While revising the foregoing catalogue of apples, considerable discussion arose in regard to a number of the varieties. A good deal that was said has already been. published by the Society, but the following points may be new to some:

BULLOCK'S PIPPIN, (Am. G. Russet).-Dr. Warder and several others said this variety has of late years so generally suffered by smut and scab in Southern Ohio, as, together with its small size, to render it hardly worthy of cultivation, even by amateurs, notwithstanding its fine flavor.

BALTIMORE, (of Elliott)-Remarks were made commendatory of this as a market fruit; and inquiries for information respecting its true name or history, but nothing was elicited on these points. See last report, p. 3.

COGSWELL.-Mr. Bateham expressed some surprise that this apple, said to be very good, and long cultivated in some parts of Northern Ohio, was seldom, if ever, seen at our fairs or other exhibitions. He hoped that members who had the opportunity would take some pains to bring it out, as very few had ever seen it.

EARLY GEORGE.-More information was also desired respecting this apple, sup posed to be a seedling of Muskingum county, and of considerable promise. (See former reports). No definite response was made, and the hope was expressed that the committee ad interim would look after it the coming summer.
