Japanese Beetle In
spection Tour
Farmers Observe Destruction
Done By Pests And Com
troll Methods

Barrels of captured Japanese beet
les and the destruction being
wought by the pests in Cecil county
we're observed on Friday by a large
number of farmers and civic leaders
on the University of Maryland
beetle-control conducted in the Elk
ton-Fair Hill section.
Pest-control experts said 1t was
doubtful il farmers would ever be
completely rid of the voracious in
vaders, but stated that intensive con-
troll measures would keep the beet
les down to permit profitable crops.
The farmers on the tour counted
more than 800 busy beetles on one
cabbage plant, saw fifty on one ear
OF corn, and watched beetle trappers
cart out wheelbarrow loads OF the
pests.
Dr.. Ernest Cory, State entomology
list. and DR.. George Langford, chief
OF beetle-control work in the State,
were in charge OF the tour which
covered a large part of Cecil coun-
ty, worst-hit area in the State.
The beetles tourists visited the
Fred Racine farm, where foliage
was virtually eaten off potato plants,
early apples were badly damaged
ana trees were denuded.
On the j. F. Wood place 700
quarts OF beetles were reported
captured in 100 traps.
DIR. Cory pointed out that damage
was much heavier on farms where
beetle trapping was not practlced
last year. 1t was also noticed that
where corn planting was not adjust
ed for the grain to silk after August
lO, the beetles had eaten the early
silk away, making it impossible for
the corn to polllnate and fill the
ears. Corn which silks after August
10, will be safe, as the beetle
menace is then past the peak.
DR.. Langford said grub and larvae
counts last fall showed forty per
cent. decrease in grubs in trapped
areas, while untrapped areas report
ed a slight increase. Trapping this
year on areas untrapped in 1888
produces twice as many beetles as on
land trapped last year.
Drs Laagford spoke at luncheon
meeting following the tour, and pre-
dicted trapping, introduction of
parasites to prey on the beetles and
planting adjustment would curb the
beetle menace.
Henry McIntire, Cecil county
farmer, told the visitors he was GER
tain trapping measures were effec-
tive. Harvey SINNERS, Rising Sun,
said his traps were taking twenty
five to thirty quarts daily.
