DAMAGE DONE BY PECAN
INSECTS AND DISEASES
Board of Entomology Tells of Results of Investigations
of Pecan Pests.
Atlanta, Ga. — (Special.)—The im
portant information that there are va
rieties of the Pecan tree which are
least subject to the attacks of cer
tain Insects, and that there are those
which are peculiarly resistant to de
structive Pecan scab, has been devel
oped by the Georgia Board of Ento
mology, and will shortly be incorpo
rated in a new' bulletin. In this bul
letin will appear much new and inter
esting information.
Of the forty or more insects that
attack the Pecan, several new ones
have made their appearance in Geor
gia since the last bulletin was. is
sued.. These are described ;aud, 'in*
sofar as Is possible, the methods of
control are given. There ate only two
bad diseases which attftc&i Pecans in
Georgia, the worst of which is Pecan
scab; the other 1? Pecan rosette.
Perhaps the most interesting and
important information conveyed in
this bulletin is the fact that certain
varieties are less liable to infestation
by the Pecan case-bearer, one of the
most )destructive of all Insects. The
varieties upon which the -fewest of
these insects were fouftd are Money
maker, Harsen, Georgia, Cur tip., Rus
sell, Maniuia, If reap (nor*), .Tjes&ip
and Young.’ The‘worst Infested 1 were,
the Capitol, Schley, Stu
art, t'Jelson,' Prof seller, TaVlot', Aliev,
Appojtnattox and Delrugs.

; Trees That Resist Scab.
Mcist suspectible to Pecan 'tfdab
found the Georgia, San Saba,
Capitol, Delruas and many seedlings.
Only slightly infested were the Van
Deman, Schley, Alley, Halkert and
Mobile. The varieties declared safest
to plant from standpoint of imfhuhity
from scab, are Moneymaker, Russell,
Stuart, Schley and Alley,,,the infec
tion noted in the two latleri beihg very
alight. , ,
Pecan scab, the most serious fun
gus disease attacking Pecans, is indi
cated by small black pustules on the
leaves and nuts. It is best controlled
by a thorough and careful spraying
with Bordeaux mixture in the propor
tion, 3 pounds copper sulphate, 3
pounds lime to fifty gallons of water.
The mixture should be carefully made
as described in tlie bulletin,
Pecan rosette causes the twigs to
die back fn the fall. Little is known
about it. Some growers remove the
affected twigs. Entomologist E. Lee
■\Vorsham is of the opinion that it Is
best, to remove and burn the tree.

the Pecan, perhaps the Pecan case
bearer is the most serious, particu
larly in the south Georgia Pecan belt.
It is a gray moth, as an adult, about
an inch across with wings spread.
The worm lives in a case and sticks
its head out to feed on the leaves
and twigs. The best, method of con
trol is to spray with arsenate of lead
fn August or the first week of Sep
tember. In this way it is readily
held in check.
The Pecan shucksworm, a common
insect, attacking t'he shuck, preventing
maturing of the nut staiqing it, is
controlled by gathering antf burning
the ishyeks. •
The Pecan cigar case-bearer, lfke
the regnlaf case-bearer hot smaller,; is
soiree in Georgia. The flontrol l is
arsdnato of lead spray ir) March when
the buds are swelling.
The Pecan nut case-bearer is new
in Georgia, having been first observed
in 1915. The insect develops within
the nut. Unless checked this insect
may soon do serious damage. Methods
of control are now being worked out.
The twig girdle,rs cut, off Pecan
branches. Infested limbs should be

orchard, checks‘many insects.

The flatheaded borers, flat, hard,
shiny .boetlds about half an inch long,
bore into the bark and feed between
t jie bark and wood. The best method
is 'to follow the crack's ih the bark,
dig them out aiit| kill them. Shot hole
and pin hold Writs are other types of
beetles which similarly a’tack thla
tree. They are controlled by burning
dead wood and, where very serious,
by whitewashing the trunk of the
t req.
The pecan nut ctirciflio, similar to
the plum insect, is a weevil which
bores into the nut, making the ordi
nary wormhole sometimes seen. The
method of control is not yet worked
out, but shallow plowing when the
insect is In Hie ground gets many of
them. The Pecan borer, like the
Peachtree borer, must be removed
with the knife.
The fall webworm and similar in
sects, should be burned with the kero
sene torch or scraped off and stepped
on. The Pecan looper, a large motli
that eats the leaves, is controlled bY
arsenate of lead • spray. The same
remedy is applied for the budworm,
two species of which attack and de
stroy the buds. Leaf hoppers, small,
green insects which suck the leaves
and cause them to curl, are controlled
by spray of whaleoil soap.
