CATALOGUE AND INDEX OF APPLES
EXPLANATION
The first column presents the name of the apple, next its size, then its origin; or, if in brackets, the place where the variety is cultivated and was found. The Roman numerals indicate the Class and Order to which it is referred, and the Arabics, the Section and Sub-section, according to the classification adopted in this work. After this comes the season of maturity, Summer, Autumn, Winter, Spring, and the estimate of quality, from very best, best, very good, good; good? meaning almost good; poor? meaning rather so, and last plainly poor, when considered decidedly inferior. The names of varieties described in this volume are given in full faced type, with reference to the pages, while synonyms are printed in Italics. Abbreviations will explain themselves.
