What this apple (or crab) - 
Augustine Winter is like seems
very uncertain.  this no. may or may 
not be OK.  It differs decidedly from
#K-20-5.  what is apparently this
number (#19) has some outstanding
chemical factors in comparison with
same 60 other astringent apples and crabs
as shown by Caldwell (see J.A.R. Vol. 36 #5
pp. 391-406 (March 1, 1928).
Scions received 3/2/05 from Linn Co. Nur. Co. Center
