Delicious Fruits 
'“p'HE thrifty housewife has long known the savings made when fruits are grown at 
* home. There is something about home grown fruit that is different. It tastes better 
than any other. For their ornamental qualities alone, fruit trees are worth while. The 
next best thing to eating berries right off the vine is to have them served to you 
directly after picking.
