F Newtown Pippin, Yellow. 
Norruern Spy. 
This ‘beautiful new American fruit is one of the most deli- 
cious, fragrant, and sprightly of all late dessert apples. It ripena 
in January, keeps till June, and always commands the highest 
market price. The tree is of rapid, upright growth, and bears 
moderate crops, It originated on the farm of Oliver Chapin; of 
Bloomfield, near Rochester,,N. Y. The trees require high 
culture and open heads to let in the sun, otherwise the fruit 1s 
wanting in flavour, and apt to be imperfect and knotty. 
Fruit large, conical-flattened. Skin thin, smooth, in the shade 
greenish or pale yellow, in the sun covered with light and dark 
stripes of purplish-red, marked with a few pale dots, and a thin 
white bloom. Stalk three-fourths of an inch long, rather slender, 
‘planted in a very wide, deep cavity, marked with russet. Cal 
-small, closed; basin narrow, ‘abrupt, furrowed. Flesh white, 
finc-grained, tender, slightly sub-acid, with a peculiarly fresh and 
delicious flavour. ;
