Remarks: No record after 1925.  No strong
notes.  Probably was considered too well
known and too poor in quality
and in other respects - except perhaps
appearance to bother with in
detail
scions from Stark Bros. Louisiana, Mo. 192

Characterization:
1925 - 10/14  noted - that while spec.
not as highly colored sometimes
they were pretty well overspread
with a bright brilliant shade
of red striping and purplish
bloom.  Flesh very satiny.
tinged yellow.  Flesh fine
grain, very hard, moderately
juicy, mildly acid - lack richness,
spec far from eating ripe. (over)
