CHAPTER XL 



ELECT LIST OF VARIETIES, ADAPTED TO DIFFERENT LOCALI- 

 TIES OF THE UNION.

 rarieties, will enable the inexperienced cultivator to pre- 

 pare select lists of greater or less extent, a few of the most 

 raluable being in capitals, a larger number c: ^.eral 



value in small capitals, and a still larger number in i: 

 But as the same sort does not often succeed alike in all re- 

 gions, il becomes desirable to obtain lists of those fruits best 

 adapted to particular localities. The following are given 

 *for this purpose.
