Munssn iSUeeting This variety, introduce
ed by J. Storrs of Marathon, N. Y, was once
pronounced by P. Barry identical with the
Northern Sweet; and subsequently, in his
Fruit Garden, he described the two a. being
much alike. The Munson has now fruited
here, and proves to be variety of good size,
fine appearance, and fair quality but quite
distinct from the Northern Sweet not bearing
the least resemblance to it in the appearance
or quality of the fruit, or the habit or growth
of the tree. The Northern Sweet is by far
the better fruit.
