New York AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT STATION, 301 
Eastern Plateau. The Catskills and the high plateau to the 
west reaching to the basin of the Central Lakes. The western 
boundary of this region cannot be drawn with definiteness but 
the eastern boundary is well drawn being the highlands overlook- 
ing the Hudson Valley. Both the wild and the cultivated flora in 
this great region are variable in its different parts and in accordance 
with these differences, and to agree with the topography of the 
district, several subdivisions could be made. But it is an agri- 
cultural belt rather than a pomological one, though the apple suc- 
ceeds remarkably well in some valleys, and apple growing is not 
sufficiently well developed to furnish data for reliable lists for all 
possible districts. The varieties named in the lists given are those 
which succeed well under many conditions and especially those of 
a somewhat adverse climate since so much of this district is moun- 
tainous or high and therefore cold.
