Japanese beetle found in North Dakota
BISMARCK - A serious phmt
pest widely found in the eastern
U.S. has been detected in North
Dakota for the second time in 11
years.
"A North Dakota Department of
Agriculture plant protection spe-
cialist positively identified a
Japanese beetle submitted to the
NDSU-Extension's Plant: Pest
Diagnostic Lab from Grand Forks,"
said Agriculture Commissioner
Doug Goehring. "The specialist
subsequently found more speci-
mens in traps in West Fargo,"
Native to Japan and first discov-
ered in the U.S. in 1916, the
Japanese beetle is now found in
nearly every state east of the
Mississippi River, as well as
Minnesota, South Dakota and
Montana.
"This beetle is mainly a pest of
trees, ornamental phmts and turf
grass, but is also hannt'ul to soy-
beans and corn," Goehring said.
The half inch-long, adult beetles
are metallic green with bronze wing
covers. Females lay up to 60 eggs
during their two-month lifespan.
The eggs hatch in two weeks and
the larva overwinter below the
frostline, feeding on plant roots in
the soil. Aduhs begin to emerge in
mid-June through September.
The insects defoliate a broad
range ot' plants, including corn,
soybeans, ornamentals, trees, and
shrubs, especMly roses and lin-
dens.
,lapanese beetle trapping has
been ongoing in North Dakota since
196(/. The first beetle detected in
the state was found in Burleigh
County in 2001. Goehring said the
trapping will continue through
September and continue next sea-
son to monitor whether any beetles
have overwintered in the state.
Currently, the North Dakota
Department of Agriculture moni-
tors about 8(i) traps, most of them in
phmt nurseries.
Goehring urged homeowners to
contact their county extension
agent if they suspect Japanese bee-
tles.

"Decorated" motorcycle mamas at Sturgis
Hell(),
Do you remeinber the classic
music? Remember the Ray Stevens
song about the streaker? In the
song, Ray always warned Ethel,
with an emphatic, "Don't h)ok
Ethel!" But it was too late; she'd
already bad a fi'ee shot, or some-
thing along that order.
Streaking was a short-lived fad
ten or fifteen years ago. A naked
person would run across the foot-
ball, soccer, or baseball field.
Maybe across a packed gym at the
high school ball game. Maybe
across the polo field when the
Queen was in attendance. ! hate to
even walk past the mirror alter I
shower. So I guess I would never be
a good streaker.
I remember hearing the story of a
young man who stripped down, put
a sack over his head, and ran across
the gym at a high school game at
Mobridge. The crowd was amused
when. one senior girl exclaimed.
"That's LeRoy!" Then she turned
bright red.
What brought this to mind is
something that happened this last
week to our outfit.

"It is an honor and a privilege to

time for DSU, and it was abundant-

some special veterinary treatment.

along with four-year old R J, headed
for Sturgis.
It just happened this is in the
middle of Rally Week. Tens of thou-
sands of people on motorcycles jam
the highways and the hills. Not all
of them of sound mind and body. In
fact, I think most are not of sound
mind and body. At least for ten days
or so.
As Will and RJ near Bear Butte,
the traffic is getting pretty heavy
with bikes and bikers. They are
meeting riders. Riders are passing
them. And RJ has his window down
and excitedly pointing out all the
motorcycles. You know. "Look
Dad!" He is in his child seat in the
back seat, passenger side.
As they stop at the first stop light
in Sturgis. pulling a horse trailer,
and surround by bikers, one pulls up
along side them. Right by RJ's win-
dow.
Will looks over to see a biker
with his motorcycle mama on the
back. Topless! The passenger is top-
less, but decorated with body paint
stars on her...Well, she's really dec-
orated.
Will is ,just sick at what RJ is
going to ask him. RJ excitedly
points out the couple to his Dad,
and exclaims, "l,ook Dad! Girls
have to ride on the back!" As Dad
breathes a sigh of relief!
When do we lose such inno-
cence? He is his Grandpa's boy!
