28489. MALUS BACCATA X 

 SYLVESTRIS. A very promising 

 hybrid with the "Baldwin" and *'Yel- 

 low transparent," by Dr. Walter Van 

 Fleet. Trees very prolific. Fruits 

 to 2 inches in diameter, slightly

27060. MALUS SYLVESTRIS. 



Afghasian Apple. From F. N. Meyer, 

 Caucasus, Russia. Large, grayish- 

 green apple with one cheek narrowly 

 streaked with red, fresh sub-acid 

 flavor. Picked in late October or early 

 November, they ripen slowly and keep 

 well until late spring. May prove of 

 value for warmer sections of the 

 United States, especially for the Gulf 

 regions. 



7104. MANGIFERA INDICA. 



Amini Mango. A small but unusually 

 attractive variety from Bangalore, 

 India. Oval, compressed, about 8 

 ounces, bright yellow in color, over- 

 spread with crimson. Aroma pro- 

 nounced, flavor very spicy. The flesh 

 bright yellow and free from fiber. 

 Seems more productive than many In- 

 dian mangos and of probable com- 

 mercial value. Ripens rather early.
