  Throughout 
  the 
  State 
  and 
  throughout 
  the 
  season. 
  

   There 
  are 
  three 
  broods 
  in 
  the 
  southern 
  half 
  of 
  the 
  State, 
  the 
  earliest 
  

   larva 
  being 
  the 
  "tomato 
  worm," 
  which 
  bores 
  into 
  the 
  earliest 
  fruit, 
  

   while 
  the 
  later 
  broods 
  infest 
  first 
  sweet 
  and 
  then 
  field 
  corn, 
  speci- 
  

   mens 
  being 
  found 
  in 
  the 
  ears 
  as 
  late 
  as 
  October. 
  Early 
  in 
  the 
  spring 
  

   the 
  larva 
  may 
  also 
  bore 
  into 
  pea-pods 
  and 
  attack 
  a 
  variety 
  of 
  

   other 
  vegetation. 
  They 
  winter 
  as 
  pupse 
  in 
  cornfields, 
  and 
  the 
  best 
  

   check 
  to 
  their 
  increase 
  is 
  late 
  fall 
  plowing, 
  which 
  exposes 
  and 
  de- 
  

   stroys 
  them 
  in 
  this 
  helpless 
  stage. 
  The 
  application 
  of 
  insecticides 
  

   has 
  not 
  been 
  found 
  practical.
