TRio.Mrii HE Gand, H. — -Winters well. On a hard clay knoll fine 

 show for fruit. Leaf and fruit stalks about the same on the average; 

 one-third blossomed out, two-thirds unopened. 



Russell's Advance, H. — Winters splendid. Soil strong clay and 

 light loam. Tall leaf and fruit stalk ; one-ludf blossomed and one- 

 half unopened. A wonderful show for fruit, and green fruits formed 

 as large or larger than any sort on our grounds. We are so pleased 

 with this sort that we are now, late as it is, setting out every plant 

 we have to set. 



Windsor Chief, P. — Hardy as a burr oak, and hence winters 

 splendidly. On strong rich loam and poorisli gravel showing a mass 

 of fruit buds. Tall leaf stalk, short to medium fruit stems, and well 

 protected by the mass of foliage ; not more than one-fifth blossomed 

 out. One of the safest. 



CHAMriON, P. — On same plot, close to the last, similar as to leaf 

 and fruit stalk ; though fruit stems taller and more fully blossomed 

 out. 



Cinderella, H. — Winters splendidly. Tall leaf and fruit stalk ; 

 half blossomed out. We have no sort on our place that has a greater 

 show for fruit, and that we are more pleased with, judging from pre- 

 sent prospects, hence are making another large setting of them. We 

 have it on sand, gravel and clay loam, and it is equally fine on all. 

 Part of the blossoms are well protected by leaves.

 show for fruit ; largest share blossomed.
