FRUIT I IT SECTS 
APPLE 
CODLING MOTH ( CarpocaPsa pomonella L.) 
New York. W, E. Blauvelt (August 20): After an apparent rest for a. week 
to ten days, the codling moth seems to have come to life again and is 
making fresh entrances each day in Dutchess County, and is causing con- 
siderable injury on unsprayed trees in Suffolk County. Not many second- 
brood larvee are entering fruits in Clinton County. 
E. R. Wagner (August 27): Stings are appearing in considerable 
numbers in "badly infested orchards in Orleans County, wh^re the first 
brood was not controlled. 
Maryland. E. N. Cory (August 20): The. third brood (second summer brood) 
of the codling moth is moderately abundant in western Maryland; numer- 
ous in some orchards. 
Ohio, T. H. Parks (August 20): The codling moth is more abundant than 
usual and threatens to be serious in a few orchards where it has been 
troublesome for several years. In one orchard in Eranklin County, 
healthy apples, which had received two cover sprays in June but no 
spray for the second generation, became quite wormy early in August. 
In most orchards the control is satisfactory. 
Missouri. L. Haseman (Augast 2h) : During July there was practically no 
egg laying and up to August 20 no young worms. With more moisture 
.and cooler temperatures, late moths are breeding and we may exuect 
late worms. 
Idaho. C. Wakeland (August 20): The codling moth is very abundant at 
Lewi st on end in southwestern Idaho. 
Nevada. G. G. Schweis (Augast 21): The codling moth is moderately abun- 
dant, and apparently damage is less than last year. 
A PYRALID (Suzophera semi funeral is Walk. ) 
Indiana. L. F. Steiner (August 21): This borer is causing some damage 
to bridge-grafted apple trees in Vincennes. As high as 52 borers were 
found on a single trunk, working in new and diseased wood along the 
grafts. Adults are emerging and larvae of all instars seem to be pres- 
ent. (Det. by G. E. Marshall of Purdue University) 
APPLE MAGGOT ( Rh ago let, is po monella Walsh) 
Connecticut, p. Garman (August 23): More apple jnaggots are emerging from 
the soil this year than last, and more have been seen in August in 
apple orchards than usual. The light crop of fruit will doubtless help
