preserves, or eating from the hand; season of ripen- 
ing being after all otiiers are g*)ne. In flavor it is 
akin to the sweet cherries, and, has no equal in the 
line of pitted fruits, and is conceded superior to .any 
fruit grown in this section. It h.as the ijcst system 
of roots of any shrub or tree we have ever planted , 
which accounts for the wonderful productiveness 
of plants at such an early age. Mailing size,

Improved Dwarf Juneberry. ^''^aSve* of 
Alaska, and therclore of the most iron-clad hardiness. It is 
a quick grower, forming dense clumps of bushes which bloom 
and hear heavily wMien only one or two feet in height. The 
berries are the size of ordinary cherries, Ijcing green in an un- 
ripe state, changing to bright scarlet, and, when fullv ripe, to 
a dark purple blue, and as the three colors hang in clusters 
upon a hush they present a most charming ;iud appetizing 
sight. After the berry is fully ripe it will keep on the bnsh in 
perfect condition for two or three weeks without decaying or 
dropping. It is exceedingly sweet and has a peeulia'rlv rich 
and luscious flavor. Aside from its value as a fruit it is one 
of the most showy flowering shrubs, as it blooms very e.arly 
in the spring — before leaves start — and every slem and branch 
of the bush is a solid wreath of delicate featherv whiteness, so 
numerous are the flowers, ijc each. $1.50 per doz. postpaid
