Outline Blister Rust
Control in Park

WEST GLACIER-G Glacier Ma
tional Park this summer will have
two small blister rust control
camps.
Fifteen men will be employed in
the eradication of currant bushes
which become necessary host to
the spread of the spores that des-
troy five needle pines including
white pine, white bark pine and
timber pine.
| Comforting on the blister rust
control program were John Gym,
Missoula, of the u. S. Forest Ser
vice, and A. D. Cannavina, assist
ant chief ranger in charge of for
estry and Wildlife.
This summer park blister rust
control camps will be at Old Man
lake and headquarters.
A new portable power sprayer
for application of a currant bush
destroying hormone will be used.
The blister rust spore from the
pine tree to the currant bush can
travel up to several hundred mil
es. The next movement from the
bush to infect other pine trees sees
the spores able to travel only a
few hundred feet, nor can they
travel tree to tree. Control of the
blight is effected by eliminating
currant bushes, program that has
been underway in Glacier since
the 1905.
1t is part of a national control
| program and objective in the park
is to preserve stands for posterity.

would slow up the program.
Commencing the establish
ment Of a voluntary advisory
committee in the Health, Edu-

the President predicted this plan

that the committee, for example

setting up priorities and at the
same time keeps a careful eye
for any possible emergencies.

it might be a step in that direc-

Vienna next week on the Aus

there will be a meeting of the
