Caterpillars Fill West. Trains Delayed Across Corvallis
Corvallis Oregon June 9 The van guard of a caterpillar army reached Corvallis and covered sidewalks in parts of town. The insects delayed trains near here last Wednesday and again for about fifteen minutes yesterday as they crawled across tracks. Professor W J Chamberlain cites a periodic surge caused by a temporary advantage over a parasite that normally limits the species. Trains report continue to be impeded by caterpillars marching from the hills toward Albany in search of shelter to spin cocoons later becoming brown moths.
