Remarks:  See remarks under Acc. No
4308. E : 19-20 : 4, attached.
In 1923 it was noted on
specimen card that this variety
was the same as G : 9-10 : 3 -
A large greenish yellow of pretty fair
dessert quality.  Repeated in 1925 with statement
that both were identical with B : 3-4 : 3 which
is supposed to be and likely is Lowell.
Source of scions same as #4307 (See * ft note [footnote] for Acc No. 4307)

Characterization: 1925 notes.  In general size and
from this apple suggests a rather large 
Grimes Golden.  Skin color green (probably
not fully mature else it would doubtless have
been yellow).  Dots light colored, numerous,
indistinct, submerged.  Flesh yellowish,
fairly fine grain, tender, juicy, subacid,
flavor a little peculiar but pleasant.

Has some of the characteristics of Iowa Beauty
of about same season, though these two
varieties are clearly distinct.  ( no 2d sheet)
