in the engraving). The flesh is a pale orange (lemon), very thick 

 upon the blossom end, and with much green in the region of the 

 navel. Only a small nimiber of seeds was matured. 



R. ''Golden Bronze-Delicious" (23/3). Only two small fruits 

 of this cross were secured, and are shown at 10 and 11, Plate XX. 

 They were of a dull ("dirty") bronze upon a pea-green back- 

 ground, while in shape they resembled the mother, with the flesh 

 very thick and fine-grained, and a rich orange with a thin gi'een 

 layer beneath the skin. The section of the fruit gives many de- 

 tails of the interior. 



S. ''Marhleliead-Warren" (2V")- N*^ mature fruits were se- 

 cured from this cross. 



T. "Dunlaps Marrow-]]' inter Croohiccl'" (25/18). The four 

 small fruits of this cross were all broad oval, and orange, striped 

 with a lighter shade of orano-e, with the thick flesh of the same 

 <2olor and a broad seed cavity, nearly free from contents, the seeds 

 being very long, and possibly all without vital embryos. 



U. '']Varted IIuhhard-Dnnlaps Marrow" (20/25). The five 

 fruits secured were all dark (irange, with green stripes, and of the 

 "ilubbard" shape. The flesh was thick, pale green near the out- 

 side, but orange further toward the center. Seeds were abundant. 



V. '']Yarted lluhhard-Esscx Ilyhrid" (20/28). Four oval- 

 flattish fruits were obtained, all of which were pale green, with an 

 inclination to develop cream stripes. The thick, firm flesh was 

 green for a half inch from outside and then light orange inside to 

 the seed cavit.v, giving a particularly attractive interior, made some- 

 what irregadar by the presence of the navel, that, with one excep- 

 tion, was large and showed a peculiar projection nearly an inch 

 long. 



W. "Canada Croohicd--Huhhard" (27/1). This hybrid did 

 better tliau many others upon the poor land and developed its 

 large, dark green fruits quite early in the season. Two specimens 

 are shown at in Plate XXL, where it is seen that the shape is 

 ovate, indistinctly ribbed with a slender stem of the ''Crookneck" 

 type. The flesh is uniformly light orange and thin, giving a large 

 cavity, in which but few seeds were developed. The seeds, only a 

 few being plump, are larger than the "Kubliard," and gTay and 

 dark-riumied, like the "Crookneck." 



X. ''Faxon-Boston Marrow" (30/2). The two oval-flat fruits 

 from this cross were snuall, pea-green and orange-blotched, the 

 green making up the narrow stripes. The flesh was thin and 

 orange colored. There was not enough ground for an ex]U"ession of 

 an opinion as to the merits of the combination.
