SESSIONAL PAPER No. 16 



111., U.S., in 1895, and for the past five years it has proven one of the most productive 

 sorts. It is said to be a cross between Bubach and Sharpless. It is a pistillate 

 Vcatioty, medium to late in season, of large size : rather pale red, moderately firm, and of 

 medium quality. The points which make it superior to many others are its long fruiting 

 season, the fact that it holds its size well to the end of the season, its good foliage, and 

 its great productiveness. 



In the following table will be found the yields of 14-5 varieties for each of the past 

 three years, and the average yield for the three years. The dates of blooming and the 

 time of ripening are also given with other particulars. During the past season 72 

 varieties were discarded, and these are not included in the table : —
