ONE-SPRAY METHOD FOR CODLING MOTH, ETC. 143 
Similar comparison may also be made from the data from Arkansas. 
Thus, on the unsprayed plat (V) for each first-brood larva there were 
4.8 second-brood larve. On Plat III (one spray) for each larva of 
the first brood there were 105.6 larvee of the second brood. Plat I 
(one-spray method) shows for each first-brood larva 121.5 second- 
brood larve. 
To show the comparative efficiency of the demonstation and one- 
spray treatments in preventing infestation at calyx, side, and stem, 
Table XXII is presented.

a Each entrance was counted in determining the percentages for calyx, side, and stem, so that the sum 
of these percentages exceeds the total percentage of wormy fruit. 
It is here seen that the two methods of spraying were about equally 
effective in preventing entrance at the calyx, and that the one-spray 
method had practically no effect upon side entrance. The demon- 
stration treatment saved a total of 4.03 per cent of the crop more 
than the one-spray, practically all of this saving being due to the pre- 
vention of side entrance. But, as in all the other experiments, the 
demonstration treatment failed to reduce side entrance to anything 
like the same degree that calyx entrance was prevented. 
THE PLUM CURCULIO.
