The principal nursery regions which I have examined in this con- nection are those in the vicinity of Dansville, Geneva, and Cayuga. While the leaf-blight is the financial bane of seed- ling pears, this leaf-spot is uniformly the fungus monopolist of budded stock after the first year. Budded stock of two years or older is often badly injured late in the sum- mer, and occasionally I have found the leaf-spot to a considerable extent upon one-year stock. Al- though well aware of its presence, nurserymen, as a rule, do not consider this sufficiently injurious to warrant their attention, especially as there is greater difficulty in spray- ing the stock of the second year; but many realize that it would be desirable to spray. Some make a practice of spraying the one-year stock early in the season, but those who do this are few, and the fact remains that it suffers less injury than older stock. As to the cause of this apparent immunity, several prominent nurserymen a^ree that with an abundance of room and with the good culture usually given the first year, the plant finds such favor-. 16 r.—Spravcd late ?with Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Cornell University.
