£PFLE IIaG-GCT ( P.hagol e tis ipomonella 7alsh) 
A. I. Boiirne (September 2o) : The railroad -orm has been generally 
abundant. It has proven to be fully as abundrnt as during 192o, 
but not so bad as the previous yerr. Early vrrieties -ere found 
to be pretty badly riddled by the maggots. T/'ealthies, -.-here pro- 
perly sprayed', have apparently come through successfully, and as 
far as v/e can tell at present, the late or main season varieties 
are not seriously affected. (September 29): Follo-.lng up the 
report I sent you a fev; days ago, I v.-ould say that later data com- 
ing in during the last tv/o or three days, -particu.larly from 
the eastern part of the State, lead us to believe that injury 
by the apple .iiaggot is more serious than v/as at first beliBvod. 
Some ::cInto?h -Thich axe being harvested sho-v considerable presence 
of the maggots. 
xhilip 3-ar:ran (September 2U) : The apple 'maggot is apparently more 
alx^ndant' than \i.sual on apples in JTe-.T Haven County. 
I. F. Felt (September 2k): The apple maggot is becoming <luite in- 
jurious to prunes in the J.bany section. It has been troublesome 
for •. several . year s a^id this season 100 per cent of the fruit Tras 
infested in some orchards. 
R. G-. levering (September 17): '^<^ have a tree of good apples 
that -.76 call Cabin apples that '.-Ore harvested three or more v/eeks 
ago. ~3 put them in the cellar to get mello-.7, and I thisjil: some- 
thiijg liice 75 P^^ cent of them v^ere infested Tith mcgigots. Te 
have found them in several other kinds of apples, including Grimes 
golden and 'le.gnum bonum, but not to such an extent as in the Cabin 
ap-tiles. I think that wo have nevci- been bothered 7?ith this pest 
until this year . 
LSAJHOPHIHS (Jassidae) 
A. I. 3oui-ne (September 26): "'e have found, particularly in the 
eastern part of the State, an abrandance of late leafhoppers on

causing in some cases considerable annoyance to the pickers.
