Arkansas Black—Originated near Bentonville, Arkansas. Fruit medium to large, fine form, beautiful dark maroon color, approaching to black ; flesh slightly sub-acid, juicy, "good," an excellent keeper. Colton—A very fine, early apple, claimed to be at least two weeks earlier than the Red Astrachan and Early Harvest. Delaware Red Winter—This variety was received from Delaware, but I fail to find a par- ticle of difference in the trees from the Lawver, and believe it to be identical with that variety. Huntsman's Favourite—An excellent Missouri apple. Tree a strong and vigorous grower, very productive. Fruit large, skin smooth, pale yellow, sometimes a shade of pale red in the sun ; flesh pale yellow, crisp, tender, and juicy, slightly aromatic ; very good, late keeper. Hatcher—A late-keeping apple from Middle Tennessee, where it is very popular. Fruit medium, skin very dark, rich red ; flesh yellow, firm, rather compact, juicy, mild, pleasant, rich, sub-acid, almost sweet ; very good. January and March. Ingram—Originated in Green Co., Mo. Fruit medium, orange yellow, mostly overspread with broken stripes of rich, warm red ; flesh yellowish white, moderately juicy, crisp, mild, sub-acid. Tree productive, and fruit especially valued for its long-keeping 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 Pajaro Valley Nurseries; Waters, James; Henry G.
