KEPORT OF FRUIT COMMITTEE. 



Mr, Hooper, Chairman, reported — Cherries. — Napoleon Bigarreau ; 

 largest on the tables ; of high, rich flavor, but this season frequently 

 imperfect. Kirtland's Transparent ; beautiful, rich, sweet ; medium 

 size. 



From S. S. Jackson. — Black Seedling ; better than the common 

 English Black Heart, though smaller. Red Heart; handsome and 

 good flavor. White Tartarian ; sweet, very prolific, very small ; of 

 hut little value. Yellow Spanish ; not fully ripe ; fine when mature; 

 immensly productive ; is also known under the name of Graffon. 

 Beechwood ; very pleasant and good. Reine Hortense ; similar to 

 early Richmond or Kentish, perhaps the same ; is a very profitable 

 pie cherry. 



From Mr. Sayres. — Another variety of Gooseberry, the Houghton ; 

 more prolific than the one known as Houghton, and equally as 

 good.
