Fruits 
Fruits, as a whole, do not greatly involve the or¬ 
namental aspect of the average landscape, since 
very little fruit is grown on the average home- 
grounds. The Tree Fruits are, however, of Major 
Structural importance, and so a brief word regard¬ 
ing them is not out of place. 
Many of the Tree Fruits may be substituted 
for some of the strictly ornamental trees, but in 
so doing care should be taken to see that their 
placing does not detract from the landscape. Many 
of them bear a profusion of beautiful flowers and 
are a distinct addition to the beauty of the home 
landscape, except in the fall, when falling Iruits, 
unless promptly tended to, may mar appearances. 
The Small Fruits rarely need consideration from 
an esthetic point of view since they are usually 
in some far corner, hidden from general view by 
enclosure or border plantings.

August. Fruit 1 Y 2 inch, oval; dark bright red; 
firm, of perfect texture; flavor particularly clean, 
clear, and distinctive. This is undoubtedly the 
finest variety for jelly; the fruit is so high in 
pectin that it jells unfailingly and gives the 
greatest yield of jelly per bushel of fruit used.
