Remarks: This orchard location is OK for Acc. No. 4303
but Acc. record gives the variety as Haywood - not
Hoover, yet the orchard record (Alphbetical list) gives
this location to Hoover, which apparently occurs no where
else in the orchard.

Characterization: 1925 notes.
Medium size - smaller thanthis variety usually is.
Quite regular, roundish, sometimes a little conic.
Ground color yellowish, nearly entirely overspread
with deep, dark red; sometimes indistinctly striped.
Dots numerous, mostly submerged, rather small,
about apex but unusually large over body of fruit
some appearing as angular breaks in the skin.
Some buttermilk overspread. Flesh yellowish,
rather fine grain, quite tender, ordinarily juicy,
mild subacid, rather flat, lacks richness, not
high quality - probably rating about fair.
