C0DLI1TG MOTH ( Carpocapsa pomonella L. ) 
ilew York. IT. Y. State Coll. Agr. ITews Letter (June): Owing to unfavorable 
weather very little damage has been done by the codling moth this month. 
Delaware, L. A. Stearns (June 19): Twenty percent mortality of overwintered 
larvae; emergence of the spring brood completed June 13; first first-brood 
larvae hatched on May 30; peak of moth activity as indicated by bait pans 
on May 29; first injury observed in apple orchard on June 6; injury to 
date much lighter than usual. 
Maryland. E. IT. Cory (June 22): Codling moth emergence has been retarded 
by cool weather. There is a strong probability that a large second brood 
may occur. 
Georgia. C. H. Alden (June 20): Codling moth scarce, lowest infestation in 
a number of years, but beginning to increase. 
Ohio. T. E. Parks («June 25): Emergence of moths at Columbus was heavy between 
May 30 and June 5 end again between June 9 a^d 15. 3ait-pan catches 
started up again yesterday. The first larval entrances were seen in Law- 
rence County on June 6, in Miami Counts'" on June 12, and at Columbus on 
June 13. First-brood larvae are much loss abundant than last year and 
many nights during the past 3 weeks have been rainy and unfavorable for 
egg laying. Moths are still emerging from overwintering cocoons but only 
a few emerge each day. It is quite apparent that the codling moth will 
not be the problem it has been during the past 5 years.
