ATTACKING THE FRUIT. 



The plum curculio, No. 94, affects the fruit to an alarming 

 extent in many sections, and, since the cherries do not drop 

 from the trees as the plums do, from the injuries caused by 

 this insect, the extent of its depredations is not easily ascer- 

 tained. It is not unusual to find a considerable proportion 

 of the ripe cherries in the markets containing the larva of 

 this curculio, nearly full grown.
