Synopsis

Excerpt from Varieties of Apples

Fruit was gathered, and a record made of four hundred and seven (407) varieties. A few of the earliest kinds were missed, owing to the pressure of other labors and the propensity of visitors, etc., to help themselves.

Taken together, the apples were smoother and better than they have been in any preceding year. Though the quantity upon each tree was usually small, the total amount was greater than heretofore in any one year. The trees, too, with one exception, to be hereafter noticed, are apparently in better condition than for several years back.

Whether any one kind not usually cultivated will prove better than those com mouly grown in the vicinity cannot yet be determined; but this year's fruiting gave much more promise than heretofore of several valuable new kinds.
