The Kanola Avocado, an Early Variety. (Persea Americana Mill.. S. P. 1. 



No. 43560.) 



For southern California early-ripening varieties of the Guatemalan race are particularly desired, in 

 order to have fruit available during the winter months. The variety here shown, from near Anti- 

 gua, Guatemala, is considerably earlier than the average Guatemalan avocado and is at the same 

 time an attractive fruit of excellent quality. (Photographed by Wilson Popenoe, Jan. 29, 1917, at 

 Antigua, Guatemala; P17068FS.)
