366 JOURNAL OP ECONOMIC ENTOMOLOGY [Vol. 2 



Demonstration work is particularly adapted to localities where there 

 is very little interest in economic entomology. Practical experimental 

 work in well-informed communities is most important, since such lo- 

 calities, whether special attention be given to publicity or not, in real- 

 ity become university extension centers. This discussion might be 

 greatly amplified and undoubtedly much of value would be derived 

 therefrom if entomologists from different parts of the country would 

 give us the benefit of their experience. 



The advisability of making changes in the management of the 

 Journal is a matter likely to come up for consideration at the com- 

 ing meeting. The Journal Publishing Company was organized 

 primarily to afford a ready means for the publication of the proceed- 

 ings of the American Association of Economic Entomologists. There 

 was no thought of monetary gain, either on the part of the company 

 as a whole or by specially interested individuals. In fact, care was 

 taken in drafting the articles of organization to prevent one or a 

 group of individuals from securing control, since it was deemed wise 

 to have a thoroughly representative organ. The Journal Company 

 has demonstrated the possibility of issuing this serial without financial 

 loss. The question has been raised as to the advisabilty of the asso- 

 cation taking over the Journal and have the membership fee (the lat- 

 ter raised to $2 for active members, $1.50 for associate members and 

 $1.00 for foreign members) include subscription to the official organ. 

 Every economic entomologist should possess a copy of this publica- 

 tion. The wisdom of this will become much more apparent in subse- 

 quent years. Some amendment to the by-laws would be necessary if 

 the change is made. This can easily be arranged by the secretary 

 giving thirty days' notice of the proposed amendments. This change 

 would render a publishing company unnecessary, give the association 

 direct control of its official organ and effect an economy in the col- 

 lection of subscriptions.

Recent Work on the Codling ]\Ioth.^ — Three recent reports of in- 

 vestigations of the codling moth have added very much to our 

 knowledge of the life history and control of this pest in Arkansas, 

 Virginia and Georgia. These studies confirm observations made by 

 others on the following points: Practically all eggs of the first gen- 

 eration are laid on the leaves ; a larger proportion of the larvie of the 

 second brood enter at the side and stem ; the drenching spray shows no
