Holloway, federal entomologist and Dr. Carl B. Huffaker, beneficial insect specialist in the University of California College of Agriculture, This ig our first large planting in 1947, Holloway revealed, and we expect to place at least 3000 more this spring. During 1946 over 25.000 beetles were released in Hum-] iboldt, Shasta, El Dorado, Nevada and Placer counties. The first liberation was made in February 1946. 4 “We've planted 11 colonies so.far, Three are not doing too well, but seven are coming along fine and one in Placer county is. excellent. We planted 2000 beetles there in 1946 and within a year we found insect eggs 300 yards from our first planting. That’s doing fairly: well.
