'Super-Insect' Perils
Crops, Warns Scientist

Efforts Of American agriculture
to control harmful insects, which
cost the industry millions annually,
may boomerang and lead to the
emergencies Of a super-race Of in
sect pests.
This is the belief Of DR.. Harry S.
Smith Of the University of California
citrus experiment station.
Paradoxically, the scientist de-
clared, it will be the most intelli-
gent grower, 1.-The one who is the
most painStaking and conscientious
in the control of his pests" that will
be confronted first with the problem
OF the new Super-pestS.
Insect Species" DR.. Smith ex-
planned, apparently have the abil-
ity to produce more resistant races
if conditions are favorable. Isolat-
ed individuals of these races may
appear at any time but will become
dominant only if some favorable al
iteration in environment occurs.
The regular application of in
secticldes," he pointed out, may
cause such an alteration and allow
new races more resistance to these
insecticides and replace those
races less able to survive.
Thus, continued, intense pest con-
troll operations may result in devel-
opment of insect races which be-
come harder and harder to kill"

Fathers Day
Fathers day origin is a subject
of dispute. According to one state
ment it was first celebrated in the
United States in June, 1910. Mrs.
John Bruce Dodd, Spokane, Wash,
began a movement in 1909 to honor
fathers; Mrs. Walter Hamlet Bur-
CESS of Virginia, now Cheltenham,
had a National Fathers Day, Inc,
registered in the U. S. Patent Office
in 1921. Other claimants to honor of
founding day include Mrs. Charlotte
L. Kirkbride and Mrs. Carrie Stern
berg, of Philadelphia, and Harry c.
Meek, of Chicago. Fathers day is
now celebrated the third Sunday in
June. Another authority says Fa-
theirs day was first celebrated in
Philadelphia on June IS, 1911, land
had its origin from the celebration
of Mothers day, inaugurated by
Miss Anna Jarvis Of that city"
Badge Of Fathers day is the rose.
