THE RAVAGES OF INSECT PESTS.

"Our insect pests have made record
during the past year, both in numbers and
in the extent of their ravages," says
Professor Edison F. Hutchings, the State
entomologist, in his annual report, which
was filed with the governor and council
September 18th. The report says furth-
err, in part: although there was very
marked increase in many species yet in
some the decline, due to parasitic and
fungous influence, has been quite noti-
ceable. This is true as regards the red
bumped and yellow-necked apple cater
pillars; these have been reduced at least
90per cent The mourning cloak cater
piller was so infested with parasites dur
ing the previous summer that hardly any
damage was reported from this pest dur
ing the past season. In some sections of
the State grasshoppers did very extern
sive damage, especially in the grain, corn,
beans, young fruit trees; many pastures
were stripped bare Of the usual fall feed.
The emi-leaf beetle was reported as hav-
ing been found in the southern part of
the State, but no specimens We're sent to
this office. During the past season it
has been found in considerable numbers
at Kittery and York. The San Jose
scale has not reached US yet"
