New York E. P. Felt. "Strawberry weevil adults were observed in small num- 
bers in Saratoga County on May 18." 
C. R. Crosby and assistants report that they were quite numerous and 
doing considerable damage in Ulster County by April 27. In one 
planting about 10 per cent of the blossoms had been already cut off. 
By May 7 it was noticeable that serious injury was confined to the 
variety William Belts; varieties Sample, Schofield, and Bubach are 
only slightly injured. Slight damage was also reported from Orleans 
County, while a more serious outbreak developed in Columbia County; 
here one dusting was applied on April 22 and another on April 30. 
The two treatments held the pest in check ffom the report received 
on May 7; here again, the William Belts variety seems to be the 
worst infested.
