This Is the time of year when
insects are causing their great
est damage to plants. Its not
surprising that the average far
mer and home gardener be-
comes confused when trying to
determine what insect is caus-
ing the damage to particular
plant. The numbers of insect
species which can attack most
plants is so large that its no
wonder people long for an all
purpose insecticide. Probably,
there never will be such an
insecticide or mixture of in
secttcides. Anything potent
enough to kill all kinds of in
sects would also kill most other
forms of life, including the
plant you want to protect as
well as yourself. In fact, we
are searching for just the op-
posite - ones that kill only
single species or a few re-
lated species. This presents
a problem to farmers and home
gardeners because they will
need to be able to identify the
damage done to their plants
in order to know what insec-
ucide to apply. One way to find
out what kind of insect is dam
aging your plants is to take it
to specialist or county agent.
There will be a good opportun-
ity to do this at the University
of Delaware's Farm Field Day
near Georgetown on August 7.
A "Sick Plant Clinic" will be
on hand during the Field Day,
and anyone who has a damaged
plant or an insect which they
want identified can count on help
from specialists In the fields of
Entomology, Plant Pathology,
Horticulture, and Agronomy.
The "Sick Plant Clinic" also
will feature several live exam
pies of insect damagedplants as
well as live andpreserved spec
linens of the insects them
selves.
AS repulsive as insects seem
to be, some people have found
certain species to be a tasty
dish. For instance, there is
the popular specially known as
s'Terniites a La Bantns' = -spop-'
'ular thatis among certain tribes
in South Africa. These tribes
men collect the flying termites
by the hundreds and dry them on
a flat rock which is coveredwith
a cooking oil. Then to each pint
of dried termites they add a
tablespoon of vegetable oil and
w teaspoon of salt. Following
this, the termites are toasted
over hot Goals. They taste like
popcorn = so they say.
Our American Indians ate the
Ponderosa pine caterpillar
after roasting them. Flies that
emerged from lakes In great
numbers we're collected and
eaten by some tribes.
Even today. you can buy cho-
colate covered ants, fried
Smyrna times., 1963-07-18

grasshoppers and caterpillars
as well as other "choice items"
In some delicatessen stores. If
any one eats some of these
canned insects would be inter-
ested In their reaction to the
taste, ect. My scientific curios-
ity stops short of eating insects.

One Of the cities Is Wash

Tin cans, old rags, scrap
paper are the standard craft
materials, used for making
planters, candlesticks, hand
puppets and other hobby
items. Parking lots suffice as
camp sites for the practice
Of outdoor skilis = lighting
campfires, etc. And volun-
teers are encouraged to save
money by making their own
teaching aids. geared specif-
ically to their charges.
