HARRISON'S NURSERIES, BERLIN, MD. 



THE QUINCE. 



The Quince is a well-known hardy tree of small size, crooked branches and a spreading 

 bushy head. It seems to be at home along- the seashore, where the roots can penetrate living? 

 salt water. While it does well iu nearly every soil, it will respond to a liberal dressing- of 

 manure each year. We also recommend about a quart of salt around the root of each tree. The 

 fruit is very valuable for home and market and for canning, preserving and flavoring other 

 fruits.
