POISON EFFECTIVE AGAINST
FLORIDA LAND CRABS FOUND

After various experiments the Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture
believes that carbon bisulphide proper
ly applied once will destroy from 90 to
100 per cent of the land crabs which
have been discouraging pest to Flor
ida farmers from near Palm Beach to
Cape Sable along the Atlantic coast
and adjoining keys. A cost compari-
son between carbon bisulphide and
phosphorus paste is greatly in favor Of
the former for a single application.
The method has been recommended in
the past to growers who complained.
that it was too expensive. lnvestiga-
ton brocght out the facts that the poi
son was bought at retail instead of in
bulk, and that although one-half ounce
is sufficient to treat so crab holes, that
amount was being used in every hole.
1t is expected that an anti-crab cam
paign, proposed for December, when
tomato planting IS begun, will meet with
enthusiastic cooperation on the part
of landowners and farmers.
Land crabs infest low flat lands,
where the water level is from | to 4 #.
below the surface during the dry sea-
son. From 900 to 10000 crab holes
to the acre have been found in this re-
gion. Winter truck crops and toma-
toes have been severely damaged by
the crabs, which seem to be increasing
in number. They devour and iniure
all kind of young and tender vegeta-
ton, which they nip off and carry TO
their holes.
When is became known that the land
crab menace to crops and property val
ue was being Investigated, numerous
for assistance were received
by the department, as well as offers to
aid in the work. A representative Of
the Biological Survey recently made
an extensive study Of the land-crab
problem, particularly in Dade County.
Fla, with the view to introducing BET
ter and cheaper methods than those
now used for controlling and extermin-S
ating this destructive pest.
