z84 NAMING AND DESCRIBING FRUITS. 



Prefixes, suffixes, apostrophic terminations, and secondary 

 words, together with words whose significations are expressed 

 in the descriptive columns of the catalogue, are eliminated from 

 the names of fruits, save in a few cases in which they may be 

 needful to insure the identity of a variety and in a few time- 

 honored names. 



The anglicising of foreign names is resorted to only in the 

 interest of brevity or pronounceability. 



In questionable cases, subsidiary words are retained in 

 parentheses.
