CHERRIES. 



Plant Hea?'ts atid Bigari'eaics 20 feet apart each ivay ; Dukes and Morellos 12 to 75 feet. 



Cherries will not succeed on wet soil. The class Hearts and Bigarreaus or " sweet cherries " are 

 even more unlike the class Duke and Morellos or " sour cherries'" in habit of tree and growth than in 

 fruit. The trees of the sweet class are to be preferred for shade, for which purpose they are excellent. 

 First class, each, 40c.; doz.. 54.00.

DIKEMAN. 



This is a black cherry of the the Bigarreau type, 

 and ripens at a tmie when Sweet Cherries are very 

 scarce; hence commands good prices in market. 

 It is unexcelled as a producer; fruit very firm, 

 shipping and keeping so remarkably well that 

 these properties will make it a favorite among 



growers. In color, sweetness and size we know of 

 nothing to compare with it. The original tree is 

 said to produce from 10 to 12 bushels of fruit in a 

 season. The fruit was on exhibition at the New 

 York State Fair, attracting the attention and admi- 

 ration of all. About the best Cherr>' introduced in 

 many years. First class, each, 60c.; doz., $6.00.

CENTENNIAL. 



The most remarkable characteristic of this superb 

 Cherry is its wonderful firmness of flesh; being so 

 enduring in texture that it remains in good condi- 

 tion for an unusually long time after gathered. In 

 addition to this valuable property the fruit is of im- 

 mense size, a beautiful amber, shaded red, with 



very firm, yet tender, flesh; sweet, rich and lus- 

 cious. It resembles its parent, Napoleon Bigar- 

 reau, in appearance, but is much larger, firmer and 

 finer in quality. The tree is a good grower, straight 

 and handsome, a regular and heavy annual bearer. 

 Ripens in mid-season. First class, each, 60c. ; doz., 

 $6.00.
