Abstract
During the summer of 1930 the author made an investigation to determine the actual results of the control work. The results show that the weevil can be controlled on certain sites. The removal of infested tips brings about a marked reduction in the amount of infestation evident during succeeding years. The reduction first becomes noticeable the second or third year after the work is started. In the stands in which treatment has been completed more than enough acceptable stems have been secured on the medium and better sites. On the poorer sites enough acceptable stems are not secured even though the stands are treated.
