Thesicodling moth is the parent of
the apple -worms, a very unpopular in-
sect. To get a lifie on the habits and
life history of the insect, experts have
constructed "cocooning racks"- of wood
strips so put together as to form rows
of compartments or cells, each ac-
commodating one caterpillar. o'
The rows of cells are covered with
strips of transparent celluloid, through
which the transformations of the cat-
erpillars into pupae and finally moths
can be watched. A record of observa-
tions for each caterpillar is kept by
'the' -help of a reference number.' at i‘th'e
top cf its -compartment. -The moth „is
browish gray, with a wing -spread of -
three -quarters of an inch. At ruf on
the bark of an apple. tree, hardlydistinguishable to the eye. The .Lfe-
male lays her eggs on apples, one here
and another there, and the caterpillars
hatched from them bore into the fruit,
eating it as they grow and defiling it
in e manner unhappily too ganailiar.
In late summer or early fall the full-
grown worms leave the apples and
seek concealment inhales or cracks in
the trees, or under the bark, spinning
tough silken cocoons in which to pass
the winter. Many of them, still resi-
dent in the apples, are carried with
the latter to storage houses, where
they spin their cocoons in boxes,' bar-
rels or bins. In spring they transform
into moths, which fly to the orchard,
thus completing the cycle.
Elderly people can to -day remember
a time when nearly every apple offer-
ed for sale had one or more worm
holes. Usually it was the eaternillar
of the codling moth that was -respons-
ible for the mischief. Nowadays de-
cent apples rarely exhibit such unpleas-
ant imperfections for the reason that
a spray of arsenate of lead applied to
the trees is death to the insect.
