A.-? a result of a survey made in the southern part of the State this week by Frank N. Wallace, State entomologist, an alarming increase in the number of Mexican bean beetles, one of the most predatious insects ever to take its abode in northern States, is noted. Whereas, a year ago only a trace of the beetles was reported, today southern counties in v general are being ravaged by the insect and it has been seen in numbers as far north as Bloomington, Wallace said. “While the beetles are not uniformly bad in all of the down-state counties, in spots they have absolutely ruined the bean crop,’’ Wallace said. Principal diet of the beetle is the leaf of the bean plant. The only successful remedy thus far discovered, Wallace said, is a spraying solution of magnesium arsenate.
