Remarks: Acc. No. 3101, Pom. No. 24563 should be
Cornell from L. R. Taft, Mich, Agr. Coll. East
Lansing, Mich. This checks with Pom. Jour
entry.
While no decided question was raised
regarding correctness of identity.  repeatedly comment
was recorded in regard to lack in quality - 
the prevailing impression being that Domine
possessed rather high dessert quality - which was
not the case with any of these specimens.

Characterization:
Medium size, somewhat below the assumed
standard for the variety oblste, irregular, uneven,
more of less ribbed. Ground color pale yellow,
these specimens having only a little of the normal
red markings typical of the variety at its best.
Dots few, but large, raised, many appearing as
minute russet spots. Flesh tinged yellow, fine
grain, tender but rather firm, mildly acid
fairly rich, pretty good but below the conceived
standard of the variety - . (These are 1925 notes)
