THE APPLE. 
Golden Sweet. 
Orange Sweeting, or 
Golden Sweet. 
Kenrick. 
A celebrated Connecticut fruit sent us by Mr. Lyman, of tl at 
state. Fruit above tbe medium size, roundish, scarcely flattened, 
fair, and well formed. Skin, when fully ripe, pale yellow or 
straw colour. Stalk about an inch long, slender at its junction 
with the fruit. Calyx closed, and set in a basin of moderate 
depth. Flesh tender, sweet, rich, and excellent. The tree is a 
pretty free grower, and bears large crops. A valuable sort. 
Ripe in August and September. 
Golden Ball. Ken. 
This is a favourite apple in the state of Maine, and a vigorous, 
hardy variety. Fruit large, roundish, narrowing a little to the 
eye, about three inches deep — and a good deal ribbed at the 
sides and towards the crown. Skin smooth, golden yellow, with 
a few dots. Stalk set in a broad, shallow cavity. Eye rather 
narrow. Flesh crisp, tender, with a rich, aromatic flavour. 
December to March. A native of Connecticut. Moderate 
bearer. 
Golden Russet, of Mass. 
Tree vigorous, upright, and productive. Fruit medium, glo- 
bular, conic. Skin golden russet, with a sunny cheek. Stalk 
small and short, inserted in a deep cavity. Calyx nearly closed, 
segments small, recurved, basin deep, round, and open. Flesh 
yellowish-white, tender, with a rich mild sub-acid flavour. 
January, April. 
There are many Golden Russets about the country, and it is 
difficult to identify them. This is from Mass., and believed to 
be distinct from those grown in N. Y., and west, yet may not 
prove so when fully tested.
