lUOO, and no further applications of any kind were made between 

 the time above mentioned and November 1st, 1906. I did not per- 

 sonally see any of the trees during that same period, but Mr. 

 Dickerson examined them at intervals and recorded as follows : 



July 2d. — Looked over the trees and found them in the follow- 

 ing condition : 



Tree 1 — Mariana Plum. General appearance good, and mak- 

 ing good growth; very few plums on tree; a few of the leaves 

 ^eaten by the rose chafer; very few scale larvse or reeent sets ob- 

 served. 



Tree 2 — Yellow Transparent Apple. General appearance 

 good ; four good apples observed ; leaves in many cases show effects 

 of leaf hopi:w3r; PentUia seen on one of the branches, as well as 

 woolly lice on a few of the knots ; very few scale lan'se or recent 

 sets observed. 



Tkee 3 — Blade Tartarian Cherry. In good condition, without 

 ^ny signs of larvse or recent sets of scale. 



Tree 7 — Champi&ri Peach. Some twigs and small branches 

 throughout the tree dead ; lower branches well loaded with fruit, 

 some of which were "stung ;" scale apparently cleaned out. 



Tree 8 — Grimes' Golden Pippin^ General apjiearanee good ; 

 few apples, mostly in good condition, but some showing work of 

 codling moth and curculio ; apparently little or no live scale ; no 

 crawling larvae or sets observed. 



Tree 15 — Japan Golden Russet Pear. General appearance of 

 tree good ; plenty of fruit on tree and scale apparently cleaned 

 out. 



Tree IG — Japan Golden Russet Pear. In same condition as 

 ^o. 15. 



Tree 17 — Trellised Peach. Pretty well set with fruit, but 

 about every one "stung" at least once and many more than once; 

 live scales apparently very scarce. 



Tree 18 — Vermont Beauty Pear. A little live scale on this tree 

 and most apparent on pears, some of which have at least a dozen 

 sets. There is quite a setting of fruit, some of which also shows 

 signs of curculio. 



Tree 19 — Yermont Beauty Pear. This tree is in just about 

 the same condition as No. 18, but on a couple of small limbs toward 

 the house there is quite a sprinkling of lan'se and recent sets ; the 

 branches must have been missed in spraying. There is rather a
