One of the features of the Horticultural meeting at Lancaster was the universal praise given to this variety. It was regarded as one of the most profitable grown, as it is certainly one of the best, if not the very best desert apple. The most remarkable fact in its history is, that it has no star for Pennsylvania in the American Pomological Society's catalogue, though its native State, New Jersey, has taken care of it. It seems to be grown everywhere m the Southeastern part of the State, and its absence from Pennsylvania honors in the catalogue can only be from no Pennsylvanian being on hand to ask for a star when it has been under discussion.
