* The computations for average income were based on a larger number of orchards than were 

 those for average yield, hence the repetition of these headings. 



It is interesting in this connection to note the results as computed for 

 Orleans County (Bull. No. 229), hence tables and comments are printed 

 herewith : 



"Relation of spraying to yields and prices. The first table below 

 shows that the sprayed orchards give a much higher yield and income 

 per acre than the unsprayed. The difference in income is due to the 

 larger yield, larger percentage of the crop barreled and higher price per 

 barrel. It will be seen that those sprayed three times gave 31 per cent 

 larger yield and 51 per cent larger income than those not sprayed.
