Sinopsis

Excerpt from Fourth Report of the Injurious and Other Insects of the State of New York: Made to the Regents of the University Pursuant to Chapter 355 of the Laws of 1883

Now that the winter abode of the hop-aphis has been ascertained to be on plum trees, in the egg state, thereby, to a certain extent, bringing it within our reach (some entomologists are not yet willing to concede that it does not, in part, hibernate in the soil of hop yards), it may with propriety be claimed that the practical outcome of the investigation is very great. But it is to be feared that our worthy Commissioner of Agriculture, who has lent the aid of his department to this investigation, has been over sanguine in his announcement in his report of the present year, that there is now no reason why this pest, which last year damaged the crops to the extent of hundreds of thousands of dollars, should be longer feared by hop-growers.
