Claimed to be a great improvement on the Hub- bard. The shell is pale green in color, very hard and flinty, but at the same time so thin and smooth as to occasion the least possible waste in baking. The flesh is solid and thick and a bright orange yellow color, dry, and has a rich, delicate flavor peculiarly its own; more pro- ductive and a better keeper than either the Hub- bard or Marblehead and we prefer it for our own table use.
