FRUIT-TREE LEAF-ROLLER (Cacoecia argyrospila Walker) 
New York C. R. Crosby and assistants: In Orleans County, leaf -rollers 
have "begun to.jpu.pate. They are very plentiful throughout 
the county, and are doing considerable damage in some orchards, 
Sa Monroe County this insect is common and is doing considerable 
injury. Leaf -rollers are about all hatched, and are rather 
abundant throughout the entire county. They "are abundant on 
apples in many orchards. Well-sprayed orchards do not have 
as many as those not so well taken care of. It begins to appear 
that more aggressive measures may be necessary next year. 
This insect is commonly found in Wyoming County in neglected 
and unsprayed orchards. In Wayne County it is prevalent over 
the whole county, and abundant where no pre-blossom spray'^was 
applied. In most orchards in Ontario County this insect 
can be found, but it is not bad where the spraying has been 
good. In Chautauqua County, it is frequently found but is not 
abundant enough to be destructive. It is very general in 
distribution and causing considerable damage in Oswego County. 
It is found generally in G-enesee County, damage being from 1 to 
10 per cent. In Dutchess County, it is rather prevalent, 
especially in the orchards which received no pre-blossom spray; 
2 per cent injury, generally distributed. 
Missouri L, Haseman (June 5): This insect is not abundant in any one 
section, though it is scattered over the State and more or 
less serious where found. 
APPLE AM) THORN SKELETONIZER ( Hemerophila par iana Clerck) 
Massachusetts A. I. Bourne (June 23): A few specimens of this pest were 
sent in on June 1^, from the town of Sheffield. At the time 
of arrival one of the specimens had pupated. 
Connecticut J. A. fetfcer (June 22): The first brood has matured in Mansfield^ 
and is more abundant than in an average year. 
F. A. Bartlett (June 23): Reported from Fairfield, Abundance 
apparently more than a year ago, and less than in 1922. 
New York C. R. Crosby and assistants: Larvae are now working in small 
numbers on some of the trees. It is expected that the calyx 
application will clean up this pest in Dutchess County. In 
several parts of Rockland County this pest was observed in 
small numbers the past week. 
M. D, Leonard (JLpril 15) : Roy Latham reports that moths 
were out in large numbers on this date. A few were seen the 
last few days of March at Orient, Suffolk County. They were 
found to winter over in buildings and under loose bark. (June 22) 
The Albany County agent, reports considerable skeletonizing 
at present at Ravena.
