ELL W ANGER & BARRY'S

 the Elkhorn, or Tradescant's Black nevertheless quite distinct; ripens three or four days after that 

 variety ; flesh remarkably firm and of fine quality. Tree hardy and very prolific. A very valuable late variety 

 for market and for family use. 50c. (See cut.) 



Yellow Spanish— Large ; pale yellow, with a bright red cheek in the sun ; flesh firm, juicy and delicious ; one of the 

 best, most beautiful and popular of all light-colored cherries. Tree erect, vigorous and productive. End of 

 June. 50c. 



DUKE AND MORELLO CHERRIES. 



These two classes of cherries are very distinct from the preceding. The trees are of smaller size, and grow more 

 slowly ; the leaves are thicker and more erect, and of a deeper green. The fruit is generally round, and in color 

 varying from light red to dark brown. 



The Dukes have stout, erect branches usually, and some of them, like Heine Hortense, quite sweet fruit ; while 

 the Morellos have slender, spreading branches, and acid fruit invariably. These two classes are peculiarly appro- 

 priate for dwarfs and pyramids, on the Mahaleb stock, and their hardiness renders them well worthy of attention 

 in localities where the Heart and Bigarreau are too tender. 



Arch Duke— Large ; bright red, but becomes very dark when fully ripe ; flesh melting, juicy, rich, sub-acid. Tree 

 rather more vigorous and upright than the May Duke : hardy and prolific. Ripe first and second weeks in July. 

 50c. 



Belle Magnifique- A magnificent, large, red, late cherry, excellent for cooking and tine for table when fully ripe ; 



rather acid, tender, juicy and rich. Tree a slow grower, but a most profuse bearer ; makes a fine dwarf or 



pyramid on the Mahaleb. Last of July. "Very valuable. 50c. 

 Early Richmond— An early red, acid cherry ; very valuable for cooking early in the season. Ripens through June. 



Tree a. free grower, hardy, healthy and very productive. 50c. 

 Empress Eugenie — Large, dark red ; flesh juicy, rich ; tree robust, and moderately productive. 50e. 

 Late Duke— Large ; light red ; late and excellent. Tree.mbusf, and makes a nice dwarf or pyramid. End of July. 



Valuable. 50c. 



May Duke— An old, well-known, excellent variety ; large ; dark red ; juicy, sub-acid, rich. Tree hardy, vigorous 

 and fruitful ; ripens a long time in succession ; fine for dwarfs and pyramids. Middle of June. 50c. 



Montmorency Large Fruited— Fruit large and one of the finest flavored in this class ; tree a free grower, hardy 

 and prolific. 50c. 



Montmorency Ordinaire — A beautiful, large, red, acid cherry ; larger and finer than Early Richmond, and fully 

 ten days later, ripening with Tradescants. Being extraordinarily prolific and very hardy, it can be recom- 

 mended as a variety of great value. Valuable for canning and preserving. Tree a free, grower. 50c. 



Morello English— Large ; dark red, nearly black ; tender, juicy, acid, rich. Tree dwarf and slender ; makes a fine 

 bush on the Mahaleb. If trained on a north wall, it may be in use all the month of August. Valuable. 50c.

 cious. Tree vigorous and bears well ; makes a beautiful pyramid. 50c.

SELECT PLUMS. 



STANDARD PLUM TREES. 



These are generally five to six feet in height, and, like all the stone fruits, should have heads as low as possible. 



DWARF PLUM TREES. 



These are adapted to garden culture. The trees furnished by us for this purpose are from two to tnree feet in 

 height. 



DISEASES AND ENEMIES OF THE PLUM. 



The prevalence of the disease of the Plum, commonly called the " black knot," and of the insect known as the 

 curculio, has of late discouraged people generally from giving to the Plum its merited share of attention. It is not 

 to be denied that these are obstacles of considerable magnitude to indifferent, slovenly cultivators; but we are
