New or Noteworthy Fruits 
Part II. 
Ida 0 (terry. —This is an old sort, long 
ago tried and discarded by commercial 
growers of cherries, for the reason that 
the fruitfi are a little too soft for ship¬ 
ping. and the crop does not ripen evenly. 
It has two characters, however, that.com¬ 
mend it to all who want a sweet cherry 
in regions a little too cold for the average 
variety of this fruit. Out of more than 
100 varieties of cherries on the grounds 
of tin* Geneva Station, Ida lias best with¬ 
stood the two severe freezes of the past 
few years. Even the buds have withstood 
the cold, so the trees have borne a full 
crop when other varieties were barren. 
The second outstanding character is that 
the trees are remarkably vigorous, attain¬ 
ing great size. In productiveness the 
tree is quite equal to that of any of the 
standard varieties. Ida. therefore, is 
named as among the best of the sweet 
cherries for the home plantation. 
Ontario Grape. —The Ontario grape is 
a cross between Winched and Oianmnd.

Orchard I’ianting Hoard 
originating at the Geneva Experiment 
Station. It promises to take a place in 
the viticulture of the country, both as a 
commercial sort and for the home planta¬ 
tion, because of extreme earliness. The 
vines are more vigorous and more pro¬ 
ductive. and hunches and berries yire 
larger than those of either Winched or 
Diamond. The fruits are possibly a little 
too soft for distant shipment. In color 
and flavor the fruit very much resembled 
that of Winched. 
Portland Grape. —The Portland grape 
is another promising early white grape 
from the Geneva Station, having as its 
parents Champion and I.utie. neither of 
which, by the way. are white, and both 
of which are far inferior in quality to 
the offspring. Bunches and berries of 
Portland are of fair size and in flavor 
the fruits are not surpassed by any other 
early sort. It is being sent out as a can¬ 
didate for an early shipping grape. The 
vines are vigorous and productive and re¬ 
markably free from fungous diseases. 
I Io.nf.yswf.et Kaspheruy.—T he Iloney- 
sweet raspberry originated in 1012 as a 
chance seedling at Macedon. X. 5’. The 
originator now lias a plantation of six 
acres, which impresses everyone who has 
seen it with the remarkable vigor and 
productiveness of the plants. The rasp¬ 
berries are of large size and most excel¬ 
lent in quality. Honey.sweet gives pro¬ 
mise of being a most excellent black rasp¬ 
berry. 
Ontario IIed Raspberry. —This variety 
has been described in Tin: R. X.-Y. be¬ 
fore, and is now mentioned only to say 
that it is making a most favorable im-

How to Plant an Orchard

I wish to set one acre of ground to apple 
trees, and use peach trees as tillers. How 
far apart should the apple trees be? Tell

You'll Have to Hustle 
It’s going to be garden making time before you know it, 
and if you intend to have any garden this year it is time 
for you to be getting busy. First thing you know it will be a pretty day, 
gras3 getting green, maple buds swelling, hens singing in the yard, and 
you with no garden seed ready. 
You’ll do some tall hustling then, dig out the old seed can, find 
nothing there worth planting, run to the store and buy whatever they 
happen to have left, stuff that has been kicking around the country no 
knowing how long. 
You know what sort of garden you’ll have then. And it will serve 
you right too. A garden, like anything else, must be planned and pre¬ 
pared for in advance, and the main thing, next to good soil, is good fresh 
seed of the right varieties. 
I am really better at gardening than letter writing, but I’ll be glad to 
help you any way I can with your garden plans, and help you choose the 
right varieties for your soil and climate. 
My Seed Catalog 
It’s really a garden book; more to help you make garden than to sell 
seeds. I try to answer the very questions you would be asking in letters. 
I have tried to tell you the real truth about seeds and varieties and soils 
and fertilizers and so on, without any more hot air and exaggeration than 
was absolutely necessary. 
Of course there are lots of catalogs, you probably have a house full 
of them already. Some good, some tiresome and some pretty windy. But 
I would like to have you • mine. I believayou would like it, and find 
it rather restful. 
Seed Sense Free 
For several years I have been printing a little seed and garden magazine fr-?S 
for my customers, partly just for the fun of it, partly because I can be of real help, 
and to get acquainted and make them acquainted with us and our business. 
If is full of garden gossip and nonsense, and pictures of my kids and yours. 
And the spotted pigs, and the latest prices of clover seed and everything under 
the sun but politics and war news. I will send you a free copy with the catalog if 
you want it. I think you would enjoy it. 
But All Joking Aside 
It is time to make garden, and I believe I can do you some good in the seed 
line. We have all kinds of seeds and plants and seed corn and grass seed and 
about anything you want. Advice, such as it is, is free, also samples of anything 
you are interested in and the catalog and Seed Sense are, ofcourse, free too. Write 
for them. There’s plenty of time if you hurry.
