JYUeker Cherry t:f 6 T ation 
ORIGINATED in New Haven and sent out only by us. The quality 
of the fruit is the ideal Oxheart type, meaty, sweet and juicy, com- 
bined with its own peculiarly agreeable flavor. Color when fully 
ripe is a rich yellow, shading to a brilliant red on the sunny side. For shape 
and size see illustration. An important feature of this new cherry is its 
productiveness and annual bearing habit, not having failed to produce a 
heavy crop yearly since coming into bearing. The fruit does not decay 
before maturity — a fatal weakness of many of the older sorts. Season of 
ripening is July 5th to ioth at New Haven. A limited number only of nice 
trees to offer of this new cherry.

Hsparagus* 
THIS luscious and healthful vegetable can be planted to advantage even 
in the small city garden, and certainly where the garden area is not 
so restricted, an asparagus bed is likely to yield more for the space 
and care required than almost any other vegetable. A planting once estab- 
lished remains for years, a source of yearly supply. Make the ground very 
rich at planting time and fertilize freely each season. Plant one foot apart 
each way for a small garden bed or border. Two or three feet apart in 
the open field.
