Gypsy Moths Ravage
 Valuable Woodlands
Connecticut Experiencing Worse Outbreak in History; State Experts Mobiizing for Defensive Campaign

The worst outbreak of gypsy moths in the history of Connecticut was reported from Granby and Union to State Entomologist w. E. Britton at the Agricultural Experi- ment station at New Haven this week.
 Oaks on about 600 acres of ridge land in two sections of Granby have been completely denuded of foliage. Caterpillars are so abundant that they cannot find food enough in the woodland and many moths will be undersized as a result of semi-star- vation. The second large defoliated acreage is at Union just east of Lake Mashapaug. Oaks, the favorite food of the gypsy moth, comprise most of the trees in the infested areas.
 Guided by J. T. Ashworth, dep- uty in charge of gypsy moth control for the state, who discovered the infestation, station entomologists visited Granby on Thursday. They were astonished by the multitudes of red-brown caterpillars that have now finished eating and are begin ming to mott and transform into the pupae. Bunches of dark-brown, hairless pupae dangled by slim threads from the bark of every tree. At least 2,000 were photographed lodged in the forked branches of one oak.
 Dr. Britton says that the cater pillars hatch early in May from egg clusters laid the previous sea- son. They feed during May and June, and when fully grown, reach length of two or three inches. They are dark gray or brown with tufts of prominent light hairs grow ing from two rows of red and blue tubercles along the back.
 After the caterpillars have eaten their fill they shed their skins, spin few threads and dangle from them as smooth, dark brown pupae. The moths emerge in about two weeks. Females are much larger and light CT in color than the males. Their thick, buff colored bodies are too heavy for flight, although their soft whitiSh wings, marked with tan, have a spread of more than two inches. The males are distinctly red dish brown in body and their wings are marked with deeper shades of brown.
 Egg masses, laid on tree trunks, fences, and on the sides of build ings, are covered by brownish vel vet pile made of hairs. Each female is capable of laying an enormous number of eggs, but so great are the hazards for young caterpillars that normally less than one percent survive to reach maturity
 Although lead arsenate sprays are genMally used to control the cater pillars of the gypsy moth, it is too late for such treatment this season, pr. Britton states. The recommend ed control measure now is to find egg masses in August and the fol- lowing months and to treat them with creosote.
 IF no steps are taken to control gypoy moths, they will spread to other sections, Dr. Britton points out. The danger of an infestation on ridges is that strong wind may
