Navy Man Writes
Of Experiences
Aboard Warship

In a recent letter to his
mother, Mrs. Viola DeVore of
Hardin, Gordon DeVore, fire
man apprentice with the U. S.
Navy in Korean waters, tells
of Navy life aboard a U. S.
warship.
The letter, dated June ID,
reads in part as follows:
we just pulled into Wonsan
a few hours ago. Right now we
are between islands. They be-
long to us and have u. S.. Ma
rines on them.
1--WE were at Songjin ,yester-
day, but came down here to es-
cort a cruiser to .ySongjin. We
protect them from subs.
/. The islands are pretty, I
think. They are green and billy
and look nice and peaceful, but
we know they aren't. We have
been Smelling the mainland
with our 5 inch guns. We can
reach out with them, but their
guns can't reach us. Boy do
they ever make a noise when
they go OFF.
I'VE had some South Korean
soldiers aboard here yesterday,
but got rid of them today. They
were some sort of guerillaS and
we unloaded them behind the
enemy lines to get information.
Eve have army fire control
parties, who direct us where
and how much to fire. BY use
of our radar we can hit a pin
point miles away. So you can
see we are really giving those
Cooks a bad time.
"We refueled Saturday night
and mail went off, but we new
er got any. Has been a week
since we last got mail.
"ChriS (DeVore'S buddy who
has visited in Harding and I
are still together. We bunk in
the same compartment now.
We are still down in the for
ward fire room and I like it
down there now. I'm used to
the heat and I like all the kids
we stand watch with.
1--WE have the 10 to 4 watch
now. When we get off watch
at 4 in the morning we go out
on deck and look at the moon.
Sure is beautiful out here on
the ocean. Last night it was a
red purple and boy was it
pretty as it reflected off the
ocean. --
"Any more, if I get over six
hours of sleep a day, 7 really
think I'm a sleepy head. If I
get more one day, the next
night 7, just lay in my bunk
and can't sleep, SO, six hours is
plenty. ~>f,3
1--WE are still supposed to be
on our way. back to. the States
the middle of July and are sup
posed to get there around the
first of August or the last of
JULY.

Value Spraying
For WeeviI
Is Demonstrated

The value of early spring
SPRAYING for the control of al
falfa Weevil is being demOnstra-
ted now in south central and
eastern Montana where this in
sect is doing serious damage to
alfalfa crops that were not
sprayed early in the spring, ac-
cording to J.P. CorkinS, asSis-
.tant state entomologiSt at Mon
.tana State college.
Unfortunately, Corkins said,
little can be done now to con-
troll the WeevilS.
If the hay has not yet been
cut, the damage is already done
and spraying would have little
effect. In addition, spray ap-
piled now would leave some
toxic residue although not
enough to be dangerous to live.
stock. Secondly, some Weevl
worms are sure to hatch after
the spray is no longer effective.
Treatment of alfalfa stubble
where the first crop has already
been removed is Of very doubt
full vaue, Corkins said, because
the worms have moved down to
the crown area of the plants
where they are usually protec-
ted from spray material by
trash and dirt. However, If
growers wish to treat stubble
It is suggested that they use SO
gallons of water per acre at
100 to 200 pounds pressure using
one of the following spray ma
terials:. 1 to 1k pounds of DOT
per acre, or ~ to Q pounds OF
toxaphene per acre, or l pound
of chlordane per acre. To be eff
fective the inSecticide must con-
tact the WeevilS.
In Weevil infested fields
where the first crop has been
cut, ,Corkins said it looks now
as though the second cutting
will be from two to four weeks
late since it will be about that
long before the Weevil worms
spin their coccoons and come
to the end of their feeding Pc
