Cave May Yield Secrets
Scienyfts Have Sought
* I
The records of a possible “ther
mometer tomb,” which Indicates
roughly the changing temperatures
of /ages in skeleton symbols, are be
ing studied by Smithsonian institu
tion paleontologists.
It Is a cave in the Alleghany
mountains near Cumberland, Md.,
where the bones of nearly f»0 differ
ent kinds of animals, several new
to science, have been collecteti All
these ibreatures lived during the
Pleistocene geologic period, the so-
called Ice ages, which extended over'
approximately 2,()(X),000 years and-
were marked by alternate advances
and recessions of the great glaciers
over eastern North America nearly
as far south as Maryland.
The remarkable feature of the col
lection is jthe wide variety of crea
tures who found this common grave.
Some—notably a crocodile-llke crea-
ture, bats, a tapir and some pec
caries—represent families which
as a sort of community tomb over so
long a period Is unknowm. The bones
were not arrange^ any marked
Stratification, but were all mixed to
gether. They furnish additional evid
ence, however, of the changing tem-
I)eratures during the long ages when,
so far as Is known, there was no hu
man population In North America.
The cave is located In a cut made
by the Western .Maryland railroad
through a limestone ridge about four
miles northwest of (Timberland. It
was excavated by the late r>t>cl«r
'Gidley, arfd study of the bones, now
preserved at the National museum, is
being continued by Mr. Gazin, .\lto-
gether they afford one of the best
cross section pictures of life during
the Pleistocene yet found in North
America.
Pest That Bids Fair |

One of the chief pests of Porto ;
Rico is a large leaf-eatihg weevli
known locally as the Kaquita.”, It ,
normally I^ys its eggs between two I
leaves, thereafter sticking the leaves
together, to protect the eggs, with a
mucilage so tough that the little
weevils when ready to emerge, often
have difficulty escaping from their
nests.
Dr. George N. Wolcott of the Porto
Rico Insular experiment station r%^
cently announced, according to Sci
ence Service, that the beetle likes
laying Its eggs between two sheets
of paper, and w'lll do so when paper
Is avellable. even in / preference to
leaves. The Insect’s mucilage sticks
the sheets so fast together that the
young are totally unable to escape
and hence are automatically trapped
by their parents. This method of
control la being widely used.—Lit

The most significant result of the
