The California peach borer, 3Jfirria o})a1p.9crn<^. II. E(hv. — In contra- 

 diction of the general belief and publislied statements that the .Myro- 

 balan stock is comparatively resistant to the attacks of the California 

 peach borer, Deputy Horticultural Conunissioner D. P. T. McDonald 

 and Horticultural Inspector 11. R. Hunt of Alameda County report 

 very severe infestation to this stock at Niles, California. The observa- 

 tions made by these officials are of much importance in that Myrobalan 

 stock has been recommended for localities where this insect occurs. 



It is also of interest tliat Horticultural Conniiissi(in(>r A. A. Broek. 

 of Ventura County, has found this insect in the orchards of the Bards- 

 dale district across the river from Fillmore in liis county. — E. O. Essig.
