WHAT TO PLAXT. 



The best soil for it is a light, Avarm loam, with porous 

 subsoil, and oven then it will not always succeed- 



POTT'S SEEDLING. See Standards. 



PRINCE ALKKRT (LANE'S). K. Oct. to Jan. Large, 

 handsome fruit, pale green, streaked bright red ; a very 

 firm apple. It has only come to the front rank during the 

 last few years, having been much too long kept in 

 obscurity. One of the very best to grow for profit, being 

 a fitting companion to Stirling Castle, which variety it 

 succeeds. 



STIRLING CASTLE. K. Sept. Large, round, and some- 

 what flat, good quality, and immense and certain bearer. 

 One of the very best apples to give a return quickly, and 

 one that does well on almost all soils. 



WORCESTER PEARMAIX. See Standards. 



Supplementary List. 



The above may be supplemented by the following 

 varieties, many of which are scarcely second to the fore- 

 going, and indeed two or thi-ee of the newer varieties be- 

 low enumerated are likely to prove more valuable than 

 some of the foregoing. 



Alfriston, Baumann's Red Winter Reinette, Bismarck, 

 Col. Vaughan, Golden Spire, Loddington, Lady Sudeley, 

 Mank's Codlin, Northern Dumpling, Peasgood's Nonsuch, 

 Professor, Ross Nonpareil, The Queen. Yorkshire Beauty. 



Standard Pears. 



BEURKE Bosc, OR CALEBASSE. Oct. to Nov. Large, 

 pyriform ; skin, pale brown. A very rich melting pear, 

 grown largely for market. 



BEDRRE CAPIAUMONT. Oct. Medium, pyriform, fair 

 quality, and prolific bearing ; very hardy.
