Washington. E. J. Newcomer (September 20): Since the middle of August the number 
of moths caught in baits has been considerably less than for the corresponding 
period in 1931. The total for the second brood was 8,300 in 1931 and only 
5,500 in 1932. However, the percentage of infestation is about the same as 
last vear, owing to light crops or, in some cases, less careful methods of 
control. The Jonathan crop is reported by horticultural inspectors to average 
30 per cent wormy. 
Oregon. D. C. Mote (August): Codling moths are reported in the Willamette Valley. 
The peak of egg deposition of the second brood was reached August 26. 
California. H. J. Ryan (September 26): A large number of larvae hatched out late 
in the season. Codling moth control in pears in the Antelope Valley of northern 
Los Angeles County was much more satisfactory this season than last as was 
evidenced by the number of wormy fruits found by the packing houses this last 
month; control in walnuts was also satisfactory. In general pear orchards that 
were sprayed at least three times had less than 5 per cent wormy fruit. 
S. Lockwood (September 21): The codling moth has either been far more prevalent 
in pear orchards in the Sacramento delta district this year or control measures 
have been less effective, since the: 'percentage of culled fruits lias been much 
greater than heretofore. 
ERUIT TREE LEAF ROLLER ( Cacoecia arg'~rospila Walk. )
