AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT STATION. V.11 



The abbreviations used in describing the size*, form, color, etc., 

 of the various classes of fruits are fully explained at the head of 

 each list. Take for example the Alexander apple. We see that 

 this is a large striped apple of roundish-conical form and moderately 

 good quality, useful for cooking and market early in autumn. 



*A few varieties of apples usually described as large, are as grown in this state, 

 of only medium size— e. g. Baldwin, Golden Sweet, Ilubbardstou, Porter.
