28 TRANSACTIONS OF THE ILLINOIS 



Michael Henry Pippin. — Daggy — I move to strike out the 

 recommendation for market in Central Illinois, and to insert " top 

 grafted." 



Dunlap — It bears well with me root-grafted. Lost. 



Roman Stem. — Wier — I move to recommend it for market 

 North. 



Galusha — It is a great bearer, very hardy and needs to be more 

 known. It was the only one giving a good crop of fruit this 

 season. 



Nelson — It is one of the best trees with us. Bears well. Car- 

 ried. 



Mann, (of Normal) — I move it be added in Centre, for all pur- 

 poses. 



Huggins — It is of no profit, hard, good but small. 



McLain — It is not showy, very prolific, good keeper and popular. 

 Lost. 



Grimes' Golden. — Cochran — (of Chicago) — I move to add for 

 trial in the North. 



Galusha — I had it given me by a gentleman from Lee County, 

 Iowa. 



Minkler — I am opposed to recommending an apple not yet tried 

 in the State. Carried. 



Red Winter Pearmain. — Pearson, (of Alton) — I move to add 

 for family use South. 



Long — It is not profitable. It is a dry apple and tree blights. 



Flagg — I think Dr. Hull's apple is Hoop's. 



Pearson — Messrs. Lyon & Randolph have the apple I mean. 

 It is also called Lady Finger. 



Hilliard — There are a great many apples but I would like to prune 

 the list down to 10 or 15 kinds. 



Redfield — It is a very valuable family apple. Lost. 



Large Striped Pearmain. — Colman, (of St. Louis) — It is 

 grown very largely in the western part of Missouri.

 succeeds well but drops early with us.
