Weekly News Letter, New York State College of Agriculture

in the Lake fruit "belt, and on May 25 the first adult was caught 
in "bait traps in Ulster County, (Abstract J. A. H.) 
Weekly News Letter, New Jersey State College of Agriculture 
(May) : By May 9 approximately 65 per cent of the overwintering 
codling moths were in the pupal stage in Gloucester County. A 
few adults were oh served in this county on May- 16 and by the 
23d of the month moths were numerous. (Abstract J. A. H.) 
H 8 N. Worthley (May 20) : The first adult codling moth was 
captured in a bait pail May 18-19, at State College. (May 27) I 
About 15 per cent codling moth emergence at State College; 
17 per cent at Arendtsville, Adams County, 
L. A. Stearns (April 30): Pupation of overwintered larvae 
delayed, but 3 per cent had pupated on April 24 at Camden; 
abnormally abundant; 75 per cent of overwintered larvae pupated 
May 21. First emergence of spring-brood moths May 8. 
P. D. Sanders & C. Graham (May 26): The codling moth 
emergence is later than in 1930. Last year on May 15 at Hancock 
35 per cent of the overwintering moths hr.d emerged and at 
Salisbury nearly 40 per cent emerged. On May 15 this year 
emergence had hardly begun. There seems to be a much heavier 
carry-over than normal,'; both inside the packing houses and on 
the tree trunks. Peak of emergence on Eastern Shore May 21, 
Records net available for this week from western Maryland, 
where emergence began on May 11. Records up to May 16 indicate 
that that was the peak up to that time. 
C. H. Alden (May 20): The codling moth is moderately abundant 
at Cornelia, the first-brood eggs hatching from May 17 to 23, 
T. H. Parks (May 25): Spring-brood moths began emerging in 
Lawrence County May 9; in Cincinnati and Columbus May? 15, and iiL 
Wooster. May 19, and have not yet commenced to emerge along 
Lake Erie. At Columbus only three nights since emergence 
commenced have been warm enough for egg laying, 
C. C e Compton through I. P. Flint (May 18): Recent examination 
of overwintering larvae in orchard cages showed 97 per cent 
winter survival as compared with 10 per cent survival under 
these same conditions for 1929-30. Pupation started at 
Des Plaiaas May 2, as compared with May 5 for 1930,
