          good body, tender quite juicy, mild
subacid. fairly rich, good.  It was noted
that "probably it [this variety] does not reach
at the best here its highest quality.

In 1931 there were some excellent
specimens, beautifully striped.
On Aug. 14, 1926 it was observed that the
specimens looked as if picked too immature (they
were picked July 9, earlier than in any other year
in the record)  Ground color was greenish and
unattractive. Comment to the effect that the
appearance if the fruit did not indicate the
variety to be adopted here.  In 1928,
most of the specimens were oblate in
form, and lacked most of the
characteristics of the variety.
