CHERRIES 



Cherries are more of a home crop than any other 

 fruit. There are few farms in the eastern part of the 

 United States which do not have a few trees. Not 

 only at ripening time do they yield much enjoyment 

 and satisfaction, but in winter also, for canned Cherries 

 are suited for use in many different ways. 



The trees bear large crops without seeming to need 

 much care. They certainly thrive with less work put 

 on them than any other fruit. The newer varieties far 

 surpass the common sorts. Where they are grown 



been 



commercially some wonderful results have 

 achieved in improving the size and flavor. 



Our trees are the same, as far as climate and con- 

 ditions will permit, as those planted in Colorado and 

 California, where Cherries as large as Walnuts are 

 grown — and profits as big as with peaches and apples. 

 Sour Cherries especially are money makers in commer- 

 cial orcharding. The man who plants them now will get 

 the benefit of an increasing demand. We particularly 

 recommend Early Richmond and Montmorency.
