Mrs. Ellen S. TurrEE, Bee Keep-

advertisement of Mrs, Ellen S. Tup-
rer. Brighton, Washington county,
Iowa. We seldom do more than mere
ly call attention to advertisements.
Mrs. T. is entitled to more than a pass
ing notice. Her perseverr.nce and en
ergy is a practical illustration of what
a woman of good pound sense can uo.
We have Hot a personal acquaintance
with tier, but as eheia a correspondent
of many of the agricultural papers in
the country, we have read her articles
and watched her career with the lion

Editor 'of the Western Stock Journal,
who is a neighbor of Mra. Tuppcr,
pays her the following compliment
"We have been a neighbor of Mrs.
Tuppper for many years, and have

reputation, as an aparian, and -feel a

Her career is another illustration of

Continued from last wecek."
Mr. .McPherson thinks the fruit
gwd, but the tree tender. Fruit un
equal as to size,
Mr. Masters. With this variety the
limbs are inclined to droop,' and ad
vises top grafting instead of root graft
ing.
Wfdte Winter Pearmain. Mr. Brat-
ton considers this a number one vari-
ety.in all respects better fruit than
Belle Flower.
. Mr. Masters agrees with Mr. Brat-
ton.
Mr. Hollingslicad If I have the
true White Winter Pearmain, it is
very tender, and kills down to the
ground.
Mr. Beaver thinks no selection com-
pktenvithout it. Not, however, as
hardy as some other varieties; is not
inclined to over bear, and is regular.
Michael llenrjj Pippin. This vari
ety was presented for name, and de-
cidecl to be as named. Mr. Beaver
thinks this a fair specimen, and
recommends it for cultivation. Has
noticed some scabby fruit, but not in
this State.
Mr. Masters has had no experience
with it, but thinks favorable of it.
Fall Orange. Mr. Masters presen
ted for testing some fine specimens
weighing fourteen ounces, and said
the tree is a fine grower, and good
bearer with me; Is inclined todrop its
fruit from half-grown until ripe; Is
good for cooking from half-grown ;
its principal objection is, its size more
than is needed for one meal ; flesh is
rather coarse, but rich and lucious.
So the testors say.
Dr. McPherson thought if it was too
All decided it a superb apple, and its
general cultivation recommended.

All present decided the specimens
tested very fine.

not tested it before; thinks It properly
named, and if hardy, would be a de-
sirable variety.

-Mr. Bratton This tree
ha3 been very generally sold in thb
county, and has done well ; the trees
have borne early, fruited well and
given general satisfaction.
Mr. Smith With me the tree Is
hardy, a good healthy grower and the
fruit fine.
Mr. Beaver agrees with all that has
been said in regard to this apple.
Mr. Masters ;lost some trees, but
thinks it was because of over rii.hness
of the ground ; recommends it.
A large red apple presented as Ga
briel, was here tested and decided
not correctly named. It was a good
PPle resembling externally the Ga-
oriel, out submitted tome Kniic.iouna
to be something else. The Society
was unable to name it.
Red Canada. Mr. Masters finds it
to be a good apple ; good keeper, har-
dy and of fine flavor ; tree, slow grow-
er, but all in all, one of our best or-
liard varieties. Slow growing tree,-
are inclined to bear solid apples.
Fulton. An apple presented by Mr.
Alderman for name, and decided to
be the Fulton.
Mr. Beaver regards it as one of the
apples ; knows more about it than any
other variety. Was brought into no

unless "double worked.
Swarr. Mr. Masters said the tree
with him is tender; might succeed
well "double worked."
Mr. Beaver knows something about
it; hardly thinks it a first class tree;
fruit good ; would touch It lightly:
Pcnnocl: Mr. Masters considers it
a poor apple, and would invest but lit
tle in it; is subject to dry rot, and one
eating it would think he had cotton in
his mouth.
Somo specimens here tested and
found to vary owing to age of tree and
circumstances urder which grown.
Those grown on young trees were
considered much the best.
Evening Party was presented by Mr.
Alderman for name. After examina
tion and test, it was decided to.be as
named.
Mr. Furnas, of Nemaha, Baid he
planted the Nursery in 1838, from
which the tree producing the fruit
presented came, and that he believed
this correctly named The fruit was
considered by all as very fine. No
one knew particularly about it except
by representation.
Mr. Alderman says of this apple,
that he regards it as the most desirable
variety in his orchard; tree and fruit
hardy ; tree beautiful grower. . L
The other varieties presented by Mr.
Alderman could not be named. One
is a particularly line apple in size,
color and shape; above medium;
slightly streaked ; flesh yellow, and
highly flavored. . ,
Vandever Pippin. A number "of
fine specimens were tested. Mr. Mas-
ters thought the fruit fair a3 a cook-
ing apple; not first rate for eating;
tree rather tender.
Mr. Hughs said his brother had it in
bearing for several years, and was
well pleased with it
Orccn Newtown Pippin. Mr. Mas
ters Ihonght it had not been well tes-
ted yet in Nebraska; thinks the tree
tender while young; when well es
tablished does better; fruit number
one as to quality.
Tulpchoclcn.yir. Masters thinks
the tree rather tender; fruit good
looking, but not of first rate quality,
Golden Eusxctt. Mr. Hollingshead
said, with him it was a handsome and
hardy tree; bears well and of fine
quality.
Mr. Hughs said the tree with him
is ono of extraordinary beauty.
Cannon Pearmain. Mr. Masters has
host all the trees he had but one; is
verv tender: fruit large and hand-
80me.
A black apple was presented by Dr.
McPherson for name. It is of medi
um size; nearlj' black in color; flesh
yellow and very rich, but rather dry ;
resembling Gillflower, but for its
shape would be taken for that variety.
The Society then took into consid-
eration some varieties of apples out of
season. First the
Earhj Harvest. Nr. Minick has
planted several trees but always, lost
them ; too tender.
r. Hollingshead's experience- has
"double "working" would remedy the
difficult'.
All agree that the fruit is worth an
r. fT. rf
William's Favorite. Mr. Masters
planted it fourteen years ago, and has
had fruit off and on for ten years past,
The fruit Is almost first rate quality
grown in the sun ; those grown in
shade quite inferior. Tree perfectly
hardy and a regular and ever bearer.
Buffinaton'a Early. Mr. Masters
brought this variety with him from
. .
Illinois tifteen years ago, and nas
been growing it since. The tree is
hardy and without blemish ; is a
moderate every year bearer; fruit of
best quality ; brought four dollars per
bushel last year when Red June sold
at two dollars; ripens in July.
Ecd June. Mr. Hollingshead finds
tree hardy ; has not yet fruited it.
Mr. Beaver thinks the variety one
well worthy of cultivation. Tree
rather slow grower.
Duchess of Oldenburg. Mr. Mas'ers
has fruited it for six or seven yenrs
past; is a goodbearer; fruit of fair
size and good appearance; first rate
!br cookingfjrtoo tart for eating; tre
ne of the very hardiest. Recom
mend it for general cultivation.
Ecd AstracJian. Mr. Beaver con
siders it an indispensable .variety.
Mr. Masters has cultivated since in
Nebraska; has found the tree rather
a poor bearer ; better dwarf than stan
dard. Early Joe. Nr. Masters has culti
vated for a number of years, and finds
It a great bearer, and hardy.
Early Strawberry. Mr. Mas'ers
says it is hardy with him, but tree shy

Nebraska. Comes into bearing earlier
than any other variety. Generally
