It was quite a number of years ago that at one of the A.P.S. meetings there was a large exhibit of both new and old apple varieties. In conversation with the late Mr. Howell a variety expert with Starks Nurseries, he made a very pertinent remark as we looked over the new varieties. Said Mr. Howell, "The world is full of good apples." Think this over, and you will know what he meant. That remark has always remained with me. It tended to make me more conservative in appraising new varieties. And rightly so, for a new variety has got to be superior in a least one respect, to other old varieties commonly grown, if it is to be successful.
