Foresters have found that the beetles, unwelcome gourmets of fir timber, prefer the rich glucose as well as the tender new growth inside the) tree bark. Working cooperatively with the agricultural chemistry department at Oregon State College, the researchers peel bark of! trees attacked by the beetles and collect the insects for the experiment.

Miles Compton, director of the state forestry department's research on insects, said this project is another attempt to control the bark beetles. He reported this is the first time that feeding of, the bark beetles with isotopes has ever been attempted. Previous experiments have included feeding of phosphorus and washing the insects in a radioactive substance. However, after a few meals of isotopes, even the wing tips of the beetles have become radioactive. To Trace Progress The radioactive beetles will be released in the center of established 400-foot check plots and their progress traced by geiger counters.

The plot will contain all types of felled and burned trees, logs and other material savory to the insects. Compton warned that many beetles would succumb to natural enemies such as birds, but enough would remain to carry on the experiment. He also advised that a meal of isotopes might upset the metabolism of the beetles and reduce the effectiveness of the experiment.
