Basin deep, often abrupt and narrow, generally waved, folded or plaitefi, and these marks are quite characteristic ; Eye large and open, from the shortness of the calyx. On this account the variety is considered very subject to the attncks of the Codling-raoth. Cavity wide, regular or wavy, generally brown; Stem medium to long, often curved or inclined, sufficiently stout. Core medium, regular, closed, meeting, sometimes clasp- ing the eye; Seeds numerous, long, angular, imperfect; flesh yellow, breaking, frequently coarse-grained, juicy, sub-acid, rich; some northern specimens d,re fine-grained and almost first quality; those from the South are coarse, poor and scarcely second-rate for table use, but are good for eooking; Season October to January, occasionally keeping Fig. 83.— Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Warder, J.
