The two check trees produced on an average nearly as many 

 apples as those in plot 2 and yet there were only 17.41 per cent of

 cent damaged by leaf roller. A very marked difference in wormy 

 apples is noticeable, the percentage for the two trees being 56.61 

 and 66.16 with an average of 60.68. The end wormy constituted 

 22.16 and 35.33 per cent, respectively, with an average of 27.77, 

 while the side wormy ran up to 36.31 and 45.36 per cent, the average 

 being 40. 1 7 per cent. There were, however, relatively few ' ' shallow 

 affected apples, these amounting on the two trees to 16.01 and 12.55 

 per cent, respectively, giving an average for the two of 14.53. The 

 marked contrasts are too evident to require further emphasis.
