Dawn on favorable flying days
finds the Allegan airport, headquarters for the aerial treatment program, bustling with ac.
tivity. Planes are readied for
take-off, and ground crews t h a t
guide the pilots w i t h colored
balloons called kytoons' are at
their stations before dawn in
the areas to be sprayed.
Some 750,000 acres are to be
treated in the counties of Allegan, Barry, Berrien. Cass. Eaten, Ionia, Kent, Ottawa, St. Joseph, and Van Buren. In this
area parts cf Bainbridge and
Watervliet townships are under
this spray treatment program.
Four especially equipped Navy
bomber planes skim along the
flight strips spraying the pesticide m a l a t h o n at the rate of
four ounces per acre. An observer aircraft, in radio communication with ground crews, flies
overhead.
At the rate used in the program, which has the approval of
both state and federal pesticde
groups, malathion is not h a r m ,
ful to man, wildlife, birds or
fish. But it is 95 per cent effective in destroying over-wintering adult cereal leaf beetles
which emerge in early spring to
mate and feed on growing oats,
wheat, barley, rye. and some
kinds of grasses. The pest is
one of the most dangerous
threats to growing grain known.
The cereal leaf beetle program
is operated jointly by the Michigan epartment of Agriculture's
Plant Industry Division and the

Division.

of course his skill helped make

Thanks, Judy!

Mrs. Beverly (Duane) Rockwell. She put our prince costume

other projects going, she still
did a very professional job.
We had a fine pnnce, too —

We wish to mention the ladles
whom we couldn't do without—
My family of four girls; Mrs.

who was our "man Friday" and
her husband who helped In so

YOUR C H I L D R E N
The S t a t e Police have issued
their annual warning about
child
molesting
Incidenta —
which increase in s p r i n g and
s u m m e r when children a r e o u t doors more.
P a r e n t s should caution youngeters about possible d a n g e r f r o m
strangers.
Molesting dangers can best
be thw-arted by cooperation of
parents, children, school a u t h orltles, and police, accord ng t o
S t a t e Police Sgt. George L j b dell. The initial responsibility,
however, falls heaviest on p a r e n t s and children.
P a r e n t s should set g u delines
of outdoor acUvity for their
children, explain the importance
of such rules and see t h a t they
a r e followed.
P a r e n t s should report any molesting i n o d e n t to police because this can help check t h e
menace. N a m e s of y o u n g s t e r s involved In such Incidents are n o t
made public, except where w a r ranted in cases of abduction o r
murder.
