tormentor's name.
The "nips,'' short for cynips, is a
member Of the jumping gall family
and alternates his abode between
the oak leaf and the root Of the
tree. When he gets down to earth,
encased in 4 panoply of toughened
skin, he looks like a mustard seed.
The restlessness of the enclosed
larva causes him to jump, some
times a quarter Of an inch high.
Next year he will inbed himself
in the tissues of an oak leaf, where
he will look somewhat like a tiny
blister.

BY DOROTHY STANHOPE

BY DOROTHY STANHOPE
Times special correspondent at Camp Knox,
who will tell the home folk of activities
of Indianapolis and Indiana men who are
to take the citizens military training
camp this summer.1
CAMP KNOX, KY, June 27.-Be-
fore September between $4,000 and
20, 900 men will have come and gone
from Camp Knox.
High school boys, college students,
reserve officers, National Guardsmen
of many ages and from many walks
Of life. Missouri, Iowa, Wisconsin,
Illinois, Ohio, West Virginia, Ken
lucky and Indiana all will send goodly
numbers. There undoubtedly is in the
minds of many more than passing
interest as to just what manner Of
place this is.
It Is a tract of $4,000 acres, lying
thirty miles south Of Louisville on
the Illinois Central Railroad. That is,
the occupied area is that far distant;
the reservation itself begins much
nearer the city.
Population Scattered
It was chosen for the long range
possible for artillery fire, as the
population through the hills was very
scattered. However, the range OBJ
tainable is not as great as that at
Camp Bragg, North Carolina, so when
the Government, in its retrenchment
campaign last year, was considering
which camp should be kept, the larger
one was decided upon.
In consequence Camp Knox was
abandoned last fall as a permanent
station for troops and only small
caretaking guard was left during the
winter. The guard did not prove
adequate for protection Of the &C.
cupied area and vandals looted many
Of the quarters.
The land is not particularly
valuable. It is a collection Of joint
farms which the Government bought,
in many cases from owners most
unwilling to part with their posses
sions.
Fruit Trees Killed
Excellent apples were raised, I am
told, and there are thousands of trees
in the deserted orchards. Crabapples,
rlums, pears, peaches and grapes
also were raised in considerable
quantities. Although some slight
effort has been made to care for the
trees in the immediate vicinity Of the
camp, many have died or are ceasing
to bear.
Some of the farm houses have been
used as targets in artillery firing and
shot to pieces. Others have fallen in
to decay through neglect.
The whole reservation is very beau
tiful, with deep ravines into which the
sun never penetrates, trickling
springs and miniatures waterfalls,
giant trees that date back to Ken
tucky's earliest days, and caves to
which stories Of daring bandits cling.
