CODLING MOTH BAND STUDIES OF 1916. 



The same orchards, the Edwards and Hamilton, that were used in 

 the band studies in 1915 were again made use of in 1916. As in 1915, 

 the larvae were collected every three days from beneath burlap bands 

 that encircled the trunks of certain trees and were kept under condi- 

 tions identical with those that obtained the previous season.
