286 Bulletin 262. number of any county in the State. In lyoo, this number was reduced to 924,086, which was still considerable above that of any other county in New York. A more recent census would undoubtedly show still greater reduction in the number of trees. With respect to yields for the year 1889, Niagara ranked second, producing 623.204 bushels of apples, and was exceeded only by Wayne County. For the year 1899, Niagara produced 1,421,796 bushels and still ranked second, being exceeded only by Monroe with an excess of 14,595 bushels.

Fig. 29.—An old story: An example of an orchard in which the trees are crowding each other and are now " fighting it out " Area in apples.— The entire area of the county comprises 522 square miles, or 334,080 acres, with an average of 46 acres in apples to the square mile. Furthermore, since there are 924,086 trees in the county, and since the average number of trees per acre is 38.2 it follows that there are about 24,190 acres in apples. This means that 7.2 per cent of the area of the county is planted to apple orchards. About three- fourths of the orchards are in the northern half of the county. More complete surveys were made in the lake-shore districts than elsewhere, although representative districts of the entire county were surveyed.
