Remarks:
Variety - not satisfactorily identified.  Notes reputedly refer to likeness
to Summer Rambo, but apparently somewhat later in season.
Surely in the Summer Rambo - Grosh - Western Beauty - Smokehouse
group.  Mr. Irwin changed name on one painting of Adams
to Summer Rambo.  In 1922 & 23 I considered it same as Summer
Rambo. In 1926, I noted that Adams seemed indistinguishable

1926, I noted: "These specimens are surely very likeH. R2-T1,
Western Beauty." Sept. 21, 1927, I noted: "Except for its season,
this apple might easily pass for Summer Rambo, although
that variety is usually smooth and regular, while there
are certain irregularities in this variety such as
indistinct ribbing,  with sides unequal; possibly
in some cases a suggestion of truncate form; some
other slight differences were noted but there was
apparently considerable seasonal variation.
It is of passing interest to record here that under entry
No. 12647 in Jour. of Pom. Receipts it was recorded that
