proportion of the eggs have apparently dried up instead

vT. P. Flint (August 16): The extreme dry weather of the 
past month has been somewhat favorable to the codling moth. 
The insect has been increasing on the "hole and is slightly 
more abundant than usual for this date. ".Tell sprayed orchards, 
however, are very clean in all parts of the State.

infestations in some of the apple orchards in Henderson 
County. 
A. J. Ackerman (August 11): The codling moth caused 
serious damage last year following the first brood and this 
year it appears that the insect rill be more injurious during 
the late season.

in as great abundance as "'as expected by the very early season.

infestation over what it would have been in a normal year.

been puzzling throughout the year. There were three small 
peaks of emergence of adults of the first brood and no time

emergence. This condition has made the planning of spra} r 
applications very difficult. Gror:ers in general have ap:lied 
from one to two more cover sprays than ordinarily and control 
to date is exceptionally good.
