Fig. 8.—An embryo pitch seam caused by the Douglas fir pitch moth only a few years after emergence of moth : A, Pitch blister which the larvae caused before emerging; H, a break in the tissues by wind strain on account of the defect; C, break filling with pitch ; D, inclosed pitch from pitch tube which caused imperfect heal- ing; E, parts of pitch tube which covered the larvse, still part of the surface covering. Reduced. (Original.) made in a stand of Douglas fir about 30 years old, where conditions were most favorable for the operation of all the latter causes. This tally demonstrated that in this area of about 30 acres the sesiid wounds averaged, up to 15 feet from the ground, a little over 96 per cent, while the wounds from all other causes combined represented less than 4 per cent.
