APPLE WORMS Fruit worms are responsible foff considerable losses to apple grower throughout Eastern Canada owing to the .damage they inflict on the devek oping fruit. Investagations carried on by the Entomoligical Branch of the Federal Department of Agricul- ture disclosed no less than nine spec cies of fruit worms which feed on apple foliage and fruit and the ad- ults d-ults of eight other species were taken In apple orchards. The adults of the fruit worms are strong flying moths which are found on the wing during September, October, April and May. They deposit their eggs on the twigs of the apple tree during the month of May. These eggs hatch about the time apple buds are beginning to turn pink. The young larvae feed for the first two week on apple leaves and blossoms and drop to the ground very readily when disturbed, These insects are fully described and their life history recorded ie. Bul- letin No. 17 of the Entomological Branch and obtainable from the Pub- lications Branch of the Department of Agricultural at Ottawa. The methods of control described in this bulletin cover both cultivation and spraying. Parasites are shown to have some value in natural conrol but these have never been abundant enough to appreciably diminish the number of fruit worms. Y.M.C.A.
