Marsh Seedless Grapefruit, continued 
than all other varieties except McCarty, which is eqiialK 
late. The fruit is very handsome in appearance, with 
smooth yellow skin. The (piality is fine, a great favorite 
in the markets, and always commands good prices. It is 
becoming known as a distinct variety, and sells, not simply 
as (Grapefruit, but under its own name. Like all other’ 
varieties of Grapefruit which we grow and recom¬ 
mend for commercial [jlanting, Marsh Seedless 
fruits run in the sizes most desired by the fruit trade. 
'I he tree makes a low, dense, spreading head, often 
measuring more across the s[)rcad of the branches than 
it does in height. It bears heavy, regular crops, in 
every well-balanced planting. Marsh Seedless should 
be given a liberal place. 
McCarty Grapefruit 
Many years ago the McCarty (Grapefruit, an 
Indian River variety named after the late Mr. C. 
T. McCarty, attracted our attention. After keci)ing 
it under observation for several years, we decided to 
]woj)agate it. It possesses in a marked degree the dis¬ 
tinctive habit of [)roducing its fruits singly instead of in 
bunches or clusters. 'I'his feature, collided with its late 
ripening jjeriod and its very high (luality have so im¬ 
pressed us with Its merits that we have come to regard Mc- 
( arty as one of the finest Grapefruits grown in h'lorida 
today. 
Because

not grow in clusters, the fruit is very 
unilorm in size and shape, and very 
free from those blemishes caused by 
clustering, such as extensive scale injury and 
misshapen fruits. We believe this variet>' is not 
surpassed by any other as a regular, uniform 
bearer. The fruit is of best market size, light, 
waxy yellow in color, with skin of beautiful tex¬ 
ture. It IS distinctly a fancy fruit; has a perfect 
(jrapefruit Ilavor and the flesh is melting, free 
from fiber and rag when properly grown. 
Triumph Grapefruit 
Triumph Grapefruit 
There is always a demand for an early Graj^e- 
fruit. particularly for home use. or for local 
market. Those varieties which ripen in midsea¬ 
son or later do not develoi) sufficient juice early 
in the season to make them satisfactory at that 
time. The Triumph Grapefruit fills the place of 
an early fruit better than any other variety witli 
which we are acciuainted. It is in good eating 
condition in November and has a season of 
abinit eight weeks depending upon the stock on 
which it is propagated and the citrus section 
where grown. It is a very prolific sort and the
