Another orchard yielded 87, 371, 69, and 133 per cent of normal. Several orchards were constantly low in yield; for example, one operator reported yields that were 35, 60, 41, and 48 per cent of normal. On the other hand, one small orchard had yields of 170, 165, 360, and 199 per cent. The lowest yield reported for any one year was 19 per cent of normal and the highest 371 per cent.

No doubt this variation in yield is an important factor in account- ing for variations in spray practices on the same farm in different years and between individual farms in the same year. Naturally, the operator with a prospective large crop can afford to spend more material and labor per tree. The cost per bushel of an additional spray would be in-.
