832 Report OF THE DEPARTMENT OF ENTOMOLOGY OF THE 
DETAILED RESULTS. 
Apple No. 1.— Forty-two adult females alive, with from 8 to 20 
dead larve under their scales; 18 scales in hibernating stage 
were found under thickest crust, 5 were alive, remainder dead; 
14 other young scales were found alive; also 39 dead larve on 
surface of the crust. 
Apple No. 2.— Five adult females alive; 57 scales in hibernat- 
ing stage alive and 140 dead; 22 young larve just forming 
scales alive; 7 larve dead on side of apple beneath the crust. 
Apple No. 3.— Five adult females alive, with from 1 to 7 and 2 
to 8 living larve under their scales; 13 adult females alive with 
no young; 104 scales in hibernating stage, of which 38 were 
dead; 26 young just forming scale alive. Remaining scales dead. 
Apple No. 4.— Three adult females alive; 14 scales in hibernat- 
ing stage alive; 7 dead; 35 larve just beginning to form scales 
alive; 7 larve dead on side of apple beneath the crust. Remain- 
ing scales dead. 
Apple No. 5.—- Sixteen adult females alive with no young; 6 
adult females dead with no young; 4 adult females dead with 
3 to 13 dead young; 2 adult females alive with 2 to 4 dead young; 
115 nearly mature females alive; 403 scales in hibernating stage 
alive. Remaining scales dead. 
Apple No. 6.— One adult female alive, with no young; 21 adult 
females dead with no young; 1 adult female alive, containing 4 
well-developed embryos; 583 scales in hibernating stage alive. 
Remaining scales dead. 
CONCLUSIONS. 
The checks serve as a basis of comparison with those apples 
treated as described in the various experiments. The conclu- 
sions to be drawn from these statistics are of no value except 
as compared with those gathered from the lots under experi- 
ment, which are reserved for the general summary. Attention, 
however, might be called to Apple 1, Table VII, as showing 
that lime in itself does possess some value as a wash, especially 
in preventing the escape of larvee from beneath the mother scale 
and apparently in suffocating immature scales. The treatment
