ish white, tender, breaking, mild subacid; quality good to very 
good. Season, October to December. , 
Ananarnon —A Russian, apple planted at the Station in 1884. 
The stock was furnished by Ellwanger & Barry, Rochester, N. Y. 
The few specimen fruits borne this year, 1892, may be described 
as follows: Fruit medium, nearly round, symetrical; calyx open, 
in-a wide, corrugated basin; stem slender, set in a deep narrow 
cavity; skin smooth, yellow, nearly covered with stripes and 
splashes of beautiful red; flesh white, coarse, subacid, nearly gond 
in flavor and quality. Season, September. 
Count Ortorr.--A Russian apple planted at the Station in 1884. 
The stock was furnished by Ellwanger & Barry, Rochester, N. Y. 
The few fruits borne this year, 1892, barely ripened before they 
became watercored and worthless. Season, August. : 
Granp Sutran.—A Russian apple, received from Ellwanger & 
Barry. Top-worked on a bearing tree in 1883, it has made a 
vigorous growth and this year, 1892, bore a large crop. Also the 
stock planted in 1884 bore a comparatively good crop. Season, 
August to September. Like the Count Orloff, this fruit, when 
ripening, is apt to become watercored and worthless. 
JuFFRIs.— A well-known September apple, of excellent quality; 
a moderate grower and very productive. It seems to be pecu- 
liarly subject to the seab (/'sicladium) though not so much 80 as 
is the F'ameuse. ° 
JERSEY SwWEETING.—A well-known variety that begins to ripen 
the last of August. Fruit greenish yellow, sometimes nearly cov- 
ered, with pale, dull red. It seems to be even more susceptible to 
’ attacks of the scab (/’ustcladvum) than the Jeffris. 
Lorp SurFietp --An English apple valuable for culinary use. 
Fruit medium to large, conical, greenish yellow. Tree productive 
but in the Station orchard it has blighted badly for several years, 
notwithstanding all efforts to keep the blighted limbs cut out, and 
it is doubtful whether it will survive another season. 
No. 225, Depr.—A Russian apple, of United States Department 
of Agriculture importation, received in 1888 from Merrill, Anthony 
& Co., Geneva, N. Y., and top-worked on a bearing tree. The first — 
specimens of fruit were borne this season, and may be described 
as medium in size, greenish yellow, slightly blushed on one side;
