SELECT CHERRIES. 
The Cherry succeeds well on dry soils, and is susceptible of being trained in any form that taste or circum- 
stances may require. 
For orchards, where there is ample room for large trees, and in climates where it is not subject to the bursting 
of the bark, standards with four or five feet of clean trunk are preferable. 
For door-yards, where shade and ornament are taken into account, standards of the free growing sorts, with 
erect habit and large foliage, are the most suitable. 
For fruit gardens, and particularly those of moderate extent, and in localities where the bark of the trunk is 
liable to burst, the pyramidal or conical trees, dwarf or low standards, with two or three feet of trunk, and the 
dwarfs, branching within a foot of the ground, are the most appropriate and profitable. 
We now employ the Mahaleb stock extensively, as we find the trees on it more hardy in many cases, and it 1s 
adapted to a greater variety of soils.
