When budded or grafted on the Standard French, or Japanese Pear stocks it also makes a fine upright tree that is vigorous and productive. It bears large fruit of a greenish color covered with light russet, which is shaded, with brownish red, and sprinkled with brown dots. The flesh is but- tery, melting, juicy and highly perfumed.

The flesh is yellowish, juicy, melting, and of rich sugary flavor. Ripens in November but can be kept until
