Cherries 



In these days of apparent specialized fruit growing, cherries seem to have been 

 neglected. Yet it is safe to say that no fruit will find a more ready market or bring 

 in a larger return on the money invested. The fact that cherry trees can be used 

 for ornamental as well as productive purpases greatly increases their possibilities or 

 the market. Any well-drained soil will be found to be adapted to the sturdy growth 

 of cherry trees. Our cherries are all budded on imported French stocks and these 

 form a fibrous root which reduces considerably the loss in planting. We believe that 

 no fruit will bring greater profits, as the cherry will bear a fair crop two or three 

 years after planting and requires very little care and attention. We have a good as- 

 sortment of varieties, but would especially recommend the Large Montmorency for 

 commercial planting, as it bears enormous crops and the canning factories pay a 

 higher price for it than they do for any other sour variety.
