, • had a fine variety of apple known as the "Ed
wards' Early," which he had been.cultiVating
for fifteen .years. It was the second 'earliest
apple in the season, and was recognized by
market-men as a good marketable apple. He.
. .
had found the apple in no other catalogue.

Committee bY the name smentioned.' It was

"N. and classed as a first- - rate. eating apple. it.
was a red striped,' firm, late winter apple. '
• Mr. Allen, of Virginia, said that the Mason
Pippin or "Mason Stranger," supposed to be a

eaten in April, was very fine. •
- Mr. Adams, of Portland; Me., said that in,
buying a place lately he had met withan early
apple, . called by the former owner of the

,Dr. Warder, of Ohio, called attention to the
"Siberian Crab." Some of his friends who had
tried and failed to grow other kinds had
turned their attention to the: Siberian apple,
and had grown some fine fruit of this class
ealled•the "Marengo Siberian." They flour
ished in cold and harsh districts on Lake Su
perior. The apples are small, but quite pala- •
table. It is of northern origin, and is very
hardy and of good proinise. It is easily culti

Pippin." •
1 1 - r. Maxwell; of-New York, asked, for in
formation of the "Wagner." '
~ Mr. Wyer; of Illinois, said that the "Wag
ner" was a money-making apple, and a Iftst
elasS •frpit. The tree is very erect in • its
groWth, and can be planted - at a distance of
. ten feet apart. The tree succeeds root-grafted.
•Mr. Kelsey„of Kansas, said; that the Wag-.
Der could be planted bet Ween other trees,

-Wagners twenty years old,and bearing.

" Wagner" twenty years ago,and it was now in

grafted wouldialtrns - long .as-any-other:—A
properly root-grafted Wagner tree he thought
could be made as long-lived as any other tree.
Mr. Kelsey, of Kansas, advocated the graft
ing from the second tatting. His experience
justified him in this practice.

from the first cutting.
The subject of Pears was then taken un
and a discussion of the Clapp Pear commenced.

generally, that they ought to be picked early,
if only to prevent their being stolen.
Mr. Hoyd, of Massachusetts, said that the

its foliage.

;the general opinion of the fruit under dis
cussion.
