Arkansas B. A. Porter (June 21): From a letter from A. J. Ackerman, 
May 4. "We are having a rather bad outbreak of the rosy a oule 
aphid at Bentonvilie this^spring. Iviore damage has been done 
to date than in any previous season. 2ach season this insect 
seems to become more abundant. The first aphids were found on 
March 31 and since that time we have had continuous cold, -vet 
weather so that parasites and predators have not started to 
work."
