CHANGED LIVING CONDITIONS
BLAMED FOR TREE BLIGHTS
Insects Not Always Responsible, Federal
Entomologist Tells Experts at
Conference Here.

resultant blight was not due to the
borer, but TO the fact that the trees
which had displayed retarded growth
were on very slight surface soil.
Many reports come TO the attention of
the bureau indicating inroads of the
borer, but investigation has shown the
troubles due to other sources. He told
of reports of twigs falling from trees.
and investigation showed that 1t was
due TO the squirrels cutting them, and
samples OF holly were received with the
leaves perforated, indicating insect at
tack. but study covering period Of
years indicated that the holes were cut
through the leaves by the movement Of
the bush by the wind.
Data Blanks Vital.
Some of the difficulties of making
more thorough investigations Of tree
troubles were blamed on the failure of
tree experts to fill out data blanks sent
them by Government agencies, by DR..
E. p. Felt, retired State entomologist
of New York, who pointed out that
what is needed is 'self-recording, self
returning questionnaire." The prompt
return of these questionnaires. with the
data requested by them. he said, would
be a valuable aid in the study Of tree
troubles.
The conference decided to wind up
its business this afternoon. instead of
tomorrow. and has abandoned its plan
to take a sightseeing tour Of the local
park system this afternoon, as well as
the dinner planned tonight. This after
noon 1t will listen to papers by DR.
