Want Strange Insect
Pests TO Be Reported

Washington. d. c., July ao-The
desira ability Of referring Immediately
to Federal or state entomologists the
occurrence of any strange insect which
seriously attacks crops, Is emphasized
In the opinion Of entomologists of the
United States Department of Agricu1-
ture, by the almost complete loss or
the rice crop from 10000 acres in Ma
tagorda county, Texas, through the
combined ravages Of a hitherto I'M
known rice .weevil and a wire worm.
The occurrence of the pests in this re-
gfon was brought to the attention of
entomologists only recently, but it is
believed that Expectations have been
going on for about three years, spread
ing from a small center. If the
problem had been attacked when the
pests first appeared, the losses of the
present season probably would have
been greatly reduced. entomologists
say.
The Bureau of Entomology urges
all persons who observe damage to
crops by insects to communicate with
1t. sending samples Of the pests if
possible.
