The Market. 



Sunshine the last ten days caused 

 stock to be more abundant. Business 

 has slumped, owinR to the nearness 

 of Easter, but the dealers are cleaning 

 up fairly well each day. Pot plants and 

 bulbous stock arc moving well.

 ing on for Easter, the meeting was called

LEAF FROM EDIBLE FRUIT. 



Will you kindly tell me the name of 

 the idaiit from which came the leaf I 

 am sending vou? The seed was sent by 

 a friend in California. The plants are 

 now about two feet high and are grow- 

 ing ra])idly. F. C. Ind. 



The leaf sent is of the loquat, Erio- 

 botrva japonica. This is a most use- 

 ful fruit, being hardy in southern Cali- 

 fornia, but needing the protection of a 

 greenhouse in the middle west. To bear 

 fruit it requires a large space, such as 

 in a conservatory, but it is an attractive 

 plant when grown only for the foliage. 

 In California the fruit ripens in .\pril 

 and when thoroughly ripe is delicious 

 in flavor. It is also used for making a 

 superior .ielly. It is easily grown from 

 seed, which should be planted soon after 

 the fruit ripens, as it quickly loses its 

 eerminating power if kept dry.
