C. C. Newman, Clemson Agricultural College. 



Virginia : i : — Not grown extensively for market. 



2 : — Both groups succeed well in Virginia, but the sour cherries appear 



to be better adapted to commercial culture. This may be due to the 

 fact that a large number of the sweet cherries have been propagated 

 on Mahaleb stocks and are, therefore, neither long lived nor hardy(.') 

 Field Mazzards are very hardy and when the improved sorts are 

 grafted on Mazzards they will probably succeed much better in a 

 commercial way. 



3 : — The sour varieties have been more profitable, but there is no reason 



why this should be so if above condition (2) is corrected and if 

 the grower will practice up-to-date methods in handling and market-
