Yellow Newtown PippDf. 



This variety is extensively grown ; West it becomes large ; keeps 

 "well. Trees, though slender growth, good bearers and apparently 

 perfectly at home in rich limestone soils. Tliat there are two New- 

 town Pippins, we do not question ; see '* Ne\%'town Pippin •/'but we 

 have the past year supposed there might be three, but whether the 

 distinction is without a difference we are yet unprepared to decide. 

 We give here two figures, and descriptions, of which the latter New- 

 town Pippin of Lewis Sanders. Esq.. mav possiblv prove identical 

 with Y. N. P.
