and 26. A lesser peak occurred on July 20. Two peaks of emergence of adults 
from second-year puparia were noted; one on July 8 and one on July 12. 
WOOLLY APPLE APHID (Sriosoma lanigerum Hausm.) 
California. E. 0. Sssig (August 21): The woolly apple aphid is very abundant at 
Berkeley. 
SAN JOSE SCALE ( Aspidiotus oerniciosus Comst.) 
Tennessee. G. M. Bentley (August): The San Jose scale is moderately abundant 
all over the State, in orchards and on wild stock. Nursery stock is fairly 
clean. 
PEAR LEAP BLISTER MITE ( Eriophyes pyri Pgst.) 
Utah. G-. F. Knowlton (August l): Pear leaf blister mites have caused serious 
injury to a few apple trees at Smithfield. Apple trees at The Dell are 
heavily infested. 
PEACH 
ORIENTAL FRUIT MOTH ( Grapholitha molesta Busck) 
Massachusetts. A. I. Bourne (August 23): Injury by the oriental fruit moth is 
very general in peach-growing sections. 
Connecticut. P. G-arman (August 23): In general the infestation is declining, 
but there are prospects of considerable damage in some orchards this year. 
Delaware. D. MacCreary (August 23): The oriental fruit moth is moderately 
abundant on peaches. Fruit injury is somewhat greater in some areas than 
during the previous three years. 
Maryland. H. S. McConnell (August 22): The oriental fruit moth is very abundant. 
Illinois. W. P. Flint (August 22): Oriental fruit moth adults have been taken in 
larger numbers than usual in bait traps. 
South Carolina. W. C. Neetles (August 21): At Clemson College thare was less 
damage than usual to Elberta peaches, but more damage than usual to varieties 
ripening later than Elberta. 
Ohio. S. W. Mendenhall (August 24): The oriental fruit moth is very abundant 
this year all over the State, especially where treatment was not given. 
Indiana. J. J. Davis (August 29): The oriental fruit worm has been very abundant. 
The earliest peaches were not heavily infested in many cases but the later 
peaches were almost universally infested and frequently very heavily infested. 
Where peaches adjoin or are interplanted with apple, the apple fruit will 
almost certainly show a high infestation. 
Arkansas. D. Isely (August 23): The oriental fruit moth is unusually abundant 
for this time of year in green peach shoots. Probably this is due to the late 
rains which have caused an excessive amount of green growth.
