Indiana J. J. Davis (August 20 ) : Observed injury to oaks and hickories 
north of Corydon to Corvdon Junction, the injury being especially 
common near-iCorydon Junction. N. I. Clunie, the County Agricul- 
tural Agent, writes that the cicadas were abundant in the north- 
central part of Harrison County and also in the southeastern part , 
mentioning especially the vicinity of Laconia. He reports seme 
damage to young orchards. 
GIPSY MOTH f Porthetria dispar L.) 
Massachusetts A, I. Bourne (July 25): In northern Worcester County, Mr* Calkins 
reports the gipsy moth as very scarce and as doing less damage 
than the appls tent caterpillar. Mr. Hoxie of East Sandwich, 
which is on the Cape, reports that caterpillars do not appear to 
be anywhere nearly as numerous as last year. Mr. Farrar, of 
Middlesex County, has found but one gipsy moth caterpillar in his 
orchard this season. It is very evident therefore that both the 
gipsy moth and the brown-tail moth are proving considerably less 
abundant than is normally the case. 
BROW-TAIL MOTH ( Euproctis chrysorrhoea L.) 
Massachusetts A. I. Bourne (July 25): Mr. Fiske of Lunenburg states that in 
hiar orchard the damage was practically nil and the brown-tails 
were virtually extinct. The same condition prevails in northern 
Worcester County, where this season Mr. Calkins , reports prac- 
tically no brown-tails seen this year. Mr. Farrar, of Middlesex 
County, reports seeing no brown-tail caterpillars or moths this 
year. They were noted, however, in considerable abundance in 
the region of Woods Hole, down at the heel of the Cape. 
ELM SPANWORM ( EnnomQs subsignariu s Huebn.) 
New York R. E. Horsey; The snow-white linden moth is very common near 
lights July" 9, a few still to be found July 13, none last year 
but a swarm on June 27, 1921. at Rochester. 
WHITE-MARKET) TUSSOCK MOTH ( Kenerocampa leucostigroa S. & A.) 
New York V. E. Peterson (July): Spraying for the caterpillar of the tussock 
moth, which has infested the trees of Buffalo in great numbers, has 
just been finished. Conditions have been worse this year than for 
some years previous. 
R. E. Horsey (July 17): The' white-marked tussock moth was reported 
very scarce at Rochester, but two horse chestnut trees were found 
stripped of foliage, perhaps more this year than in 1922, as none 
were reported last year. 
Ohio H. A. Gossard (August 20): The white-marked tussock caterpillar 
was received August 8, from Geneva on grape and on August 17 from 
Columbus on plum and elm. This insect has been observed to be 
numerous in several Ohio localities. It is more plentiful than 
it has been for some years.
