 of much value." Good for market and cooking. (See

Eemarks. — Brought to Cincinnati Horticultural Society 

 by Lewis Sanders, of Kentucky. It does not resemble 

 the Maiden's Blush, as some have said, but is one of the 

 very best Summer fruits. It is rather a good bearer, 

 grows well, and is a choice, fair fruit. It is a better apple 

 than the Early Eose, but not quite so early. One of the 

 very best. Fine for cooking. " Fine Southern apple." — 

 Trans. Ohio Pom. Society. (See Appendix, 16.)
