RESULTS AT LINCOLN. 



Lincoln is located 65 miles west of Roswell, between El Capitan 

 Mountain and Sierra Blanca peak, a northerly spur of the Sacramento 

 M(juntains, and has an altitude of some 5,700 feet. Through the 

 c<jurtosy of Dr. J. W. Laws a number of l)earing apple trees were set 

 aside for use in banding, and these furnished larvae throughout the 

 season. While the; bands were [)Iuced on the trees early in May, no 

 larvae wore found until Juno 1.'^ iJospite the fact that larvae oc- 

 curred more or less intermittently from that date until the season 

 clos(ul, November 7, it would ap[)oar that only two full broods and 

 a partial third are found in <ho iiigher fruit-growing regions. 



The nicords found in Table LXl show ttiat the maximum nuiu])er
