size, oval, very regular in shape, rather broadest at the base, 

 Eye sunk in an even hollow. Stalk short, slender, deeply 

 planted. Skin deep yellow, freckled with numerous dark spots 

 Flesh pale yellow, crisp, tender, with a fine rich aromatic fla- 

 vour. The tree grows freely, and forms an upright head. 



38. FALL HARVEY. Man. Ken. 



A fine large Fall fruit from Essex co., Mass., very highly es- 

 teemed in that neighbourhood. We do not think it comparable 

 to the Fall pippin, which it a little resembles. 



Fruit large, a little flattened, obscurely ribbed or irregular 

 about the stalk, which is rather slender, an inch long, set in a 

 wide, deep cavity. Calyx closed, small, in a rather shallow 

 basin. Skin pale straw yellow, with a few scattered dots. Flesh 

 white, juicy, crisp, with a rich, good flavour. October and No- 

 vember. 



39. FALL PIPPIN. Coxe. Floy. 



The Fall Pippin is, we think, decidedly an American variety, 

 Thompson and Lindley to the contrary, notwithstanding. It is, 

 very probably, a seedling raised in this country, from the White 

 Spanish Reinetle, or the Holland pippin, both of which it so 

 much resembles, and from which it, in fact, differs most strongly 

 in the season of maturity. The Fall Pippin is a noble fruit, and 

 is considered the first of Autumn apples in the middle states, 

 where its beauty, large size, and its delicious flavour for the table 

 or for cooking, render it very popular. 



Fruit very large, roundish, generally a little flattened, pretty 

 regular, sometimes with obscure ribs at the eye. Stalk rather 

 long, three-fourths of an inch, projecting considerably beyond 

 the fruit, (which distinguishes it from the Holland Pippin,) set in a 

 rather small, shallow, round cavity. Calyx not very large, 

 rather deeply sunk in a round, narrow cavity. Skin smooth, 

 yellowish-green, becoming a fine yellow, with often a tinge of 

 brownish blush, on one side, and with a few scattered dots. 

 Flesh white, very tender and mellow with a rich, aromatic fla- 

 vour. October to December. 



There are several spurious sorts the true one is always 

 rather flattened, with a projecting stalk. (See Holland Pippin.)
