SA1T JOSS SCALE ( ^.spidiotus pemiciosu s Comst.) 
A. I. Bourne (April 25): We have had some reports of the 
appearance of the San Jose scale in occasional orchards over 
the State. The scale has apparently built up gradually in 
those orchards which have been favored by freedom from Euro- 
pean red mite infestation, and consequently the growers in 
those orchards neglected to make any dormant applications. 
N. Y. State Coll. of Agr., Weekly News Letter (April): 
The San Jose scale us. so plentiful in Ulster County that 
most growers are applying special treatments for its control. 
It wa.s also reported as very abundant in Orange, Erie, 
Ontario, a.nd Ya.tes Counties. (Abstract, J.A.H.) 
C. R. Crosby (Aoril ?5): The San Jose scale is much more 
abundant than in several yea.rs. 
P. J. Parrot t ( April): The San Jose scale is very abun- 
dant in western Hew York. 
T. L. G-uyton (April 2l): The San Jose scale is very abun- 
dant. About 10 per cent living scale on trees in Franklin 
County in unsprayed orchards. 
J. R. Stear (April 2l): The San Jose scale has had a 
heavy mortality in at least one apple orchard in Ligonier. 
Counts of 3,863 scales made February 11 showed 42 per cent 
dead. Of 531 scales examined April 8, 88 per cent were dead. 
This is probably due to sub-zero weather for a few days in 
March.
