The following varieties have been developed in connection with systematic 

 breeding work by the NEW JERSEY EXPERIMENT STATION and we can espec- 

 ially recommend the Cumberland, Radiance, and Eclipse for orchard plantings, in a 

 commercial way the Pioneer not being so suitable for commercial use. We are keep- 

 ing well in touch with this work and expect to have the different varieties as soon as 

 they are released by the N. J. Department, and they promise to have some great im- 

 provements over some of our present varieties.
