IRE There WeeyilS in Your beanSeed?
Directions For Controlling These Pests.

Orono, Me-, Jan. 24.-The following
was issued on Tuesday by Director
Charles d. Woods of the Maine agricul-
tural experiment station at the Uni
versity Of Maine:
So frequent are the inquiries which
come to the Maine Agricultural Elk
pertinent Station concerning the pea
and bean weevils that this account is
given as a response.
The single round hole frequently
found in seed peas is due to the pea
weevil (Bruchus pisorum), a blackish
beetle about one-fifth Of an inch long.
covered with brown pubescence and
marked with black and white variga-
tons. The young insect is whitish
grub which when very small is often
an unsupported inhabitant of green
peas. In seed peas, however, the in
sect has grown large enough to be de-
tected as an unwelcome partaker OF
the crop.
Holding over seed.-A simple and
effective remedy. and one that has been
in operation for fifty years or more,
consists merely i'll keeping seed peas
in close receptacle. such. as tight
bag ~or box, over one season before
planting.
/ F'Nmiga ton with bisulphde of
carbon.-When it is desired to plant
the first season after gathering the
seed. bags in which peas have been
kept tightly closed should be placed
in a tight box or vessel and disipfected
with bisulphide of carbon, at the rate
of an ounce or two to 100 pounds of
seed. This method will kill the
weevils without destroying the GERM
native power of the seed. and its ef-
; fectiveness is in proportion to the
tishtness of the receptacle. Benzine
and naphtha or gasoline will serve the
same purpose. In the use of all these
remedies care should be observed. on
account of their inflammabliity, not to
treat material in the immediate vicin-
ity of fire. such as lighted lamp or
cigar. =
Heat.-Heat is of value in destroy
ing insects in stored material, and it
has been found by experiment that a

temperature of 145 degrees F. will kill
the weevils in the seed without injury
to the germinative property OF the
seed A similar remedy consists in
soaking infested seed for one minute
in boiling water. A longer time Is apt
to injure 1t for planting.
The common bean weevil (Bruchus
obtectus) is a smaller but more dam
gerous insect than the pea weevil for
it not only develops in the growing
peas in the pod but continues to breed
in the stored seed until 1t is worthless
either for planting or food. This in
sect is about an eighth Of an inch long
and OF notified olive brown color.
Over 20 of these pests have been found
within single bean and several gen.
erations develop during the year.
From the fact that the species con-
tinues to breed for upward of a year
in dried seed, 1t is obvious that neither
the expedient of holding over seed for a
year before planting nor that of plant
ing late for seed stock would be pro-
ductive of good. as in the case of the
pea. weevil Recourse must therefore
be had to fumigation or to heat, and
the earlier the seed is treated after 1t
has, been gathered the better the re-
suit.
Just before it is planted seed infested
with this bean weevil should be lightly
thrown into water. Badly injured seed
will float, and may then be picked out
or poured off and destroyed. Sound
seed only should be reserved for plant
ing. -.
The chronological records of the
Maine Agricultural Experiment Sta
ton show that the bean weevil has
been troublesome in Maine for more
than 20 years and that it is widely dis
tributed in this State. In view of the
fact that so many beans are raise:
and eaten here it wooul seem to he
well worth while to take the proper
precautions against this insect in order,
that it may be kept under control.
There is no practical way of combat
ing either the pea weevil or the bean
weevil in the field but it is not diff :
cult to kill the pest in storaga
