THE COOLING MOTH
Experiments In Their DeStruC'

Last year all the fruit in the college
orchard was destroyed during the
month beginning June 23rd, as means
of checking the ravages OF the Cooling
moth, or apple worm. 1t Is known thai
this insect feeds on the apple. pear and
ounce by preference, and only attacks
the stone fruit when It's favorite food
is Iscarce. 1t was thought that the
destruction of all the fruit in the or
chard of whatever kind, would result
In the starvation of the insects and
thus overcome the most serious pest
with which thelfruit grower has to con
tend.
OF course it was understood that the
danger OF contagion from near by or
| chards was sucn that even should the
desired result be secured the orchard
would be infested again sooner or lart-
err. To be entirely successful, all the
fruit in the valley should have been des,
troyed and the greatest precautions
| taken against the Introduction OF the
pest thereafter.
Careful observations, and comparis-
on with other orchards, indicate the
good effects of the sacrifice of last
years crop. During)the second week
| IN June the moths in near by orchards
| on the 10th inst. all the apple and pear
| trees in the college orchard were band
ed about the trunks, to catch the
worms as they assembled the trees.
On the 10th inst, the bands we're ex-
amined and only twelve worms were
found on 600 trees. Previous to this
time the apples and pears were thin
ned and directions were given to be on
the lookout for wormy fruits. Altt ongh
many varieties set heavy crop only
eight wormy fruits were found. The
fruit at this time seems to be entirely
free of worms-the number being so
small as to escape observation.
In an orchard of about the same age
as ours several varieties of apples nave
as much as 10 per cent of the fruit
wormy at this time, ~hile other va
rieties are entirely sound. Probably
not five per cent of the fruit in the en-
tire orchard is infested.
In another orchard, located about q
mile from the college farm, the early
apples are quite badly infested with
Cooling moth. This orchard is two
years older than our. Neither of these
orchards has been sprayed. In an old
commercial orchard, three miles from
the college, which was sprayed three
years in succession previous to last
year, the aumb Der OF worms found thus
per tree.
While much more danger is to be
apprehended from the later broods,
the facts above noted indicate favor
able results from the destruction of the
crop last year. The practical benefit
to be derived would depend upon the
number of years of exemption from in
of crop, and upon the universally OF
the practice.
