midnblo enemy to British Columbia
timber resources has been found in a
' small brown beetle, an eighth of at;
inch in length, known by the scient f
icname of d°ntioctous, according to
forestry officials here. 'I he beetle, ac
cording to scientists, bores through
the bark of pine trees and burrows in
the sap wood. In two or throe years
the tree is dead.
So far as known, the only method
of controlling tire pest is through cut
ting down and burning infected trees.
