504 WISCONSIN FRUIT-GROWERS’ ASSOCIATION. 
Golden Russet —Best, Jan. to April. Tree very hardy, rap¬ 
id grower, bears sparingly while young. 
Small Red Romanite —Good, Feb. to May. Tree hardy, 
good grower, fruits well. 
Rawle's Jannette —Best, keeps twelve months. Tree not as 
hardy as would be desirable in this climate, bears young and 
abundantly, has too many good qualities to be rejected. 
There are other good kinds I presume, which I have not 
tested. 
I am experimenting with two seedlings that originated in Clin¬ 
ton, and expect to make something of them. 
PEARS. 
Flemish Beauty —Best, Sept. Tree quite hardy, more so 
than most apples, good grower. Must succeed. 
Winter Nelis —Good, winter. Tree hardy, not equal to the 
above. 
i 
Stevens Genesee , Bartlett , Onondaga , Bezi Be La Motte , 
Bell's Long Green of Autumn —Will succeed under favorable 
circumstances. 
CHERRIES 
Are not worth talking much about, unless it be a few of the 
Morellos and Dukes. 
PEACHES 
Can be raised by covering the lower limbs in winter. 
PLUMS 
Have not succeeded very well with me, but other people ap¬ 
pear to get some. 
Smith's Orleans —Is most hardy. 
Cannot some one procure a cross between the native plum and 
some good variety, that would possess hardiness and fair qual¬ 
ity ?
