Persimmon Tree in Bearing 



This shows an improved variety of persimmon in full 



bearing. Mr. Burbank suggests that great improvement mag be 



wrought bg combining the Japanese and the American varieties. At 



first the Japanese is incomparablg superior, the American per* 



Simmon being very little prized in the regions where it 



grows. Through combination and selective breeding a 



really notable orchard fruit should be developed.
