From my oldest trees specimens have been exhibited at county fairs and horticultural meetings, and sent to many pomologists and prominent growers.

Twenty Ounce. {Cayuga Red-Streak). Very large and showy, roundish, uneven; greenish yellow, splashed and marbled with dull red ; flesh is good, sprightly, though not high-flavored, coarse-grained; its size and regular bearing makes it popular.
