QUINCES 
The Quince is of late attracting a sjood deal of attention as a market fruit. 
Scarcely any fruit will pay better in the orchard. The tree is hardy and 
compact in growth, requiring but little space; productive, gives regular 
crops, and comes early into bearing. The fruit is much sought after for 
canning for winter use. \A'hen put up in the proportion of about one quart 
of Quines to four quarts of other fruit, imparts a delicious flavor. 
Price, Orange and Champion, nice plants, 35c. each. 
Str awberries 
First of all in June comes the delicious and wholesome Strawberry, requir. 
ing if for family use, only a .small plot of ground to produce all the family 
can consume. If engaged in raising for market, this branch of small fruits 
will probably bring as good returns as any class of small fruits grown. 
Strawberries can be grown on a great variety of soils. Grounds should be 
deeply and thoroughly worked, and surface kept clear of weeds, to produce 
the best results. Plant in rows two feet by one, or three by one, if for garden 
or hill culture, or four by one for matted rows in field culture. Blossoms of 
all varieties mentioned are bi-se.Kual or perfect (having both stamens and 
pistils within the same flower), except those marked P, which have no 
stamens, and are called imperfect or pistillate and should be planted with 
bi-sexual or perfect flowering sorts to be made fruitful. Strawberry plants 
should be shipped by express.
