C MONDAY, NOVEMBER SCIENTIST BELIEVES EGOTISM CAUSES CHIRP OF CRICKETS UND Dr. Allard’s Report Holds Sex Call Sec- Learn "Smeu“ Lan- guage of Bees and Ants Described. - B Why do insects make THOMAS R. HENRY. usic all their lives long? Fhe chirps of crickets are given a weird significance in an analysis of }insect harmony by Dr. H. A. Allard of the Department of Agriculture, just issued After long study of the musical 16,000,000 wing strokes. 1t is possible, he says, that an ele- mental egotism’and love of nojsy self- expression may be the motives, or a mood of soclal contact, or an elemental impulse of pure art. “Sex alone,” he insists, ““does not explain it. No cricket needs to chirp himself to death, 4,000,- 000 or 5,000,000 times on one bush, to win - the momentary attentions of a silent, lonely female in the vicinity. Here is the weird mystery of Insect music, its eternal persistence, an eter- nal wmr play in some restless role of life designed, it would seem, to keep the insect happy and content while it lives along to the very threshold of death.” Has Developed Dialects. ‘While the insect is entirely an in- strumentalist, Dr. Allard points out, it actually has developed dialects in dif- ferent localities, as do human being Thus there is an observable difference between the music of katydids of the same ‘species in New England and in the District of Columbia. The scientist is confident that they have a delicate sense of hearing. He once kept a bush katydid tive in hi bedroom which, he say ould rep! to_my lisping mimicry as.often as I ‘cared to stignulate it. In tests with this katydid I stepped away slowly the en- tire length of the room, lisping 50 low as barely to hear it myself, and yet it heard and promptly responded.” The hearing organs, he says, are on the fore- legs near the knees. eternal music of the insbcts Dr. Allard attributes to *some weird, In- comprehensible mood of consciousness and self-expression, some inherent, per- vasive mood that makes all things move and spin eternally in a round of rest- less play, whether it be electrons, pla- nets or what not in the physical uni- verse.” Some families of insects,-He points out, have quite complicated the musical instruments as parts of their bodies and different species are extremely special- ized in their musical technique. Some appear to have a keen sense of time, while the music of others seems to have no time regulation. Ambitious efforts to learn the “smell” language of bees, ants and termites are described by Dr. N. E. McIndoo of the Department of Agriculture, who advances the theory that the remark- able soclal organizations of these insects depend,. for their systems of communi- cation, upon the extremely, fine differ- entiation of odors. By intensive de- velopment of his own sense of smell, Dr. McIndoo says, he was able in a few months to distinguish queens, drones | and workers merely by smelling them nd also to distinguish the smell of the ive; of the larvae and pupae, of the honey, the pollen and the wax. Special Experiments Devised., ingg & human being with greatly generated sense of smell could make such @ne distinctions, he points out, nsects themselves must r differences. By means of ly devised experiments, Dr. Mc- {geports, it was established that the queen bee gives off a peculiar odor, that probably all her offspring inheri a “family odor” from her, and each workes. apparently gives off an odor which is different from that of any other worker. Of all' the bee odors, he says, the “hive odor’ probably is the most im- portant. This, he say: is composed chiefly of the individual odors from all the workers in a hive and is supple- mented by the odors from the queen, drones, combs, frames, walls of the hive and still other sources. The odor of & less colony is perhaps considerably nt from that of a colony which has a queen. The absence of & queen odor probably explains why the workers in a queenless colony are irritable and never work normally. All the bees of & -colony carry the hive odor of that colony on their bodies, among the hairs. ‘This serves as a sign by which all the occupants of a hive know one another. Whenever a queen enters the wrong hive she is made to realize that she wears the wrong badge. “Bees kept in the open air for three days lose all the hive odor, but each bee till emits its individual odo ‘When his OING —in the middle of the picture!

Poresare purified seems unable to prevent itself from following a trail sprinkled with a weak | solution of formic acid, thus affording one explanation of how they find their way back to their nests. ‘The odor of insects, he believes, comes from special glands scattered over the surface of the body which take the place of the sweat glands in mammals as smell producers. Some have such glands in their feet so that they leave a_trail of odor wherever they go bg which to retrace their steps or by whic] others can follow them. Antong mammals the dog has sweat glands in the pads of its feet which seem to deposit an odorous material wherever the dog_ steps. Ants and termites, he says, have been observed laying down scented trails by depositing tiny specks of material from the tips of their abdomens, and thereafter they follow these tracks. These insects also probably have special glands for the exudation of smells alluring to those of their own species and warning those of Foot Ball Player Dies. COLLINGSWOOD, N. J..
