CHERRIES. 



I The Cherry succeeds on most soils and in nearly all localities throughout this country, but attains its 



\ greatest perfection upon those of a light, gravelly or sandy nature, provided they are in good condition.

Baldwin Cherry— The tree is an upright grower, 

 more inclined to be round than otherwise; a very rank 

 vigorous grower; leaves rather broad; bloom pure white, 

 which turns to a pink color similar to the hydrangea; 

 fruit very large ; almost perfectly round ; very dark, y et 

 almost transparent; flavor slightly sub-acid, yet the 

 sweetest and richest of the Morello type; stems rather 

 large, medium length, more inclined to grow in pairs 

 than clusters. It is remarkable for earliness, vigor, hardi- 

 ness, quality and productiveness. Out of the 8i_,'0 cherry 

 trees I have in bearing it is the most thrifty and beauti- 

 ful tree I have in the lot, and yet has only had the same 

 care and attention as the others. It is a tree to command 

 attention, and is so distinct as to attract comments from 

 many upon seeing it without knowing its superior 

 merits. Originator's description.
