CODLING MOTH ( Carpoc apsa pomonella L. ) 
Delaware. L. A. Stearns (June 23): Emergence of spring-brood moths ended 
by June 14; peak of first-brood larval entry, June 7 to 14. 
South Carolina, F. Sherman (June 23):; The codling moth is apparently less 
abundant than normal at Clemson College, 
Georgia. C. H. Alden (June 23): Codling moth moderately abundant at Cornelia, 
first brood moths appearing in numbers on June 17, 
Indiana. J. J. Davis (June 22): Codling moth is as abundant or raore so 
than in I926 or I93O, and the second-brood worms will be appreciably 
earlier than usual. In many regions more than the usual number of 
sprays will need to be applied* 
Michigan. Ray Hut son (June 12): Adults became active in Berrien County 
on May l8, more than a week. earlier than any marked flight was noticed 
a year ago. Exceedingly hot weather has brought the peak of emergence 
at least 2 weeks before the usual date. 
Wisconsin. C. L. Fluke (June 23)? The codling moth is more abundant than 
last year. The peak of emergence v/as reached on May 31. 
Missouri. L. Haseman (June 25): The situation is again serious. Most of 
the first-brood larvae were out of the fruit by June 20, indicating that 
the July brood of moths will be heavy and bunched. 
Minnesota. A. G. Ruggles (June 26): The codling moth appears to be rela- 
tively scarce. It will have only a few apples to feed on, as the drought 
has caused a tremendous drop. 
Kansas. H. R. Bryson (June 2&): The codling moth is about as injurious 
as usual in Doniphan County. Hail in the vicinity of Atchison damaged 
apples so that increased injury by the second brood of codling moth can 
be expected, 
Oregon. B. G. Thompson (May 28): Codling moth depositing considerable 
number of eggs the last few days. First moth found on May 21, 
California, E. 0. Essig (June .24): The codling moth is moderately abundant. 
EASTERN TENT CATERPILLAR ( Malacosoma americana Fab.) 
Maine. H. B. Peirson (June 10):" The insect is general in the State, with 
very heavy outbreaks. .. . 
New Hampshire. L. C. Glover (June 25): Slightly less abundant this year 
over the State as a whole, but more abundant in some localities. Fly- 
ing moths were observed to be very numerous on June 22,
