Jan. to Mar. *BOIKEX—A handsome Austrian variety unexcelled as a fine cooking fruit, medium to large, yellow sometimes with red cheek, a late keeper—at its best in April or May. Tree an annual bearer, extremely hardy, thick, heavy, perfect foliage, well adapted to resist atmospheric changes. Extract from letter written June 27, 1898: "Now, in regard to Boiken apples, the original trees are now loaded with the sixth consecutive crop. We mention this to indicate disposition to bear annually, which to us is a great consideration, especially where you get the fine keeping qualities, coupled with the fact that as a cooking apple it has no equal in the spring, when it is at its best. We have marketed each year several barrels of fruit in Philadelphia, and it has always sold at the outside price. All things considered, we believe it is a very desirable variety for the orchard man. We do not mean to say that it is a choice dessert apple. It is rather too acid for this, but its very acidity makes it specially valuable for culinary ; Very respectfully, S. D. WILLARD. BISMAR
