MISCELLANEOUS PEEPERS 
PALL ARMYWORM ( Laphygma frugiperda S. & A. ) 
J. N. Tenhet (August 17): Twelver-acre field of corn attacked. Corn 
is in silk, and although infestation is heavjr, corn will probably

from crab grass, growing in orchards, to adjacent cornfields. 
W. P. Flint (August 18): The fall armyworm has been reported from

ing into the pupal stage at this time, so that another brood will 
certainly occur in the State this fall. Severe damage to corn lias 
been reported in several cases.
