From the above table several interesting facts may be deduced. 



(1) Of the twenty-nine thousand nine hundred and Qfty-eight apples 

 produced on the eighty-four trees less than one (.6-|-) per cent was wormy 

 July 20, and but little more than five per cent was infested when the fruit 

 was gathered. The injury varied from nothing on certain sprayed trees to 

 sixty per cent on one not sprayed. 



(2) The five check trees which were not sprayed produced two thousand 

 four hundred and thirteen apples, of which twenty-three per cent were 

 wormy. 



(3) Two trees received only the first and second applications. They 

 produced seven hundred and eighty-five apples, of which twenty per cent 

 were injured by the apple worm.
