Natal is one of the few countries where apples are grown in which the Codling Moth does not occur. It has been said to do so, but I am informed that these statements are erroneous. Mr. Fuller, the Government Entomologist, has shown that the diseased apples have been attacked by Fruit Flies. Why is this ? Simply because, under the Act referred to, a proclamation (79, 1897) was made prohibiting the introduction of all plants, portions of plants, cuttings, and anything taken off or from apple tree...s in the island of Madeira. Later, all diseased apples were prohibited coming from any region. Under these powers we find that in September 1903 seventy-five cases of Portuguese apples were destroyed ; in September 1904 thirteen baskets of apples from Madeira were immediately reshipped on account of this pest. As a result, the colony is kept free from one of the most insidious apple and pear enemies the grower has to put up with. The same is done in New Zealand, where 2,257 cases of apples were destroyed in 1901.
