Pomegranates 
The Pomegranate seems to have been cre- 
ated especially for our dry climate. It suc- 
ceeds in any soil and bears regularly an abund- 
ance of the most refreshing fruit. 
Little trouble is required for its culture. It 
is always free from all diseases, and grows in 
any deserted corner of the garden where no 
other fruit succeeds. The fruit is very sweet 
and refreshing, and ripens during August and 
September. 
Old Favorite — Is the best of all the fruiting 
pomegranates. I call it Old Favorite because 
it has been grown here at New Braunfels for 
at least fifty years, and it has been proven to 
be far superior to all the other fruiting kinds

Oranges 
Satsuma — Experience has taught us that 
orange culture here for a profit is a failure. A 
good many of our customers made large in- 
vestments in orange orchards in Texas, and 
on account of frost have not realized anything 
on their investments, and we are growing only 
a few for such customers who want them and 
can protect them in winter. One-year-old, 75 
cents each, $8.00 per dozen. 
Lemons

bearing variety. On a plat six feet high, not 
less than 90 lemons were growing at a single 
time. Fruit has been taken from this tree

make twelve lemon pies from one lemon. Will
