'.' .' SAM JOSS SCALU ( Asnidiotus perniciosus Corns t.) 
W, 3. Britton (March 24): The San Jose scale is scarce. 
C. R. Crosby (March 26): The San Jose scale is generally 
more abundant than for several years. 
T. L. Guyton (March 21): The San Jose scale is very abund- 
ant, especially in the southeast. 
H. M. Worthley (March 23): The San Jose scale is moderately 
abundant at State College. There is about 50 per cent surviv- 
al t o dat e . . 
Thos. J. Headlee (March 5): The San Jose scale can not be 
considered on insect difficult to control under Mew Jersey con- 
ditions but there- is some evidence in certain old apple or- 
chards that ios vigor may be rising. I suopose this means 
that its parasitic enemies have become considerably reduced. 
There is nothing, even in these old orchards, of a threaten- 
ing character as yet but the -difficulty of securing satisfac- 
tory control with insecticides gives me the feeling that we 
mmst watch our step. 
L. A. Steams (March 23): The San Jose scale is slightly 
more abundant than usual. 
C. H. Alden (March 24): The San Jose scale is scarce at 
Cornelia and moderately abundant at Thomaston. 
W. P. Flint (March 19): An unusual percentage of the in- 
sect survived the winter in Central Illinois. In normal 
years from 25 to 30 per cent survival occurs. Counts made 
by Mr. Bigger, Mr. Parrar, Mr. Chandler, and others indicate 
that from 60 to 70 per cent of the scale have survived the 
winter 1930-31, 
J. J. Davis" (March 28): The San Jose scale is abundant on 
apple and poach .at Losantville. 
H. B. Bryson (March 20): The San Jose scale is reported as 
being moderately abundant. 
L. Haseman (March 23):, The San Jose scale is scarce. Over 
the St, ate as a whole it is in satisfactory shape as regards 
control . 
R. W. Harried and assistants (March): The San Jose scale ap- 
pears to ' be unusually abundant in most sections of the State.
