VI. CHERRIES: LUTOYKA AND BRUS- 

 SELER BRAUK* 



S. A. Beach. 



In 1895 this Station recommended a new cherry for trial as a 

 late variety for home and market use and distributed buds under 

 the name Lutovka to persons who applied for them. 



The fruit did not answer to the descriptions of Lutovka pub- 

 lished by Prof. Buddf, Ames, Iowa, by whom the variety was 

 introduced into this country. 



Specimens of the fruit were sent to Prof. Budd, who pronounced 

 them true Lutovka. The stock had been obtained from John 

 Wragg, a nurseryman at Waukee, Iowa. Later, trees of several 

 varieties of European cherries which Prof. Budd had imported 

 were obtained from him, and among them were the Lutovka and 

 the Brusseler Braun. When these fruited it was discovered that 

 the variety which had previously been obtained from Mr. Wragg 

 under the name Lutovka was not like the Lutovka which Prof. 

 Budd sent us, but was identical with the Brusseler Braun. It 

 answered to the published descriptions of Brusseler BraunJ and 

 was found to be identical with that variety as grown at the Michi- 

 gan Agricultural College and the Central Experimental Farm, 

 Ottawa, Canada. 



The object of this notice is to announce to those who have re- 

 ceived cherry buds from this Station under the name Lutovka that
