Maine. F. H. Lathrop (June 22): Emergence of -adults from hibernation was 
later and extended over a longer period than last year at Monmouth, 
Kennebec County. Apparently tho numbers of adults in the apple trees 
have reached a peak. Egg scars on young apples began to appear dur- 
ing the first 10 days in June. 
Massachusetts. A. L. Bourne (June 2^): The rather cool nights, partic- 
ularly late in May and early in June, somewhat retarded the activity 
of the plum curculio. 
Connecticut. P. Garnan (June 20): Appeared to do damage in New Haven 
County later than usual, owing to cold weather earlier in the month. 
New. Jersey. H. W. Allen (June): In rather extensive collections of June 
drop peaches, made in Burlington County, first-generation -rrubs 
appear to be unusually abundant, 
Delaware. L. A. Stearns (June 22): Overwintered adults taken in 
unusually large numbers by jarring weekly from April 6 to date. 
Mature first-brood grubs were leaving dropped peaches- in greatest 
abundance the last week in May.

10 days earlier than usual in the vicinity of Blacksburg, in south-
