 Lyman County Extension News Notes
In the fall of 2005, however, there were several weeks during the trapping season where the pale western cutworm moth catch exceeded the army cutworm moth catch, and the totals were nearly the same.
Since the pale western cutworm typically over winters as eggs, they typically begin feeding later than army cutworms, and are generally not a problem in alfalfa, unlike army cutworms that typically over winter as larvae, and begin feeding early, or even during warm winter days.
What wheat producers should be aware of is that there were a large number of both moth species in the vicinity in the fall of 2005, and the potential exists for economic populations of larva in the spring of 2006.

The main character in "The Moth Diaries" is a sixteen-year-old girl who records in her diary her experience at an exclusive girls' boarding school.
However, simply labeling The Moth Diaries as just another entry in the "outcast-coming-of-age genre" fails to do justice to the true subtlety and richness of what is amazingly merely Klein's first novel.
Readers of The Moth Diaries are granted the power to witness the narrator's life as recorded in her journal, but with the unfair advantage of a distant perspective.
