^JAPAN PERSIMMON. 



This new valuable frnit has been fruited for the last few years. Most varieties are of ex- 

 cellent quality; twice and three times as large as the native kind; very attractive when the fruit 

 i.s ripe. I had some which weighed a pound, very sweet and of a most delicious flavor. Ar they 

 ;iie of easy culture and do well here, it is a profitable fruit to gi'ow. 



Assorted named varieties. Price, 50c. each; $5.00 per dozen, large size.-
