tough fleshed nondescript thing. Nearly sweet
but about as flavorless as an apple can
be - worthless. Following fruit notes relate
to Row 19. (All notes on this tree Row 20 disregarded)
may be sprout from stock. From
E. A. Bessey, Turkistan, Feb 1904.

Good size: slightly conic, very distinctly
elongated smooth, regular. Ground color
greenish yellow, with light red blush on exposed
side; also covered with bloom. Dots numerous,
small, whitish, inconspicuous on most specimens.
Flesh whitish, fairly fine grain, rather tough, firm,
lacking in juice, mild subacid, rather flat -
no distinctive flavor, hardly fair in quality
very upright habit of tree and much elongated fruit
