Extract

During the early summer months of 1927, 1928 and 1929, several fruit growers in the Salmon Arm district of British Columbia noticed severe injury to the small developing fruits of their pear trees. By the end of June as high as 80 per cent. of the small pears had fallen from some of the trees, and the majority of those remaining were deformed and unmarketable at harvesting time.
