diately to eat the foliage, working
mainly on the undersides of the
leaves.
The larvae are usually through
feeding by early July, at which time
they enter the soil and form their
pupal cases. At this time an I'm
practicable and variable number of
the first generations larvae enter
the prepupal stage and stay in their
pupal cases until the following
spring.
Those which do not enter the
prepupal stage remain in the soil
from two to three weeks, during
which time pupation takes place.
The second generation moths then
emerge and begin laying eggs. Even
though large flights of second gen.
Grafton moths occur, past experience
has shown that the second genera
ton larvae never occur in sufficient
numbers to be of economic impor-
lance under Montana conditions.
Control
WHEN
An attempt should be made to ap-
ply control measures at a time when
a maximum number of eggs has
Matched and when a minimum of
damage to the foliage has occurred.
Usually, by the time damage to the
foliage is noticeable, sufficient hatch
has occurred to make it advisable to
spray.
WHERE
Spray should be applied in a
name to assure complete coverage
of the plant. In addition to spraying
the crop which is infested, a thor
ough check should be made ON sur
rounding waste lands to determine
the extent of their infestation. The
webworm larvae are known to
migrate, and they may move out of
waste land into crops and cause

To oppose the proposed National Guard scout unit for Alaska is to play into the hands of the Con- munists, former Major Carl Hein- miller of Port Chilkoot said this noon, speaking before the Junior Chamber of Commerce at the Bar anof
 Stoppage of plans to form a Guard unit for Alaskas shores is about the worse thing that could happen to the Territory, Heinmiller said He added that the National Guard question has become an is sue ridden with political emotion which allows little objective thinking on the subject.
 With the Federal Government of fering to match Territorial funds to l, and with only $l00000 asked to te appropriated by the Territory, Heinmiller said it would be prac- tically ridiculous not to take ad- vantage of the opportunity.

TREE FARM SURVEY
TOUR MADE

o. N. Patten of Missoula, Exten-
sion Service Forester, was in Lib
by the early part of the week. He,
with County Agent B. F. Robinson
has been inspecting Christmas tree
paintings where nursery stock is
being planted by private farms.
They estimate that about a dozen
have done this planting around
Libby. Quite a number are plan
ming spring paintings. Most are
planting a few trees each year to
assure a continuation of tree crops.
Paintings are mostly Douglas Fir
from the State University Nurser
at Missoula. Patten reports that
despite the unfavorable year for
this work, the paintings seen were
exceptionally good.
Mr.. Patten arrived here Sunday
and left Tuesday for Thompson
Falls, where he will conduct a tou
of the same type of tree farming.
