To Control alfalfa WeeUi
Kill the AduIt---Early
By u P. CoRKINS assistant Stare Entomologs

MANY SOUTH CENTRAL Mon
tana alfalfa fields contained little
more than naked stems by first
cutting time last year. In these same
fields the new growths of the sec
ond cutting was held back one to
two weeks, and in some cases even
more. This extremely serious dam
age to one of our most important
crops does not have to happen, but
in all probability it will happen
many times again this year.
Until two years ago, there was
little we could do to prevent serious
losses from the alfalfa weevil. The
older control measures of treating
the first cutting when the weevil
larvae (worms) appeared, or of cut
ting early and treating the larvae
m the stubble did not, in most cases,
prevent serious losses.
A method of alfalfa weevil control
whereby these losses are prevented
has been developed by Ellsworth
Hastings of the Montana agricul-
tural experiment station.
Inasmuch as we were not prevent
ing extensive damage with our lar
val treatment work, it was obvious
ly necessary to look elsewhere in the
life cycle of the alfalfa weevil for
. place that this pest would be more
vulnerable to attack. Mr.. Hastings
did this and found that by killing
the adults or beetles (see picture) in
the early spring, practically all dam
age could be prevented.
The treatment must be made
between the time that the al
falfa first starts TO grow in the

necessary so that the weevils
will be killed before they start 10
lay eggs. II is important that the
treatment be made on good.
warm sunny day so that the
adult weevils or beetles are ac-
tive in the field.
1t was hoped that dieldrin, a new
insecticide, would be available for
the alfalfa weevil control program
this year. Unfortunately, we have
recently learned that dieldrin win
not be available in adequate guam
titles early enough this year to be
of much value to us in Montana.
The alternative, then, is to use chlor-
dane in our alfalfa weevil control
program.

The War

Despite the announcement Of
a possible stalemate by u. N.
General Macarthur, the forces
under his command opened a new
drive across the Han river to-
wards the S8th parallel. The
drive is aimed at sweeping all
enemy forces from the area south
of the S8th.
The U. N. offensive which now
is underway all along the front
line from the South Of Seoul to
the Korean east coast is the
largest since the Allies attempt
ed to break through the Com
munists north of the Chongchon
River last November. The attack
began at its key sector on the
Han river, Is miles east Of Seoul,
when elements Of the Ameri-
can 25th Division made an as
sault crossing of the Han River.
An elaborately planned operation
was carried out with so much
success that enemy forces esti-
mated at two regiments were
routed and the crossing accom-
plished with only a handful OF
UN casualties.

WEALTH


Parents would do well to give
their children first a good ex-

They should never be too anx-

Children sometimes weary of
waiting for their parents to die
in order that they may inherit.
Instead of getting busy trying
to make their own way in the
