Red or green blister-like spote appearing in the early Spring on the foliage of the apple and pear ar usually due to the leaf blister mite. This is not an insect, but a small animal, invisible to the unaided 'eye, which attacks standard varieties of apple and pear trees and often inflicts serious damage. the premature fall of both fruit and leaves may result. In such cases a wash or other spray may be necessary. Ordinarily however, the regular or chard spraying is sufficient to control Rarllv.nfAit.Art 'Kmnches of nw uura. A.....

In the caoe of the apple, the eruptions lack the moro brilliant coloring and are fnA -mnvA alnrifp fna .mArfrin nf the leaf. In both cases the spots finally turn brown or black, and if the peat is abundant the leaves become ruptur ed ana wrniKiea. More than 250 varieties of apples are attacked by the mite, injury be ing especially severe on some well -known commercial sorts, such as the Ben Davis, the King Baldwin.
