Atlanta, March.-(Special Rapid
growth of the pecan industry in Geor-
gia has made more important than
ever the dissemination of knowledge
regarding the proper control OF the
diseases and insect pests which attack
the tree and its fruit.
There are only two diseases Of any
moment which attack Georgia pecan
trees. These are pecan scab and pc
can rosette, and of the two the former
is the most widespread and destrCc-
| tive in this state. Pecan rosette is
fungus disease which attacks the
twig3 Of the tree, causing them to die
and drop eff in the fall. There is no
! known remedy that is effective against
it.
But it is pecan scab which Georgia
growers on account CT its widespread
prevalence in certain areas, have most
to fear Pecan scab, the most serious
disease affecting the pecan, is caused
Inv a fungus which enters the tissues
cf the leaves and nuts and seriously
affects their development. The small
black pustules of the scab on leaves
and nuts may sometimes be so numer-
Gus as practically to cover the entire
surface It's effect is to dwarf the nut
and prevent it from maturing, scme-
times causing it to drop from the tree
in an immature state.
Resistant Varieties
n is a peculiar fact that there are
not only varieties which are resistant
IN ecab. but that different varieties
resist it in greater or less degree IN
d.ffeTent sections. Very wet seasons
also promote the growth OF the 1'h-
gus, while in dry seasons its erect
NAV be hardly noticeable.
while various fungicides have been
used to control pecan scab, the pest
results have been obtained so far by

About !=orty Insects
While there are only two diseases
there are approximately forty insects
which attack the pecan. only q ie"
CT these, however. are so hulhe'"H| II
ana so widely prevalent in Georgia a
to cause extensive damage.
One Of the worst of these insects Is
the pecan case-bearer serious enem!

and twigs and reduces the nut ylelC

by destroying the buds. The adult
of this insects is notified gray motn
which, with wings spread, IS ABOUT an
inch across. During the summer the
larvae feed upon the leaves and IN
the fall upon the tWigs. The accepted
method Of controlling the case-bearer
is a spray of arsenate OF lead applied
some time during August or the first
week in September. In this manner
a large percentage Of these insects IS
killed.
There are varieties which are more
or less resistant to the caSe-bearer,
and it may be possible through the
planting Of these and proper use or
the spray to keep them practically
eliminated from the orchard.
There are other kinds Of case-bear-
ers which attack the pecan, but far
less frequently. One OF these is the
pecan cigar case-bearer, and another
the pecan nut case-bearer, new conner
to Georgia. Study of the control
of this latter insect is now being made
by the State Board Of Entomology.
Eorers Do Much Damage
Pecan trees are frequently attacked
by boring insects just as are peach
and other fruit trees. This insect is
largely local, although it has done eX-
tensive damage in those areas where
it has been prevalent The fiat headed
bOrers are the most abundant and most
destructive of this type of insect. They
are fat, hard shiny beetles about half
an inch long. They bore into the bark
and feed between the bark and wood.
The most satisfactory method Of COM
| batting these insects is to dig them out
with a knife, after which the tree

decay

beetles known as pecan twig girdlers.
These insects prune off small limbs
and twigs and in many sections work

method of control for this pest is to
gather and burn the infested limbs in
| the fall
Pecan CaterpliaTs

worm Of caterpillar variety with dark

The only known way to control the
pecan O. hickory nut Weeyil which
bores holes in the nuts, is to box up
the infected nuts so that the larvae
cannot get into the ground.
The State Board of Entomology is
vigorously pushing its experimental
work for the control Of the various
insects and diseases which attack the
pecan, and all the information which
it has gathered is at the disposal Of
any one interested, if he will write
for it.
