infested oranges in our breeding
cages. At the last meeting Of the
board was able to report definitely
that we had reared the flies and rec
commended that we notify the Califor-

officially before this matter appeared
through the newspapers. This has
been done and | expect to receive an
answer from California by the next

From my observations may state
that the Mandarin orange. lime aud
/ the common Seeding orange appear
to be attacked quite severely, where
as the navel orange is only slightly
attacked. have also failed to flnd
any other fruits attacked by the
pest, and further observations wiz

food of this pest as reported by writ

years ago he submitted affected
oranges to the United States Expert

the affected part has close resem-
