  respect 
  to 
  apples, 
  pears 
  and 
  quinces, 
  is 
  that 
  of 
  omitting 
  a 
  number 
  of 
  

   districts 
  from 
  the 
  area 
  of 
  the 
  Cape 
  Province, 
  into 
  which 
  the 
  removal 
  

   of 
  these 
  fruits 
  has 
  been 
  prohibited 
  for 
  the 
  past 
  seven 
  years. 
  Care 
  is 
  

   necessary 
  to 
  avoid 
  the 
  removal 
  of 
  prohibited 
  fruit 
  into 
  " 
  protected 
  " 
  

   portions 
  of 
  the 
  Union, 
  and 
  every 
  wrongful 
  removal 
  is 
  to 
  be 
  reported 
  

   to 
  the 
  Magistrate 
  of 
  the 
  district 
  in 
  which 
  the 
  oflence 
  occurred, 
  and 
  the 
  

   consigner 
  and 
  consignee 
  may 
  both 
  be 
  punished. 
  The 
  protected 
  areas 
  

   are 
  enumerated, 
  and 
  removals 
  are 
  not 
  allowed 
  from 
  one 
  protected 
  

   area 
  into 
  another. 
  The 
  removal 
  of 
  boxes, 
  etc., 
  that 
  have 
  been 
  used 
  

   for 
  the 
  storage 
  or 
  conveyance 
  of 
  apples, 
  pears, 
  and 
  quinces 
  into 
  areas 
  

   into 
  w^hich 
  the 
  removal 
  of 
  these 
  fruits 
  is 
  prohibited 
  is 
  illegal. 
  The 
  

   return 
  into 
  a 
  protected 
  area 
  of 
  boxes, 
  etc., 
  that 
  have 
  been 
  used 
  for 
  the 
  

   conveyance 
  of 
  any 
  of 
  the 
  fruits 
  named, 
  to 
  any 
  place 
  outside 
  of 
  that 
  

   area 
  is 
  not 
  allowed. 
  It 
  is 
  also 
  illegal 
  to 
  use 
  second-hand 
  apple-barrels, 
  

   pear-boxes, 
  etc., 
  for 
  the 
  sending 
  of 
  any 
  produce 
  into 
  a 
  protected 
  area. 
  

   Travellers 
  by 
  train 
  and 
  cart 
  would 
  be 
  violating 
  the 
  restrictions 
  if 
  they 
  

   took 
  any 
  prohibited 
  fruit 
  into 
  a 
  protected 
  area. 
  The 
  removal 
  of 
  the 
  

   restricted 
  articles 
  through 
  a 
  protected 
  area 
  in 
  direct 
  transit 
  by 
  rail 
  or 
  

   post 
  from 
  a 
  place 
  outside 
  of 
  it 
  to 
  a 
  place 
  outside 
  of 
  it, 
  is 
  allowed. 
  The 
  

   object 
  of 
  the 
  regulations 
  is 
  to 
  check 
  the 
  spread 
  of 
  codling-moth 
  into 
  

   parts 
  of 
  the 
  Union 
  which 
  are 
  still 
  supposed 
  to 
  be 
  free 
  from 
  this 
  pest, 
  

   and 
  which 
  are 
  considered 
  generally 
  suitable 
  for 
  the 
  culture 
  of 
  apples 
  or 
  

   pears. 
  The 
  contraction 
  of 
  the 
  protected 
  Cape 
  area 
  was 
  prompted 
  by 
  

   the 
  presence 
  of 
  the 
  pest 
  in 
  many 
  places 
  within 
  the 
  parts 
  now 
  omitted 
  

   from 
  the 
  protected 
  area. 
  The 
  presence 
  of 
  the 
  pest, 
  to 
  a 
  very 
  small 
  

   extent, 
  is 
  suspected 
  in 
  many 
  places 
  within 
  the 
  still 
  protected 
  areas,, 
  

   and 
  as 
  a 
  check 
  on 
  its 
  spread 
  from 
  sources 
  within, 
  the 
  Government 
  

   issued 
  Notice 
  366 
  of 
  1912. 
  The 
  effectiveness 
  of 
  these 
  various 
  measures 
  

   in 
  retarding 
  the 
  spread 
  of 
  the 
  codling 
  moth 
  will 
  depend 
  to 
  a 
  great 
  

   extent 
  on 
  the 
  alertness 
  of 
  parties 
  within 
  the 
  protected 
  regions 
  in 
  

   detecting 
  and 
  reporting 
  any 
  infringements. 
  Besides 
  repealing 
  

   Proclamation 
  No. 
  38 
  of 
  1912, 
  Proclamation 
  20 
  of 
  1913 
  also 
  announces 
  

   certain 
  restrictions 
  as 
  to 
  the 
  removal 
  of 
  grape 
  vine, 
  Virginia 
  creeper, 
  

   ampelopsis 
  or 
  other 
  plant 
  of 
  the 
  natural 
  order, 
  Vitaceae, 
  or 
  any 
  living 
  

   portion 
  (except 
  seed), 
  or 
  fresh 
  food 
  of 
  any 
  such 
  plant, 
  and 
  of 
  any 
  mango 
  

   trees 
  or 
  any 
  portion 
  thereof 
  (except 
  the 
  fruit), 
  and 
  of 
  apple, 
  pear 
  or 
  

   quince 
  fruit 
  in 
  its 
  fresh 
  state. 
  The 
  areas 
  protected 
  and 
  not 
  protected 
  

   in 
  respect 
  of 
  these 
  different 
  fruits 
  are 
  set 
  out, 
  as 
  also 
  the 
  various 
  lines 
  

   of 
  railway 
  along 
  which 
  the 
  transit 
  of 
  the 
  plants 
  and 
  fruit 
  mentioned 
  

   in 
  the 
  amendment, 
  may 
  or 
  may 
  not 
  be 
  carried.

  The 
  life-history 
  of 
  the 
  wattle 
  bagworm 
  

   (Chalioides 
  junodi, 
  Heylaerts) 
  is 
  given. 
  The 
  male 
  moths 
  begin 
  to 
  

   emerge, 
  and 
  the 
  females 
  become 
  adult 
  during 
  July. 
  In 
  August 
  egg- 
  

   laying 
  begins, 
  and 
  towards 
  the 
  middle 
  of 
  the 
  month 
  the 
  young 
  larvae 
  

   appear. 
  By 
  September 
  egg-laying 
  is 
  finished, 
  the 
  adult 
  moths 
  die 
  off, 
  

   and 
  the 
  main 
  brood 
  of 
  young 
  emerge 
  from 
  the 
  maternal 
  bags.
