Georgia. P. M. Gilmer and P. A. Glick (August 28): Aphids increasing in the 
Upper Coastal Plain. Sone damage to lint in Sea Island cotton likely 
to occur. 
Florida. L. C. Fife and C. S. Rude (August 27): Aphids have "built up in the 
last 2 weeks, especially in fields that have "been heavily dusted. Para- 
sites, present in large numbers 3 weeks ago, seem to have disappeared. 
Mississippi. C. Lylc (August 2^): Infestations of cotton aphid ( Aphis 
gossypii Glov.) heavier this season than for several years owing to 
control measures for the "boll weevil. 
Louisiana. C. 0. Eddy (August): Unusually abundant on cotton this year, 
probably owing to such intensive control measures for "boll weevil. 
M. T. Young and assistants (August 27) : Heavy in treated fields and 
found in greater numbers than usual in untreated fields in Madison Parish. 
Oklahoma. E. E. Ivy (August 21) : Abundant on cotton all summer in 1.1c Curtain

festation much heavier in some fields than in others, and staining of 
lint quite likely to occur.

in fields in Calhoun and Jackson Counties, as heavily infested plants 
have lost their green color in comparison with more lightly infested ones.

cally cleared up, owing principally to parasites, but somewhat to predators,
