OF apples, perhaps hitherto unrealized The
so-caled wine apple compensates for it's
under sizs by the triple combination of
brilliant color, favor of its own aud the
uDmistakAbe smell Of the best kinds, and

land greening odor will not carry back
many an eater in distant places 10 the Yer
mont cellar Of his youth where plenty pre-
vailed and where he could take his choice
OF varied hues, delicious lasts and smells
among the apple bins
