L. M. Peairs (August 2?): The oriental fruit moth is 
considerably less abundant than it was during 1929. 
0. I. S n app (August 13): The oriental fruit moth in- 
festation continues light at Tort Valley, 
77. H. Clarke (July 30): The infestation in middle 
Georgia has been light all season. Only a very few cases 
of fruit injury have been noted, 
C. H. Alden (July 25): The oriental fruit moth is 
moderately abundant at Cornelia. 
A Lutken (July 30): The oriental fruit moth is moderately 
abundant in the northern part of the State. 
J. S. Houser (August 11): The oriental fruit moth is 
moderately abundant. Dry weather is not favorable to this 
insect. 
T. H. Parks (August 25): Early varieties of peaches 
harvested in mid-August are not seriously infested. 
P. H. Lathrop (August 12): The oriental fruit moth has 
not been so abundant in southern Indiana this season as its 
activities last summer presaged. It is probable that there 
was heavy mortality of overwintering larvae as a result 
of low temperatures. Nevertheless, the infestation of 
peach twigs by the first-brood larvae was approximately 
equal to that of the preceding spring. The second and later 
broods failfc 1 to increase in numbers to normal expectancy. 
Since July 1 there has been slight increase in most of the 
orchards of this area. During the past two weeks, there 
has been a slight decrease of infestation in some orchards. 
Moths developed from twigs brought into the laboratory 
this season are below normal size. In laboratory studies, 
the moths do not oviposit freely. 
J. J. Davis (August 19):. The oriental fruit moth is very 
abundant, especially in southern Indiana. 
PLUM CURCULIO ( Co nQ tracheitis nenuphar Hbst.) 
K. B. Peirson (August 16): The plum curculio is very 
abundant in general. 
P. R. Lowry (August): Considerable injury was noted 
during August in the southern part of the State. 
... I. Bourne (August 22): The plija curculio very generally 
appears to be doing less damage than usual, not only in the
