Black and Red Currants are among the most profit- 

 able market crops; and by a vigorous summer pruning 

 and early digging become regular bearers ; many records 

 are known of enormous crops being taken — as a rule the 

 Blacks prefer a moist soil, and the Reds a lighter one, but 

 by cultivation they succeed in all soils and situations. 



N.B. — There is considerable confusion among Currants, 

 the same kind bearing several names. Those we adopt are 

 applied here, others in italics being used locally.
