ment on July 22nd, and several had pupated on the way; all 
the rest that were uninjured pupated within a day or so after

arrived, but this premature emergence was probably due to 
the rough usage of their long trip, which included sixty miles 
or more by team or auto to get to the railroad. Most of the 
pup are now dormant, and evidently will yield the adult in 
the spring.
