EXPERIMENT STATION REPORT. 427 



"IjVaiity- Fortune" (8/53) gave fine, liigli-coloreJ (red), uni- 

 form fruits. 



'•l-5rig-lit and Early-Nolt's Earliest" (14/94). Tlu> fruits were 

 uuiforni upon all the plants, but a trifle too small for iield culture. 



"Cumberland-Dandy Dwarf" (28/158). The foliage of these 

 plajits was of the yellow type, and strengthened the oi)inion that it 

 is not as good as the ordinary green kind. 



^'Earliana- Jewel" (3.'3/G6). This proved undesirable because 

 of undersized fruits that cracked. 



"Giant-Pondero'^a" (50/103). Plere the plants and fruits were 

 all of the same typo, but the latter were too large and irregular. 



"Giant-Globe" (54/194) pro.duced a large number of large 

 fruits, but late in the season. 



"King Humbert-Fortune" (04/53). These plants, while uni- 

 form in all respects, showed too nuicli of the ''Humbert" blood to 

 be of much value. 



"King Humbert-Giant Climbing" (04/57). In itself, not 

 Avortliy of culture. 



"King Humbert-Ponderosa" (04/103). Very productive, but 

 the fruits were long and flabby. 



''King Humbert-Lemon Blush" (04/147). Undesirable, but 

 may be of value as a breeder. 



"Mag-nus-CWmson Ctishion" (75/20). A fine set of plants, 

 uniform in all respects. This meritorious cross is reported else- 

 where. 



"Mag-nus-Earliana" (75/33). This gave uniformity in vine 

 and fruit, the latter being of desirable form and color. 



"Magnus-Dwarf Champion" (75/153). This was a set of the 

 dwarf type of uniform character and excellence;. 



"]\Lagnus-Da7idy Dwarf" (75/158). The green foliage type of 

 plants Avas represented and proved of only fair fruitfulness. 



'•Magnus-Alice Roosevelt" (75/188). This cross, throughout 

 the cuttings, grew uniformly strong plants with "apple-shaped" 

 fruits. 



"Ponderosa-Duke of York" (103/32). The plants were uni- 

 formly large-sized but the fruits lacked desirable qualities. 



"Potato Leaf-Minnesota" (104/87). The fruits were too small
