been found all over the State, .'.'any growers are applying special 
control measures. In general the infestations on pear are light. 
The fruit on bearing trees is being attacked. (August 13): Inju- 
ry from the green gople aphid has been common throughout the State 
At the present time, because of the activity of parasites and pre- 
dators, little damage is being done. While this certainly was an 
outbreak year the damage in general was not quite so serious as 
in 1918. Commercial orchards show some blackening of the fruit 
and leaves but it is not likely that much fruit is deformed or wil] 
be blackened up by harvest. 
B. A. Porter (August 27): The severe infestations reported last 
month have mostly subsided, after the aphids had caused severe 
damage in many orchards, 
C. lakeland (July 29): The apple aphid is much more abundant in 
all apple orchards this season than usual. Noticeably few para- 
sites present, 
ROSY APPLE APHID ( Anuraphis roseus Eaker) 
C. lakeland (July 29): Heaviest infestations of this aphid in ap- 
ple orchards that have occurred for at least seven years. They 
remained on the trees until July 1 in some instances and caused 
a great many shrunken and deformed apples. 
WOOLLY APPLE APHID ( Sriospm? lani gerum Hausm. ) 
J. J. Davis (August 1): The woolly apple aphid is abundant through- 
out the State but apparently of no economic importance regardless 
of its frequent occurrence. 
K. K. Riley (August 20): The woolly apple aphid was reported from 
Liberty August 6.

A. I» Bourne (August 18): Red-humpafb caterpillars have begun to 
make their appearance and their conspicuous work has been the 
cause of numerous complaints. From our observations to date I 
should figure they sere about normal in abundance, infestation not 
being so serious as was the case last year. 
CODLING- MOTH ( Caroccapsa uomonella L. ) 
J. J. Davis (August l): The weather during July was ideal for cod- 
ling-moth development, and the infestation in southern Indiana is 
again threatening 
B. A. Porter (August 27): leather conditions continue unfavorable 
to the rapid development of the codling moth. Indications are
