Crosby's Seedlingf. — Two samples of this gooseberry came to hand from 

 A. Reeve, Highland Creek. It is surely a seeding of some good English 

 variety. Size, large to very large, an inch and a quarter to an inch and a half in 

 length. Rib veins, mostly visible. Skin smooth, flesh soft, juicy, very good.

 smith.

 green variety, and the other a medium sized red variety.
