Characterization: Size fairly good, regular, smooth,
roundish conic, ground color very pale yellow
or white, well covered on exposed side with bright
red stripes with ground color showing between,
practically no dots but pimply like 20-ounce,
or even more so suppressed under skin, purplish
bloom, flesh nearly white, tinged slightly sometimes,
slightly satiny, fine grain, rather tough,
fairly juicy, too acid to eat fresh, - unless fully ripe,
no distinct flavor, too poor in quality to be of
value. Some water core some seasons.
