. Annual report of the New York State College of Agriculture at Cornell University and the Agricultural Experiment Station. New York State College of Agriculture; Cornell University. Agricultural Experiment Station; Agriculture -- New York (State). Insects Injurious to the Fruit of the Apple 1909 the fact that no tissue is removed, the juice merely being sucked out, causing a smooth depression in the fruit (Fig. 115). The feeding and egg-laying p u n c- tures of the cur- culio cause char- acteristic scars, as shown in Figure 116. Apliis injury is characterized by a puckering about the blow end of the fruit, which does not appear in typi- cal redbug injury. Means of control. — If onlv the true redbug of the apple is present in the orchard, it can be effectually con- trolled by a thor- ough application of " black leaf in " ^^^' ^^^'— ^y^ph of apple redbug feeding on a young apple tobacco extract. It should be mixed in the proportion of i pint to 100 gallons of water, and 4 or 5 pounds of soap should be added to the mixtiire in order to make it stick and spread bet- ter. This spray should be applied about the time the blossoms show pink, in order to kill the nymphs while they are still yoimg. If, however^ as is usually the case, the false redbug is also present, the application should be repeated just after the blossoms fall.
