Note: Weller, Rath zu Altenburg. After discussing the characteristics of the reinette apple, known locally also as "prinzenapfel" or "Zuckerhut", the writer advocates elimination of such nomenclatural hybrids as "Apfelbirn", "Birncalville" and "revalischer Birnapfel", proposing instead "runde Herbstbergamotte", simply "Calville", and "revalischer Zikad-Apfel" respectively for the three varieties.
