In our table we must drop the naming of the season, 

 inasmuch as the one who made up the Am. Pom. Soci- 

 ety's transactions in 1873, undertook to control them as 

 ripening at a high latitude, rather than take an average 

 center of the United States. 



The Origin Am, American ; F, Foreign, we give in 

 column, and in our names of varieties of latitudes will 

 try to keep in mind record of the period those counted as 

 very early, early, medium, late and very late. 



We make what we think is a select list of varieties, and 

 yet, we, in naming twenty varieties for one man's culture, 

 may omit others that with care and attention would prove 

 equally good.
