orchard, no matter how large or small, is complete without its propor- 
tion of cherry trees. The trees adapt themselves to almost any soil 
and condition, but do best on a rather dry soil. They commence bear- 
ing very young and keep “ everlastingly at it.” The cherry is one of 
the most profitable market fruits, and by a proper selection of varie- 
ties, fresh, ripe cherries may be had from May 2oth to August 10th. 
Our trees are all on Mahaleb roots and will not sprout. Plant sixteen 
feet apart each wa^'.

The plum, like the pear, attains its greatest perfection on heavy soils. 
The great enemy of the plnm is the curculio, a small, dark brown 
beetle, which punctures the fruit in depositing its eggs, from which is 
hatched the destructive grub, causing the fruit to drop prematurely.
