Z. "". Menderihall (February 19): "bis insect is quite 
abundant on apple and peer trees on private properties in 
Archbold and Fulton Counties. 
R. F. Sazama (February 12): Counts shov: a mortality of 
32.9 per cent, which is normal for this, region. 7...; trees 
from which the t^igs were taken have been very seriously 
injured by the extreme^lov temperatures experienced this 
winter. The lowest temperature recorded was -20° F. Ap- 
parently the scale is able to withstand at certain tin 3£ 
temperatures fatal to peach trees. 
'■*.". P. Flint (February 22): Recent examinations of the San 
Jose scale to note the effect of the extremely cola re tfc r 
of January on the hibernating scales have shown that in the 
section of the State north of a line drawn from St. Louis to 
Centralia less than 2 per cent of the San Jose scale are 
alive. The percentage of live scales increases gradually 
from this point on south. In the Ashley-Centralia district 
from 2 to 4 per cent of the scales are alive according tc 
I'r. Chandler's counts, and 16 per cent of the scales are 
alive at Carbondale and 40 per cent alive in the extreme 
southern peach -growing districts. In that section of the 
"State, where less than 2 per cent of the scales have sur- 
vived, it is doubtful if a dormant scale spray "ill be 
necessary. 
W. A. Price (February 22): The San Jose scale is mod- 
erately abundant over the state. 
E. L. Chambers (February 27): The San Jose scale has 
evidently come through this much of *he winter •"itl" 
serious loss. 
C. J. Drake (February 25): Tee San Jose scale is in- 
creasing end spreading in southeastern Iov?a. 
Z. C. Sullivan (February 20): The San Jose scale is very 
abundant. A high percentage survived the "'inter. 
L. Haseman (February 24): Scarce at Columbia; with 16° 
F. temperature., mortality ^as about 80 per cent. 
R. L. Parker (February 22): The San Jose scale is mod- 
erately abundant in eastern Kansas, or in the fruit belt. 
Worst in southeast Kansas.
