Moths Almost Exterminated In Rhode Island Campaign
The state pest control drive led by Prof. A E Stone reports a 90 percent drop in grisy and brown tail moths across Rhode Island. With a $10,000 annual appropriation, sustained spraying keeps the pests in check, and while extinction is unlikely, the threat to trees is greatly reduced compared with Massachusetts spending of a million dollars yearly. Elm foliage appears healthy and leaf perforations have diminished in the area.
