 both flowers

 of testimonials have been 

 received from persons who have 

 tried it, testifying to its easy culture, 

 wonderful productiveness and the enor- 

 mous size and excellent quality of the 

 fruit, some of which weigh as much 

 as three pounds each, and are three 

 times the size of the cut shown 

 herewith. It is claimed by the in- 

 troducers that one of these lemons 

 will go as far as six ordinaiy lemons 

 for all kinds of culinary uses. The 

 tree is a strong, vigorous grower 

 and quite hardy ; may be kept in a 

 pot or box. Set out in Summer and 

 taken indoors in Winter; requires no 

 coddling, not troubled with insects, 

 and will begin to bear very quickly, 

 and as soon as fully established will 

 continue to bear both fiowers and fruit 

 continuously every month in the year. 

 The flowers are pure waxy white and 

 very sweet and like orange blossoms; 

 the leaves are thick glossy green and shine 

 as if varnished. It makes a very handsome 

 3e and is well worth taking care of as it will 

 last a lifetime and grow more valuable every year,
