There are other insects which may be found feeding upon grapes, 
but none of them have ever caused enough damage to deserve con- 
sideration here. That pernicious insect, the San Jose Scale, has been 
found upon the grape, but it was caused by the proximity of a fav- 
orite host plant with which the grape locked branches. None of the 
insects here considered ha\e been persistent enemies of the grape in 
Pennsylvania. The Rose-chafer has broken out in a few localities 
in alarming numbers, but peaceful conditions soon returned and 
grape culture became again the pleasant task that it usually is. Fun- 
gous diseases are a much greater menace to grape culture than in- 
sects are, but both classes of enemies can be met with remedies, 
which if thoroughly and intelligently applied, will secure to the 
grape grower the pleasure and profit he anticipated in his vineyard.
