Golden Pippin. 



Remarks. — Eather a vague name in this country. Once 

 very good in Britain, but of late years failing there ; in 

 some places becoming very hard and specky, and fine, 

 again, in other parts. In America it is a synonyme, erro- 

 neously, for Fall Pippin, Ortley, and several other yellow 

 apples. Some of the fruit, under this name, is unworthy.
