SUMMER PEARS. 20. Dearborn's Seedling. Small; turbi ftate ; stem an inch long, in a slight cavity ; shallow basin; very smooth, yellow, minute dots, a little russet around the stem; flesh while, juicy, melting, of a sweet, sprightly flavor. Aug. 20 to Sept. 10. Hardy, vigorous, and productive. Origi- nated by Gen. H. A. S. Dearborn, Roxbury, Ms. 21. OsBORN. Rather small; obtuse pyriform ; bright yellow, with brownish specks; stem stout, obliquely set ; calyx small, slightly sunk; flesh white, ten- der, melting, juicy, of a sweet, lively, aromatic flavor, with slight astrin- gency. Aug. at Cincin- nati. Vigorous. Orig- inated by Mr. John Os- born, JEconomy, la. Ranked among the best early pears, and Ernst thinks that it will sus- tain this character, but he has fruited it only one year. Note. The last seven kinds, excepting No. 17, the AVindsor, are all very fine, and excellent for the private garden; but as the wind-falls of the Bartlett are in market by the time these kinds are well ripened, they are noc profitable for market, o^ving to their small size. 155
