T est of a poison bait, developed
by M. J. Porseli, H orticultural In ­
spector, of W ashington, has proven
effective in the control of the straw ­
b erry root wevil, according to For-
sell and Mr. A rth u r F rank, P ath ­
ologist of the W estern W ashington
E xperim ent Station, Puyallup. As­
surance of the effectiveness of the
bait has been given by members of
the W ashington station and by the
S tate E ntom ologist a t Pullm an.
The Oregon A gricultural College
has not had an opportunity to test
out this bait, and cannot vouch for
its effectiveness, but th ey believe
the investigators who are fam iliar
w ith the control work done are com­
p eten t to judge the m erits of the
bait.
C ontrol is obtained by poisoning
the adult wevil before it
deposits
its eggs. The poison is placed in the
crown of each plant, about a tea-
spoonful to each plant. The bait
!
is said to a ttra c t the beetles upon
which they feed, thus killing them
before th ey lay th eir eggs. Thus,
the tim e of application is governed
by the life history of the insect.
As the rem edy is directed against
the beetle it is best to apply the
bait when the maximum num ber of
beetles are present and before much
egg laying takes place.

according to Forsell, the bait can be
best applied at the completion of
harvest. This tim e, it is believed,
would be a little late, u nder W est­
