ROUNDHEAEE D APPLE, TREE BORER ( Saperda Candida' F. )•

SHOT-HOLE BORER ( Scolytus rugulosus Ratz.)

EUROPEAN RED MITE ( Paratetranychus pilosus C. & F. )

wegt of State College. 
APPLE 
CODLING MOTH .( Carpocapsa pomonella L. ) 
New York. D. W, Hamilton (March 22); Winter temperatures at Poughkeepsie and 
vicinity moderate. Mortality, of larvae low, only 12 percent of 219 
larvae removed from burlap bands on trees on March 21 found dead. March 
temperatures lower than those of 193S. Present indications that spring 
noth emergence will begin nearer to normal and later than last year. 
Michigan. R. Hutson (March 28): Codling moth seems to have come through the 
winter without undue mortality. Counts made at Paw Paw and Eau Claire 
indicate mortality of less than 10 percent. 
Georgia. J. E, Webb, Jr. (March 23): Larvae just beginning to pupate in the 
Cornelia section. 
Kentucky. W. A. Price (March 24): Winter mortality of larvae very low in 
orchards in both eastern and western Kentucky. Survival estimated at 
from 85 to 90 percent, 
Illinois. W. P. Flint (March 27 ): Survival very high, although’ less than the 
normal number ™ent into hibernation last fall. 
Missouri. L. Hasenan (March 10): Winter rather favorable for larvae. In 
breeding-cage studies at Columbia some of rearing sticks show rather high 
mortality, attributed largely to general condition of larvae when taken 
last fall, rather than to the winter. Despite the facts that most of the 
St<ate had a very light apple crop and a reduced control program last 
summer, there is a fair carry-over throughout west-central, northern, cand 
southeastern Missouri. Carry-over light throughout central and south- 
western Missouri, owing to absence of fruit last year.
