CCTTCN RED SPIDER ( {Petranychus telarius L. ) 
W. F. Turner ( August 19): This species is seriously affecting 
cotton at Royston. 
L. Haseman (August 2): Serious infestations of patches of cotton 
are reported from Mississippi County. 
COTTON APHID ( Ajhis gossynii Glov.) 
B. R. Coad: This pest is reported as present at Chester. 
J. B. Gill (August 3): The cotton aphid appeared in injurious 
numbers in cotton fields in some sections of southern Georgia in 
Mitchell County. 
W. F. Turner (August 19): The cotton aphid is serious in Franklin 
and Floyd Counties. It is most serious in dusted fife Ids but is 
doing much damage in fields treated with the sirup mixture and in 
some untreated fields.

work in the tops of the cotton plants in Dona Ana County.

PERIODICAL CICADA ( Tibicen seotendecim IL.) 
BROOD XIV ( SEVENTEEN- YEAR RACE) 
Massachusetts A. I. Bourne (July 25): A report from Mr. Hoxie of Hyannis states 
that on the north side of the Cape they were particularly numerous, 
especially the last part of June and the early part of July, but 
as far as the injury to trees of economic value was concerned, the 
damage was very slight indeed. 
Ohio 
H. A. Gossard (July 25): The brood of the 17-year locust appeared 
perhaps a little later than the average season and continued until 
early July. From the large number of reports now in my hands I 
judge that the brood was more numerous than in 1P06 and that con- 
siderably more damage was dene to young orchards and to forest 
trees. Many young orchards were reported to us "Threatened or 
ruined." While I have not had time to check up fully on the in- 
fested territory, I think they appeared in considerable numbers in 
neighborhoods where they were comparatively sparse 17 years__ac
