Though one of the oldest American apples, it is doubtful whether Fall Pippin is properly ap- preciated. The name is inapt, as in the North the fruit keeps well into mid-winter, and is of first rate quality to the very last. The color is a beautiful golden jellow, and the flesh is tender, rich, crisp, aromatic, and of delectable quality either for dessert or for culinaiy uses. The trees are hardy, healthy, long-lived, and verj- large; few trees carry a more majestic port at maturity. Unfortunately, tree and fruit are most inviting prey to the apple-scab fungus; this accounts for the neglect into which the variety fell a generation ago, but, with means of controlling the scab, its culture should be renewed.
