JAPANESE BEETLE QUARANTINE REVISED 
Washington, April 14. The Federal quarantine on account 
of the Japanese beetle, heretofore effective in Pennsylvania 
and New Jersey, has been extended to include Delaware, the 
Federal Horticultural Board, United States Department of 
Agriculture, announced to-day in a revision of the quarantine, 
which goes into force immediately. 
This step was made necessary, it was said, by the spread of 
the beetle to the border of Delaware. The safety zone main¬ 
tained beyond the area known to be actually invaded, there¬ 
fore, had to be pushed across the line to take in the township 
of Brandywine, New Castle County. The quarantine was fur¬ 
ther amended to include in the series of products hitherto desig¬ 
nated as “soil, compost, and manure,’ also “sand, earth, and 
peat.” In addition to farm products, nursery and ornamental 
stock, these now become subject to the regulations of the quar¬ 
antine, which control their movement. 
Other minor verbal changes were also made.
