Total Points. 



N.B. — To sum up total of points add maximum of five times the number of 

 varieties for covering the season. 



From the scale of points given, it is easy to score up the value of the sample 

 plate of each variety shown in a collection. The Catalogue value of a variety 

 may be had from the table in the report of the Fruit Growers' Association ; 

 adding together the value of the sample and the catalogue value of the variety 

 we have the total number of points for each variety. These added will give the 

 total value of the collection. 



Since it is important that a collection should cover the season in period of 

 maturity and use, a certain maximum number of points is added to the total 

 for this, say equal to five times the number of varieties. 



For single plates the cards are of little or no service. 



For collections of grapes a similar score card is used, as follows : — 



Score Card for Collection of Grapes. 



Ten Points, as follows: — Flavor, 3; Form of Bunch, i ; Size of Bunch, i^ ; 



Size of Berry, i ^ ; Color, i ; Firmness, yi ; Bloom, ^ ; 



Freedom of Blemish, i.
