Core small, regular, closed, touching the eye; Axis short; Seeds short, wide, dark; Flesh light yellow, very fine-grained, tender, juicy; Flavor sub-acid, aromatic; first quality, or very best, for the dessert, or the _evening party_, during December and January. =Fall Wine.= [Illustration: Fig. 92.--FALL WINE.] Origin unknown. A great favorite in the West as a table fruit; little grown in the Eastern States, whence it was brought. Downing supposes this is because the fruit is there defective. In virgin soil it is remarkably fair and handsome. Tree of medium size, rather slender, but healthy, spreading, and annually productive. Fruit medium, oblate, handsome; inclined to crack open if left on the tree till ripe; Surface very smooth, waxen-yellow, almost completely covered with bright, and often deep red, upon which it is indistinctly striped; Dots minute. Basin abrupt, wide, regular or wavy; eye small, closed; Calyx reflexed. Cavity wide, regular, uniformly green; Stem long, slender. Core medium, regular, closed, meeting the eye; Seeds numerous, angular or plump; flesh yellow, breaking, tender, fine-grained, juicy; flavor mild sub-acid, and very aromatic; Quality best, for table and market, during September and October or later. =Garden.= GARDEN ROYAL. [Illustration: Fig. 93.--GARDEN.] This fine apple has been received from quite distant points, Chillicothe, Ohio, and Salem, Indiana. It is quite distinct in season from the _Beefsteak_ or _Garden_ of Downing, but in description corresponds very closely with the _Garden-Royal_ of Elliott, which fruit I have not seen. Origin unknown. Fruit pretty large, roundish, flat, regular; Surface smooth, yellowish-green, slightly shaded red, scattered stripes, carmine; Dots minute, black. Basin wide, regular, small, closed. Cavity deep, acute, regular, green; stem short to medium, sometimes knobby. Core wide, closed or open, regular, clasping the eye; seeds small, pointed, brown; flesh pale yellow or whitish, tender, fine-grained, juicy; Flavor sub-acid, aromatic, saccharine, agreeable; Quality very good to best; Use dessert, kitchen, market; Season August to October; worthy of cultivation. =Golay.= This fruit originated near Vevay, Indiana, and is supposed to be a seedling of the _Janet_, which it somewhat resembles. Fruit medium, oblate, somewhat conic, truncated, regular; Surface smooth, yellow, mixed, striped, purplish-red; Dots minute, gray, scattered, indented. Basin wide, regular; Eye small, closed. Cavity wide, regular; Stem short. Core very small, pyriform, closed, clasping; Seeds numerous, large, plump, brown; Flesh yellowish-white, breaking, tender, juicy; Flavor sub-acid, rich; Quality good to best; Use, table; Season, January to May. =Harvest Redstreak.=
