  The

  pre- 
  

   viously 
  tested 
  as 
  No.

   The 
  fruit 
  resembles 
  that 
  of 
  Bartlett 
  and 
  is 
  about 
  same 
  

   size, 
  ripening 
  about

  Keiffer. 
  The 
  flesh 
  

   is 
  smooth

  is 
  almost 
  free 
  of

   It

  than 
  Bartlett 
  but 
  is 
  excellent 
  for 
  cook- 
  

   ing

  canning 
  and 
  fairly 
  good 
  for 
  dessert 
  purposes.
