74 MAINE AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT STATION. 



Golden Reinette, 20 — Vigorous, upright, spreading, productive, 

 (one and one-half bushels fruit). Branches freely with tendency 

 to form crotches. Fruit small, golden, washed and splashed 

 with carmine. Flesh yellowish, crisp, mildly acid. A promis- 

 ing autumn variety. September to December. (This fruit does 

 not correspond to Budd's description of Golden Reinette and 

 is probably wrongly named.) 



Grandmother (469), 50 — Vigorous, upright, hardy. Growth 

 two feet. But one fruit produced in 1896. Resembles Duchess. 

 Season winter. 



Green Crimean {399), 48 — Vigorous, spreading and productive. 

 Branches freely. Growth one foot. First fruited in 1896. 

 Fruit large, smooth, conical; green, changing to yellow at 

 maturity. A good autumn variety. 



Green Sweet, 37 — Wrongly named. A small sour winter fruit 

 of no value. 



Hibernal {378), 47 — Of low spreading habit, moderately vig- 

 orous. Productive. Growth one foot. First fruited in 1894, 

 (one-half bushel in 1896). Drops badly at maturity. Good for 

 cooking. Season October and November. 



Konrsk Anis, 13 — Set in 1895. Hardy. Moderately vigor- 

 ous. Growth one foot. 



Konrsk Reinette, 30 — Vigorous, sturdy in habit with few stout 

 branches. Large dark foliage. Growth one and one-half feet. 

 Productive. A promising variety. This variety we have as 

 20 M. The latter is by Mr. Budd, called "Sweet Longfield." 



Large Anis (413 Dept.), 54 — Moderately vigorous, spreading 

 branches. First fruited in 1896 (one-fourth bushel). Growth 

 one and one-half feet. Fruit resembles Rhode Island Greening. 



Lead Apple (3 M, 277), 23 and 41 — 23, vigorous, spreading; 

 branches leave the trunk nearly at right angles, so few crotches 

 are formed. Growth one and one-half feet. Productive (one and 

 one-half bushels in 1896). The variety which we have under the 

 above name is apparently of the Aport family and is not the true 

 Lead Apple as described by Budd. 41, (277), very vigorous, 

 upright, compact, few branches, has a tendency to form crotches. 

 Growth one and one-half feet. No fruit. It is possible that 

 when this comes into bearing we shall find that we have the true 

 Lead Apple, although in Bulletin No. 31, Iowa Agricultural
