Wragg, a nurseryman at Waukee, Iowa. Later, trees of several 
varieties of European cherries which Prof. Budd had imported 
were obtained from him, and among them were the Lutovka and 
the Brusseler Braun. When these fruited it was discovered that 
the variety which had previously been obtained from Mr. Wragg 
under the name Lutovka was not like the Lutovka which Prof. 
Budd sent us, but was identical with the Brusseler Braun. It 
answered to the published descriptions of Brusseler Braun{ and 
was found to be identical with that variety as grown at the Michi-

ceived cherry buds from this Station under the name Lutovka that
