New York C* 3* Crosby and assistants: In the first week in August an 
unusually large infestation '-was reported from the eastern 
part of the State in Columbia .and Dutchess Counties. Where

be sustained. 
Indiana J„ J„ Davis (September 24): The apple maggot was reported 
doing considerable damage to apple in an orchard at Goshen. 
Michigan R c . H„ Pcttii (September 1): I received yesterday a quantity 
of adult flies of the apple maggot. This material came from 
Siockbridge, and samples of apples from this orchard show 
the presence of the apple maggot in excessive numbers, even 
Spies having been attacked. The owner of the orchard reports 
that the apples have received six arsenical sprays, the first 
three having been combination sprays of lime-sulphur and 
arsenate of lead and the last three, beginning the first of 
July, were sprays of arsenate of lead and molasses without 
lime- sulphur

Georgia 0. I. Snapp (September 15)' The San Jose scale has increased 
very rapidly in Georgia poach orchards during the summer . 
Illinois W, P. Flint (September 19): The dry, hoi? weather of the summer 
has been particularly favorable to this insect and orchards 
that -ore not carefully sprayed last inter are nc-' showing 
a considerable infestation. With at least one generation still 
to appear there will be need of special effort in controlling 
this nose during the comirg winter. 
Missouri L» Haseman (September 22): Through the early summer the scale 
showed no signs of severe incroa.se and this fall we find it still 
far behind normal abundance on unsprayed trees.
