Note.— The qiu'stion of adaptiitioii of varieties is one so largely depciulent upon 1 cal 

 conduions of soil, elevation and aspect, that a geii'jral list will not answer fully the wants 

 of every planter, and .it best can only be a general guide in the selection of varieties. « 



For more eiieclfic directions, the following rules and Lsts are lurnished by the committee 

 chosen for this purpose: 



1. Locations comparatively elevated and well drained, with a cool northern aspect a' d line 

 gravelly clay soil, not very rich, may e.\lend the general list named above to an indefinite 

 e.vtent, with fair prospect of success in southern and eastern districts of the state. But fo • 

 warm, sheltered loations and rich soils, which i:;ducc a great growth, no section of our 

 state can safely i)lant other ih in those varieties known to be istreme'y hardy. 



2. The bi'stguidc in the selection of varieties is for each to plant largely of .«uch varie ies 

 as arc fouud successful in locations similar to that eich must plant upon. For all unfavor- 

 able locitions, and extreme northern districts, only the most hardy, well tried apples of the 

 Russian or Siberian type sh )U d be chosen for general plantii.g. 



3. In the e.\treme northern districts, only the crown of the hills should be chosen fjtr the 

 orchard, with a fi.m soil and jiorous subsoil, and if these materials a e wanting iiatiiraliy, 

 they should be supi)iied artiticially.
