 not been sufficient data to publish until this year, when a large number of the varie- 

 ties became in a condition to admit of reliable results being obtained. In the fol- 

 lowing table will be found the yields of the different varieties for the past season. 

 A large number of these are cross-bred, and seedling sorts originated by Dr. Wm. 

 Saunders, and this is the first y^r that comparative results have been published of 

 them and the older named varieties. Some of the former are very productive and 

 will probably, in time, take their place among the best varieties that are grown. The 

 yields are, as a rule, from 12 bushes, planted in a row 36 feet long,
