Hudson River Crab.— While on a trip 
through the Hudson River district, I found 
■several apples that were new to me. Among 
them was this crab, the tree being loaded 
down with large, beautiful and good flavored 
fruit. The skin is yellow, splashed and 
stri ped with light red. The tree with its load 
of fruit is a beautiful object, and many 
would grow it for its ornamental value.

* k This remarkable Summer pear is not only the most 
beautiful in appearance, but also the largest early pear 
yet produced. The fruit is so beautiful that it sold in 
the markets of New York the past season, and for many 
years, as high as $4.00 per half bushel crate ; and as the 
tree is a heavy annual yielder, tne profits to be derived 
from it are apparent. As it is a good shipper there is 
nothing, perhaps, that can be planted by the fruit 
grower (particularly at the South) that will yield such 
lucrative returns. 
The original tree, now supposed to be over one hun¬ 
dred years old, sprouted in the cleft of a rock on a farm 
formerly belonging to John Lawson, in Ulster County, 
N. Y., where it still stands; and during its long life 
has never been affected with blight or other disease, 
nor injured by insects ; maintaining perfect health and 
vigor. The fruit may be described as exceedingly 
large for an early pear, and cannot be surpassed in 
point of color, which is a most beautiful crimson on a 
bright yellow ground. “ It seems to absorb and reflect 
the first rays of the morning sun, and becomes more 
brilliant in clear, dry weather.” The flesh is crisp, 
juicy, and pleasant, but not of high quality. Ripens m 
Central New York from middle of July to first of Au¬ 
gust (and of course correspondingly earlier in locations 
further South), and possesses superi r keeping and 
shipping qualities, the tree is a good grower, a prolific 
annual cropper and begins bearing young.” 
GRADES OF TREES. — Note that our 
largest size trees are too large to ship long dis¬ 
tances. The first class, 5-8 calibre, trees are 
the best for general planting everywhere, hav¬ 
ing good roots, good bodies, and well branched.
