POMEGRANATES 
The Pomegranate is quite hardy throughout the Gulf states; it is a large shrub or small tree, 
very graceful in form and foliage, producing a profusion of strikingly brilliant and lovely scarlet 
flowers; it bears young, is prolific, and the fruit possesses a fresh crispness, delicacy and spright¬ 
liness of flavor much esteemed by all who know it. It should be more generally planted.

While Mulberries are of little value for commercial purposes or table use, there are never¬ 
theless several purposes for which they are admirably suited and of decided value. They form 
an economic food for poultry and swine, and for tolling birds away from other fruits there is 
nothing else so effective.
