192 Bush-Fruits 



Mote Everbearing (H) . Raised by L. S. Mote, of West Milton, 

 Ohio. An everbearing variety resembling Catawissa. Downing. 



Mrs. Ingersoll (F). One of Dr. Brinckle's seedlings. Yellow. 



Mrs. Wilder (F). A seedling of the Colonel Wilder, similar in 

 color. Named by Dr. Brinckl6. 



Mrs. Wood (H). Originated with Mrs. Reuben Wood, near Cleve- 

 land, Ohio. 



Muriel (F). A seedling raised from Biggar Seedling by Professor 

 Saunders. 



Muskberry. Sent out by John Lewis Childs of Floral Park, N. Y. 

 An extremely rank grower, spreading badly from the roots and be- 

 coming a nuisance. Fruit of good size and attractive but insipid 

 and disagreeable. A musky odor is thrown off by the plants. 



Muskingum (Shaffer's Sister, Melott's Favorite) (H). Originated 

 in the orchard of Mrs. Simeon Ellis, Coshocton county, Ohio, near 

 the Muskingum River. Named and introduced by James Madison, 

 of Chili, Ohio. Similar to Shaffer, but not as tall. 



My Seedling. Mentioned by George J. Kellogg in the Report 

 of the Wisconsin Horticultural Society for 1887, p. 241. 



Naomi (F). Said to have been produced from seed sown by Mrs. 

 Governor Wood, of Rockport, Ohio, about 1850. Introduced by 

 F. R. Elliott. The question of the identity of this variety with 

 the Franconia was investigated by a committee of the Ohio State 

 Horticultural Society in 1868. It was found that the stock sent 

 out from Mrs. Wood's place was badly mixed. She grew seedlings 

 from the Red Antwerp and Franconia, and from the mixture dis- 

 tributed plants. The sort which proved the best, and thus came 

 to survive as the true Naomi, was doubtless the Franconia itself, 

 or a seedling of it, which was so nearly like the parent as to be indis- 

 tinguishable from it. 



Narragansett (F). A seedling of Brinckle's Orange raised by 

 John F. Jolls, of Providence, R. I. 



Nebraska. Mentioned in 1869, as no longer popular. 



Newark. Mentioned as on trial in 1892, at the Oklahoma Ex- 

 periment Station. 



New Everbearing (F). Noticed. Proc. Cincinnati Hort. Soc. 

 1861.
