Default Pear Trees

fruit trees can only produce a given amount of fruit and if too much fruit is left on
the tree after fruit set it saps the tree. in addition, is there any "gummie" on the
trunk? was there any evidence of fire blight or other leaf diseases?
sometimes late frost will kill the flowers. and of course pruning at the wrong time
can knock out flower setting in summer.
