the green apple aphid began to appear in large numbers throughout the eastern

CODLING- MOTH ( Cairo capsa porno nel la L . )

stantial third brood in the Roanoke district this year. 
Georgia. C. H. Alden (August 26): The codling moth is moderately abundant at 
Cornelia. It is not so injurious as in 1931. 
Indiana. G. E. Marshall (August 26): Adults of the second-brood codling moth 
emerged at Bedford August 17„ The heavy rains which fell during the first 
part of the month seemed to slow down the activities of the second brood 
worms considerably in the southern half of the State. 
Illinois. W. P. Plint (August 19): The codling moth has been more abundant and 
destructive in southern Illinois than at any time during the last ten years. 
The older apple orchards in that section are so heavily infested that in 
some cases the crop will not be picked. 
Michigan. R. H. Petti t (August 22): Codling moths are very abundant. 
Wisconsin. E. L. Chambers and assistants (August): The codling moth was reported 
as very abundant throughout the State. (Abstract J.A.H.) 
Missouri. L. Haseman (August 25): In spite of our short apple crop and therefore 
a reduction in the number of sprays applied this year our growers are con- 
trolling the pest better than usual. Late worms are still entering the fruit. 
Idaho.- R. W. Haegele (August 24): Second-brood codling moth activity has been 
unusually great and prolonged during August, necessitating one or two extra 
sprays. Worm injury expected to be more than normal in the fruit district 
of southwestern Idaho.
