Select Cherries — Continued 
death. We have some old Early Richmond trees In our orchard which have 
not failed to produce a fu.l crop in the last ten years. We cannot, in reason, 
expect them to keep this up much longer. Cherries will thrive on any good, 
well .".rained upland. We have an unusually large stock of the leading 
varieties of cherry, mostly two years old, and in all grades and sizes up to 
six and seven feet, mostly budded on the Mahaleb stock; they are of thrifty 
growth and smooth. We have quite a number of new varieties on trial and 
in «ue time doubt. ess will have something good to offer. The following de- 
scribed varieties we have found to be the best, out of a long list we have had 
experience with: 
Eurly Richmond.
