 Peach, Columbia, Washington, Yellow Egg, Pond. 



Prunes. — Italian, Silver, Agen (French), Hungarian, German, Tragedy. 



Cherries. — Sour varieties : Richmond, Montmorency. Sweet varieties : Tar- 

 tarian, Bing, Napoleon {Royal Ann), Republican, Lambert. 



Apricots. — Moorpark, Blenheim, Royal, Tilton. Apricots habitually blossom 

 very early in the spring; hence the blossoms are often killed by frosts except in 

 very favorable localities. 



Raspberries. — Marlboro, Cuthbert. 



Blackberries. — Eldorado, Lawton, Snyder, Logan (in the milder valleys of 

 Idaho, Oregon, and Washington). 



Dewberry. — Lucretia.

Goosebe rries. — regon, Poorman. 



Strawberries. — Dunlap, Jucunda (in Colorado and Utah), Clark, Superb. 



Grapes. — In the milder portions of district 12, especially in the southern part, 

 some of the Vinifera, or Old World, varieties may be grown, the Sultanina being 

 the favorite one. In some parts of Idaho and Oregon, with winter protection, 

 the more hardy varieties of the Old World grapes have given fairly good results. 

 These include such sorts as the Black Hamburg, Chasselas de Fontainbleau, 

 Flame Tokay, Jura Muscat, Sylvaner, and Zinfandel. American varieties sug- 

 gested for trial planting in this district are Diamond, Niagara, Winchell, Brigh- 

 ton, Delaware, Concord, Isabella, and Worden. 



District 13 



Apples. — Most of the varieties in the list for district 12 occur widely in district 

 13. However, in the Puget Sound region such varieties as Alexander, Tomp- 

 kins King, Mcintosh, Rhode Island Greening, Baldwin, and Northern Spy, to- 

 gether with Gravenstein and Wagoner of the list named for district 12, are rela- 

 tively the most important sorts. Most of the above-named sorts also are grown 

 to a limited extent in other parts of district 13 as well as at the lower altitudes 

 in the eastern part of Oregon. 



Pears. — Bartlett, Howell, Bosc, Anjou, Comice, Winter Nelis, 



Peaches, plums, prunes, apricots, and cherries. — Substantially the same as 

 for district 12. 



Raspberries. — Cuthbert (red), Antwerp (red). Golden Queen (yellow). 



Blackberries. — Eldorado, Snyder, Evergreen, Logan. 



Dewberries. — Lucretia, Gardenia. 



Currants. — Perfection (red), White Imperial. 



Gooseberry. — Oregon. 



Strawberries. — Gold Dollar (early), Marshall, Magoun, Oregon, Clark (for 

 canning). Superb. 



Grapes. — Conditions in western Washington are not favorable for grape grow- 

 ing. In western Oregon the same varieties suggested for district 12 may be 

 grown without winter protection. 



District 14 



Apples. — While there is considerable difference in the adaptability of varieties 

 to the different sections of California, those named in the list for district 12 have 

 a wide range of adaptability and comprise the most important ones grown in 

 district 14, aside from the Yellow Bellflower and Yellow Newtown, which are 

 gro^vn largely in the Pajaro Valley, and the Gravenstein, which is produced in 

 large quantities about Sebastopol, in Sonoma County. These three varieties 

 make up a large proportion of the commercial apple industry of California.
