will treat 200 pounds, and in lightly infested
areas only 5 to 10 pounds per acre are need
ed. Up to 20 pounds per acre might be
needed in heavy infestations. The bait does
the job.
But, even so, entomologists are not sat
isfied. It's so much easier to treat grasshop-
pers, the Mormon cricket'S close relative. IF
the nnirsutest drop of aldrin in diesel oil just
touches grasshopper it makes good grass
hopper of him. He's dead in minutes. But the
cricket just laughs at contact sprays. The
poison affects him only if he eats it. Hence
the bait
What makes the cricket so tough? Ento-
mologistS know that it is a thin coat of a
kind of wax he wears. The grasshopper
doesn't have this coat
What is the nature of this coat that pro-
vides the cricket such effective protection?
That's what entomologistS want to find out.
Right now a research project is under way
at Montana State College under the direction
of DIR. James Pepper, professor of zoology
and entomology, to determine the chemical
structure of this remarkable wax. Once this
structure is known the hope is that solvent
can be found for the wax. With such sol
vent poison sprays could be made just as
lethal for crickets as they now are for
grasshoppers.
But more than that-if this wax is such
an effective protection for cricketS, why
couldn't it be just as effective for other
things-machin please turn to page ~

HIGH in the mountains of Custer National
IL Forest in Saltwater County a minor
infestation of Mormon cricketS was reported
this summer. Numbering only 8 to Is per
square yards, the insects caused only neg
ligible damage. No crops in the valley below
were in any immediate danger.
But when crops are harvested in the
area in 1856, farmers and ranchers can
thank the crop pest control division Of the
United States Department of Agriculture
for its work in stamping out the infestation
promptly this year. Under the direction of
War Twilde, supervisor for grasshopper and
cricket control in Montana, an airplane bait
spreading crew moved in and, in the early
morning hours of one day, treated the $500
acre area involved.
Twilde estimates that, uncontrolled, this
infestation could have increased to a cricket
population that by 1856 might affect 1O,-
000-acre area in Saltwater County instead
of the $500 acres affected this year.
This batting operation in Saltwater Coun-
ty was the last of several conducted in Mon
tana this summer. More than 10000 acres
were baited, including 5000 in Powell Coun-
ty, 1000 in Big Horn County and the $500
in Saltwater County. In Powell County one
rancher counted So crickets in one square
foot. Crop damage was almost 100 per cent
in limited area.
All of this control work was done with
poisoned bait. Rolled wheat is used. Two
ounces of aldrin in one gallon of diesel fuel
