2() PARASITES OF THE COTTON BOLL WEEVIL. 
annual temperature of 70° and a precipitation of 30 inches. At 
Beeville the average percentage of parasitism in fallen squares was 
1.3 per cent, at Goliad 8.5 per cent, at Victoria 3 per cent. This 
condition occurs throughout the entire State. At Calvert the per- 
centage of infestation of squares on August 28 was 55.6 per cent and 
at Goliad it was 20.9 per cent, and yet the average percentage of 
parasitism in fallen squares at Calvert was 1.4 per cent and Goliad 
8.5 per cent. A reverse condition may be cited as follows: At 
Cuero the percentage of infestation of squares on August 28 was 
74 per cent and at Victoria it was 32.7 per cent, and the average per- 
centage of parasitism in hanging squares at Cuero was 19.9 per cent 
and at Victoria 10.2 per cent. Table XII gives in detail the irregu- 
larity displayed between these three factors.
