Early Butter of Cincinnati. This is a variety which our Cincin- nati poraologists seem unable to recog- nize with any known description.

The original tree at Cincinnati is said to have been probably brought from New-Jersey. It is of upright growth, short-jointed, yellowish brown wood, forming a handsome symmetrical head. Fruit small, oblong ovate, narrowing most to the stem, hght greenish yellow, with dark green specks, rarely a bronzed red in sun; calyx, prominent; seg- ments, bold, reflexed; core, compact; %eeds, few, defective; flesh, white, juicy, buttery, "very ; Last ECHASSERY.
