Japanese Beetle Invasion Prompts Maryland Controls
Maryland officials warn the annual Japanese beetle invasion nears with predicted greater crop and tree damage in 1935. New natural enemies from the Far East will be released, plus poisons and expanded control programs. The pests damaged Maryland crops worth about 1 million dollars last year, chiefly corn in Montgomery County, and also clutter offices and hinder pedestrians. Also, James Chester Reeder has enlisted in the U S Navy for three years and reports to Great Lakes for recruit training. Baltimore reports coal output in 1937 surpassing 1946 and 1947 preliminary counts, with over 2 million tons mined in Maryland.
