 | | The cultivation of the pear extends to the remotest antiquity. |  | | Cultivation.The pear may be readily raised by sowing the pips of ordinary cultivated or of wilding kinds, these forming what are known as free or pear stocks, on which the choicer varieties are grafted for increase. |  | | Pear scab is caused by a parasitic fungus, Fusicladf urn pyrinum, very closely allied and perhaps merely a form of the apple scab fungus, F. dendriticum. |

 | | This important pest of pear reduces the growth and vigor of trees by sucking water and nutrients from trees, by injecting a toxin, and by transmitting the causative agent of "slow pear decline." In addition, the nymphs secrete honeydew upon which a black sooty mold grows. |  | | The adults that have overwintered puncture the tiny pears at the time that petals are falling from the flowers. |  | | This moth is one of the three most destructive pear insects that feed directly on pear. |
