fit and urge others to try this succesSlui
medicine. Thus the circle OF its poPulAi.

enthusiastic in behalf of Hoods SArsapa'

chard, thinking perhaps you might
enlighten us as to its name, if it has
one." He adds that some think it is
common fruit, because the tree is a
very old one, but it seems hardly posi-
ble." Though we can not name this
fruit, there are two points in connection
with the subject which we wish to
speak of. The first is in regard to a
queer confusion in the popular mind in
regard to" common fruit" and grated
fruit" All our popular "grafted :"
apples were of course first originated
from seed. " Grating" did not pro-
duce them, it only increased them
and consequently there is no distinction
between the common "apple and the
"grafted fruit" except that some one
has thought good seeding worthy ia
be increased in that way. This being
the case, the only improbability as to
this, or any good apple being com,
mon,"i. c. Seeding fruit, is the inn
probability, more or less, of its having
escaped the notice of those who woulC
take pains to increase it by grating
The second point is in regard to dis
tinguishing varieties by the fruit alone
So great is the resemblance between
varieties of apples, often quite distinc
in origin, that so experienced a pc
mologist as the veteran John j
Thomas, author of the American Frui
Culturist, remarked to us at frui
meeting in Grand Isle that, outside of
very few marked varieties, he had lon
declined to name kind from the frui
alone. The risk of doing this was we
illustrated by the case in hand. TIL
