to be the long-looked for Hardy Sweet Cherry. Its Originator reports: “Thermom¬

degrees below but this sweet cherry has NEVER MISSED A CROP!’’ 
The tree is remarkably strong grower, reg¬ 
ular and heavy bearer, succeeds splendidly 
in any ordinary well-drained soil. 
Gold Cherries Fool the Birds 
The famous Benj. Wallace Douglas, Orchard- 
ist and Author, declared in a recent article: 
“Stark Gold Cherry is the outstanding cherry 
for the home orchard. Furthermore, the birds 
do not eat them. Evidently they think from 
the color that the fruit is not ripe enough 
to eat.” This Bird Proof Cherry is a wonder. 
-King of ALL Tart Cherries

American Canning Cherry. Tree hardy,
