Tomlinson, Jr. Four varieties, Early Black, Houes, Searles, and McFarlin, are descri'bed in detail. These varieties made up about percent of the acreage at the time of the last survey. These four varieties and 52 others are listed alphabetically in a table with a general descrip- tion of each. The ibulletin lists 127 variety names and 44 synonyms, several of which will be new to many of the growers. Some have been in the literature only a few times, such as Applegate and Buckalew; some like names from a book, such as Bozarthtown Pointer, and Nancy Munyon; and at least one was named for a Civil War major-Dill.
