SpittIebug'spray
Kills Many Fish

Columbus, Ohio-An unfortu-

what insecticides can do to wild
and fish life was brought to the
attention of the Division of Wild
life recently in the form of a
water pollution report.
The report was of fish killing
in Captina Creek in Belmont
County which was caused by the
accidental dropping of a jug of
spittle bug spray into the creek
by a farmer.
Investigators said that dead fish
were observed for two miles
downstream and that snakes,

AROUND
OHIO
By GEORGE 1. Zeis

Some of you readers may have
the opportunity of hearing the
terrific din made by the 17-year
cicada. Brood 10 of this insect is
now active in 25 Ohio counties.
There are % broods of cicada
which appear in different years
and over different regions.
The first large emergence of
cicada started in central and west
central Ohio May 20. BY the time
you read this column practically
all of them will have emerged
from their earthen lair to start
their destructive work. This adult
insect will be active until about
the middle of July.
Practically all cicada come out
of the ground at night Through
an unknown sense, they usually
head for trees, apples being their
favorite. It is at this time the skin
is shed and the wings develop.
The insect is then able to fly from
one tree to another or from one
area to another.
Mating and egg laying takes
place during June. Although Qthe
male cicada is the one which
creates the noise by means of the
bladder-like structure on the under
part of his body, it is the female
which causes the damage to trees.
The female lays her eggs in two
to three years old twigs or branch
es by means of a sharp, needle
like structure called an ovipositor.
The ovipositor usually goes into
the twig to considerable depth.
Punctures of this nature soon
weaken the structure of the twig
to such a degree that it often
breaks off. The adult cicada does
not eat during its adult life.
The young, upon Matching, drop
to the ground beneath the tree and
bury themselves in the soil. 1t
has been estimated that the insect
will bury itself more than 80 inch
es into the ground during the IT.
year semi-hibernation period.
During this long period under
ground, the nymph cicada is
though to receive what small food
it does eat from the root system
of the tree. However, the amount
of damage done at this time is re-
latively small and does not seem
to weaken the tree in any way.
The next emergence of this
particular brood of cicada will not
appear again in central and west
ern Ohio until 1870. This whole
performance will again be repeat
ed then and the cycle starts again,
Experimental control methods
are being used for the first time
this year. 1t consists of a chem
ical called TFPT mixed with water
and being applied by a high press
ure sprayer. The effectiveness of
this spray is not yet known.

farm BUREAU
MILK STUDY

COLUMBUS - The greatest
drop in milk prices since 1910 has
SO upset the market that the Ohio
Farm Bureau Federation is urg-
ing the State Legislature to make
an immediate study of the situa-
ton.
To-day dairymen are receiving
IL percent less for milk than a
year ago." President Everett F.
Rittenour, Piketon, stated today.
when you remember that % per-
cent of Ohio farmers income is
from dairying you see why the
Ohio Farm Bureau is so concern
ed about the problem"
In dairy policy statement just
adopted by the farm organizations
board of trustees the Farm Bur-
eau outlines 12-point program.
I'VE believe this is practical and
workable self-aid program for the
dairy industry" Rittenour said.
while we recognize that there
is place for a government dairy
program, we know Ohio farmers
want to do all they can to help
themselves"
The Ohio Farm Bureau believes
that there are four major areas
in the dairy pictures which need
study. There are Cd State mar
keting orders; (2) Substitutes and
limitations; CD Price formulas;
and t4D Cost of production.
The 12-point program calls for:
1, Development of an effective
hard-hitting dramatic ma
tional sales promotion pro-
gram.
2. Elimination and prevention
of fraud, deception, misre-
presentation and adultera-
ton through effective en-
forcement of regulations
governing the sale of imita-
ton dairy products.
3. A coordinated and directed
program of research design
ed TO fully explore the field
of nutrition and the possi-
bilities for improved health
as a result of wider use of
dairy products in the nation
al diet, and to develop new
productes and new uses for
existing dairy products.
4. National publicizing of ac-
cepted weight reducing diets
which include milk and
= dairy products.
5. A campaign for increased
consumption of milk and
dairy products by producers.
6. Production of the highest
quality milk and dairy pro7
ducts.
z. Increased efficiency in the
production, processing and
marketing Of milk and dairy
products.
8. The type of pricing formulas
i'm the Ohio milk markets
should be based on eastern
factors rather than on west
ern surplus product factors
factors as at present.
9. We urge the State Legisla-
ture to make study of the
present milk marketing sit
uation in Ohio.
10. The supply-demand amend
ments of the Cleveland and
Canton Federal Orders sche-
duled to 60 into effect on
July /, should be eliminated
II. Milk producers should be
members of their own local
producer associations and
the producer associations
should be more closely CO.
ordinated. :

Young Texans Riot
In New Mexico Town
By the Associated Press

RED RIVER, N. Mex, July A.
Peace officers clamped an iron
fist on this northern New Mexico
resort town today after a riot
involving $50 holiday visitors.
Deputy Harold Lichlick said
hundreds of young trouble
makers" mainly from Amarillo,
Tex. stormed through the town
last night fighting and brawling.
A Spanish-American woman,
"a, a girl, 16, and 10-year-old
boy were besieged by about go
Texans in a vacant house where
they had fled. The house was
stoned and torn apart. Mr.. Lich-
lick said. The girl was cut by
flying glass. The woman was
hit in the leg by a rock thrown
through the window by one of
the 60 men. The victims names
weren't Immediately available.
Four special deputies were
sworn in to aid Mr.. Lichlick and
the other regular volunteer
officer, Deputy L. F. Louis. State
police sent an officer from Santa
Fe to aid Officer I. E. Salazar,

Rokosi Custer Is Attributed
To Friendship With Stain

ordered by Russian Premier
Georgi Malenkov.
Rakosi. like Stain, has been
associated with all the ruthless
ness of communism. Now, the
regime appears to be moving to-
ward giving the little man"
more to eat, more clothes, more
enjoyment.
The Communist end is prob
ably the same as it was before
more production, but produc-
ton by kindness instead Of
brutality.
Diplomats said Nagy's an
nouncement of radical changes
in government policy "came at
the 23rd hour"
Restlessness and discomfort
were known to have been spread
ing in Hungary as a result of
the Berlin and Czechoslovak
riots. 1t was disorganized and
without unified leadership, but
the resistance expressed itself
in industrial sabotage, negli-
gence, absenteeism and the re-
fusal of farmers to attend their
fields.
AS the new cabinet and Polit-
buro became known here, diplo-
mats noted one striking fact;
both the anti-Semitics and many
of their opponents-the radical
Jewish bosses-have been re-.
moved from Office.
Moderates i'm Office.
Those who have emerged as
the new leaders appear to be
moderates, comprising both Jews
and non-Jews. Imre Macy is a
Protestant, but his deputy,
Ernoe Geroe is a Jew.
Some diplomats in Vienna
said Geroe has emerged stronger
by adding the job of interior
minister to his previous post as
deputy premier. Under his con-
troll will be the security police
(AVH. His position appears
similar to that held by Russia's
Lavrenti Beria.
AS Beria is reputed to be at
odds with Malenkov, so is Geroe
with Rakosi. A struggle for
power between the two men has
long been rumored and through
Rakosi remains party boss, he
appears to have handed most
of his doctatorial powers to Macy
and Geroe.
Another interesting develop
ment was the total removal from
any party or government position
of former Defense Minister Mi
haly FarkaS. The Sovietization OF
the army apparently finished
command has now been put in
the hands of an officer rather
than a politician.
