230. GRANNIWINKLE. 



" This apple is of moderate size ; in form rather oblong ; 

 the skin a dark red, somewhat rough ; the flesh a dead 

 sweet, very rich, of a yellow colour. The cider produced 

 from this apple resembles a sirup in its taste and consist- 

 ence." '* It is usually mixed with the Harrison for making 

 cider of a superior quality. It ripens in November. It 

 originated in one of the eastern counties of New- Jersey, and 

 obtained its name from a farmer who first cultivated it."
