Wisconsin. E. L. Chambers (September 20): . Walnut trees throughout southern 
Wisconsin were completely defoliated late in August and early in September. 
Missouri. L. Haseman (September 23) J; Throughout practically the entire State 
the second-generation larvae ate the foliage from walnut, hickory, and 
pecan trees. Early in September larvae forced to migrate in search of food 
in central Missouri fairly carpeted the ground' around walnut trees that were 
stripped. Many medium-sized trees had from 15 to r jQ> colonies of these worms 
feeding -on them.' This insect has been serious in recent years but never 
has it done the. damage that it did' this fall. The season is late enough 
so that no serious injury will be done to the trees. In many places the 
larvae wore so abundant that most of the later colonies died of starvation, 
though great numbers have gone into winter quarters. 
Oklahoma,. C. F. Stiles (September 18): The second brood has defoliated a large 
percentage of the pecan and walnut trees throughout the State. This is the 
second time that these trees have been "defoliated this season. The growers 
are considerably, worried about- the future of ' the pecan industry as many of 
the trees are weakened and will die during: the coming year.

on September l6 and from Grenada on September 21.
