APPLE LiAG-GOT ( Rhagoleti s pomonella Walsh) 
C. 3* Crosby and assistants (July): Adults of the 
apple maggot began emergence in the southeastern part 
of the State during the last week in June and the first 
week in July* Emergence apparently reached its peak in 
this part of the State by the middle of the month, though 
it was generally heavy throughout the third week of 
July. (abstract J,A«H. ) 
BUFFALO TREEHDPPER ( Ceresa bubalus Fab,) 
W» E. Field (July 18): Trees injured in two uncultivated 
orchards in Onondaga County. 
A, B* Burrell (July 23): Adults of the Buffalo treehopper 
were first observed July 20 in Clinton County* This insect 
does economic injury in this territory to young apple trees 
in sod, and especially to those in alfalfa sod. Attempts

Chillicothe have a heavy infestation with severe damage. 
Previous damage in- Ohio had been confined to Delaware 
County where the insect has been present for a number of

orchards but much less than a few years ago in Wayne 
County. (July 16): The cranberry root worm beetle caused 
less damage on apples than usual this year in Wayne County. 
I te work was found on the foliage of several weeds, as 
well as apple and cherry foliage. Only a few apples were 
found which had been attacked,

Kt, E, Field (July 18): Not causing much trouble in Onon-

E» W. Mendcnhall (July 18): The round-headed apple tree 
borer is quite bad in some of the commercial orchards in
