This was reduced in 1927 to 25 per cent.; but the seriousness of plum brown-rot as an annual menace to the plum crop is well expressed by its average annual fruit intensity index of per cent. Leaf spotting of plums appears in our records only for the years 1922, 1923, and 1924. In the first of these years its prevalence among the plum trees examined was per cent.; in 1923 it was 100 per cent.; and in 1924 it fell slightly to per cent. Its average annual prevalence, as indicated by these three indexes, is per cent.
