HOVEY'S SEEDLING. Very large 

 . roundish-oval, approaching co^ 

 nical ; color deep shining scar- 

 let ; seeds slightly sunk ; firm, 

 rather rich, good. Very large, 

 showy, productive, and hence 

 fine for market. Season me- 

 dium. In some soils at the 

 north, it is liable to be thrown 

 out by frost ; it cannot thrive 

 if allowed to run thickly to- 

 gether, and proves unproduc- 

 tive except when well culti- 

 tivated.

 flesh nearly white, rather acid, of fine flavor. Very pro 

 ductive, early, much cultivated at Cincinnati.
