APPLES. 35 



Fall Harvey. 



Eemarks. — Little known here (Ohio), " Not as good 

 as Pall Pippin," — Trans. Ohio Pom. Society. 



Fallowater, or Fallawalder.., or Apple of the Fallen 

 Timber, called, also, Talpehocken, from the creehof that name. 

 Color, pale yellow and green ; form, roundish flattened, 

 and roundish ovate ; size, 1 to 2 ; use, table ; quality, 2 ; 

 season, December to March. (See Appendix, 36.) 



REMARKS.^The English books say this apple possesses 

 the Newtown Pippin flavor. Ours does not at ^all. 

 " Second rate." — Trans. Ohio Pom. Society. Taluable for 

 distant markets. Has a-thick skin. Eequires rich lime- 

 stone soils. Fruit, always fair and large. "Is a great 

 bearer of very fair, large apples, wanting nauch flavor." 

 — Reports from Pennsylvania to the American Pom,. Society. 

 In our own locality (Cincinnati), it is not so valuable for 

 carrying far, as our soil seems to give it a flesh more soft, 

 and therefore more easily bruised. Its flavor, even h6re, 

 will suit people whose tastes are rather easily pleased. 

 Its flavor is any where not high, and when cooked it 

 has hardly any. Still it is a passable Winter- fruit. At 

 tim«s very fine. 



" PALL QUEEN, Red Gloria Mundi, Horse Apple, or 

 Mundy's. Color, green and yellow to orange, mostly 

 striped with red ; form, roundish conical ; size, 1 ; use, 

 table and kitchen ; quality, 1 ; season, August to No- 

 vember. 



Eemarks. — -Well known in Kentucky. Valued highly 

 South and West, especially for cooking. "Of Southern 

 Ohio. Large and handsome." — Trans. Ohio Pom. Society. 

 A grand apple for early Winter. One of the best large 

 apples, worth fifty Gloria Mundies, and very superior to 

 the Fallowater, for cooking, if not dessert.
