TABLE 35. SUMMARY or TYPES ON 330 LONG ISLAND FARMS IN 1911 AND 1912 



Since the Green Mountain group is the only one of importance in this 

 region, no comparison of relative merits is made between the types. 

 Because most of the Early Ohio acreage was produced near or at Orient 

 Point, under high fertilization and with ideal moisture conditions, its 

 high average yield must be discounted when compared to that of the 

 Cobbler group. Owing to its high average yield and its white skin, 

 Cobbler has proved to be the best early variety for this section.
