Lobo. This variety has come into prominence in a 
number of fruit districts due to the fact that it is 
very highly colored and has many McIntosh char- 
acteristics. While not equal to McIntosh in qual- 
ity, the quality is good. The season of Lobo begins 
a little earlier than McIntosh, but it keeps about 
“2 as long. The earlier coloring enables growers to 
é 2 pick Lobo in advance of McIntosh. It hangs on
