Memorandum on the Mexican Bean

In most cases throughout the state
this year early market and garden
beans matured before the first brood
of Mexican bean BEETLE larvae reached
sufficient size to do commercial dam
age, but later paintings have been
eriously injured where control meas
ures were not applied.
Field tests and observations by this
department in the various sections of
the state this year have shown that
both dusts and sprays have given con-
troll. For busting the 20-20-60 cop
per arsenate lime dust or the mag
nesium lime dust 1-to-4 are both safe
and effective. The former dust has
he advantage Of controlling bean dis
eases and is particularly recommended
on lima beans where mildew and leaf
spot are factors in production. The
number of other uses for which the
copper arsenate lime dust may be
used on the farm i. e., on potatoes, to-
matoes, cantaloupes, cucumbers, mel
MS, ETC., make it a most desirable
dust. For spraying magnesium ar
senate 1 pound to so gallons of water,
or calcium arsenate pound to 40

most satisfactory where good ma
hinery was used.
Every effort must be made by can
ners, truckers, market gardeners and
home gardeners within the next few
days to protect later beans from the
ravages of the second brood of beetles
which are appearing now.

Many states now have in force rigid
restrictions on the interstate move
ment of plants, requiring all ship
ments to bear a certificate of inspec-
ton.
In a short time the State Entom-
ology Department will be making such
inspections that are necessary for
growers to market their plants. The
inspection is made free of charge,
therefore it is important that grow
ers make application at once if they
expect to sell any plants of any kind.
Anyone desiring this service should
apply to the County Agents office as
soon as possible.
From recent reports received from
various sources indications are that
