Eemarks. — A very highly flavored apple; none more 

 so. One of the finest dessert fruits in December, but must 

 not be too ripe. The tree grows compactly, and is not an 

 early bearer. This fruit should command double price, 

 otherwise it is not profitable ; and it generally does. A 

 sure bearer and profitable ; eaten at- the proper point, a 

 fine fruit — the very best. Bear frost after they arp 

 picked better than most apples.
