NUMBERED SELECTIONS 
In order to give members an opportunity to help test promising selections 
from fruit breeding work of the New York State Agricultural Experiment 
Station at Geneva, the Association has propagated a number of outstanding 
seedlings which are still under number. Members who are interested in trying 
out these selections will assist the Experiment Station fruit breeders in evalu- 
ating this material. From time to time when these selections have begun to 
fruit, members may be asked to fill in questionnaires as to their opinion of 
the value of these selections. 
The Geneva Experiment Station, however, must retain control over these 
selections until they have been proved worthy of introduction to the general 
public, at which time they will be named. Therefore, members will be requested 
to sign an agreement that they will grow the plants for test purposes only 
and that they will not sell, give away, or otherwise distribute plants or propa- 
gating material until the selections are named or until they are authorized 
to do so by the Department of Pomology of the New York State Agricultural 
Experiment Station. The following are available in limited quantities.
