Nomenclature of Our Russian Fruits.

By resolution of you: Society at Grand
Rapids, in 1885, I was ‘‘ given the specia
work of revising and arranging the
nomenclature of American importations
of Russian fruits,” but it seemed best not

to undertake the work at once. There
were too many queries; too many things
supposed, but not known. My sugges-

tions are: now the better for the delay.
Since then I have seen Dr. Edward Regel
at St. Petersburg, also his son, Mr. Albert
Regel, who had lately returned from
Turkestan, and who was his father’s cor-
respondent when making that general
collection of the apples of Russia, from
which he selected those sent to the
United States Department of Agriculture
in 1870. The result is that I can now
offer you a correct Russian original of
that importation, except two or three
names, which can only be vaguely
subsaed at.

It may be remembered that the list sent
by Dr. Regel to Mr. Wm. Saunders, of
the Agricultural Department at Wash-
ington, was lost at the Russian embassy
there, and Mr. Saunders was thus forced
to issue it in the form in which it was re-
turned to him.

I also had, last winter, several inter-
views with Count Alexeeff, of Moscow, a
Russian physician and scientist, who has
aided me very much in this work.

Owing to the confusion existing among

the names of these Russian fruits, Prof.
Budd and I talked matters over, and I
prepared lists of these different importa-
tions, and they appeared in a bulletin of
the [owa Agricultural College in 1885, al-
though a large number of St. Petersburg
varieties interwoven at the last moment,
by Prof. Budd, I must not be held ac-
countable for.

I have aimed at:

1. A euphonic rendering of the Russian
name, leaving no doubt as to the Russian
letters composing that name.

2. For use in this country, a Russian
name, or a translation, as short and fit as
I can suggest, retaining that given in the
Department list whenever practicable. I
have, however, retained several short
Kussian names, viz.: Anis instead of
Anisette, Arcad instead of Arcadian,
Borovinka instead of Mushroom, Repka
instead of Turnip; also Reinette rather
than Queen. I have alsoretained the word
Naliv, which is applied to the Skvosnoi,
Glasapfel or Klarapfel, or Pomme Trans-
parente, and technically does not mean
‘“SJuicy.”’ Unmusical names like ‘Cut
Apple” and ‘‘Smelling Apple’ I have
thought best to change.

Names in the Russian column in
brackets, are names which do not appear
in Regel’s Russkaya Pomologaya pub-
lished in 1868.

RUSSIAN APPLE TREES.

Scions received by the Iowa State Agricultural College from Dr. Regel, St. Peters-
burg, March, 1879. This collection contained seventy-two varieties. Of these the
following either do not appear in the U. S. importation of 1870, or else they appear
under other numbers.

NOTES ON THE ABOVE.

No. 10 might prove the same as 964 Dep. Autumn Streaked. 243, Nasliednik Nico-
lai Aleksandrovitch. J am ata loss fora short name for this. Prof. Jankowski and
others give Nicolayer as a synonym, but Dr. Regel never mentions it, neither in his
Russian Pomology nor in any catalogue I have seen. Besides this Andre Leroy
states that Nicolayer is said to have originated in the Crimea, while Dr. Regel gives
the St. Petersburg and Baltic coast provinces as the home of the N. N. A. Prof.
Budd suggested ‘‘ Throne” because that personage was heir to the throne, and I at
the time agreed; yet I fear such a translation is so free as to be open to censure. 239
Zelenka may be 967 Dep. Zelenoe. 361 Pipka ostrokonetchnaya, the sharply pointed
pipka has been erroneously propagated as the Astrachan Pippin.

NOTES.

-No. 265, Pipka gorkaya is literally the
Bitter Pipka, but Mr. Schroeder, of Mos-
cow, says it is by no means bitter, and a
fine sub-acid apple, which received its
name from the town of Gorke, where it
originated; and yet if so it should have
been named Pipka Goretskaya. 268, Za-
koritnoe, which means a dug-out trough,
or which might mean a velvety apple,
must not be confused with Sacharnaya,
Sacharine. 231, Zolotoi arkad, Golden
Arcad, must not be mistaken for 188 and
237, Yellow Arcad. 310, Christapfel is a
fairly accurate translation of 447 Rosh-
destvenskoe. 295, Imperial is not in Re-
gel, but might be a translation of 208,
Korolevskoe, or of such a name as 'T'sars-
koe. 850 and 554, Lapouchoe, are trans-
lated Burr, but Dr. Alexeeff tells me that
although (to be more exact) Lapukhoe
may mean Burr, yet Liapoukhoe (a dis-
tinction I can hardly make in English let-
ters) means Great Hars. This latter is
that described by Regel, and I have there-
fore retained the Russian name. 413,
Skrijapel, as it appears in Russian, in
Regel, is translated Cross. The termina-
tion ‘‘apel” the Russianized form of
“Capfel” betokened German origin, but

Germans would not recognize it, and I
had said it was notCross. Itdidnot then
occur to me that it was Danish. 437,
Sachoiswan, puzzles both Dr. Regel and
Mr. Albert Regel. The name seems un-
known to them, and the Doctor can only
suggest that it might be intended for
Sacharnoe, Sacharine, or perhaps Zakor-
itnoe. The apple must have a name, so I
have retained the name Saxonian. 551,
Arbuzovskoe I have left as Watermelon,
even though it is named after Mr. Arbu-
zoff, Mr. Watermelon. 565, Vorgunok,
must not be confused with Vargulek or
Vorgulek. 584, 1 have used Erdbeer in-
stead of Strawberry as we have so many
strawberry apples. 599, Romnenskoe or
Romenskoe? Regelin his pomology gives
the former, as coming from Romna, near
Moscow; but in his catalogues of late
years, he gives Romenskoe, as though
from the town of Romensk. Mr. Schroe-
der, of Moscow, in his Plodovui Sad, in
1886, adheres to Romnenskoe. Mr. Albert
Regel says he does not know, but says
that Romna is not a fruit growing region,
and Romensk is; leaving the chances in
favor of the latter. I mention this to
show that accuracy is not always possible.
