YELLOW SPANISH — June. An inch 
in diameter; pale yellow; delicious. One 
of the finest for canning, and makes a 
beautiful appearance in jars. The tree is 
a thrifty and vigorous grower, yielding 
abundant crops annually. It is, without 
exception, the best Heart Cherry grown, 
and most profitable to the commercial 
orchardist. 
NAPOLEON (Royal Ann) —The best 
quality and most profitable yellow sweet 
cherry. An attractive yellow with bright 
red cheek. Large size, sweet, heart- 
shaped. Flesh very firm, juicy and deli¬ 
cious. Tree a vigorous upright grower 
and bears heavy crops. We highly recom¬ 
mend Napoleon for commercial planting, 
and for home use. 
BLACK TARTARIAN — June. The 
largest of the Sweet Cherries and one 
of the very best for dessert. The fruit is 
purplish black, with juicy, sweet, mild, 
pleasant, tender flesh. The tree is strong¬ 
growing and vigorous and produces im¬ 
mense crops every year, the fruit growing 
in huge clusters, making it easy to pick. 
This variety is one of the most profitable 
to grow; it is always in demand and 
brings the best prices. 
WINDSOR — Hardy, prolific, large; 
reddish brown, fine quality, rich and 
juicy; fine for preserving or canning. July. 
Currants 
Wilder (President Wilder) 
Ripen just before straw¬ 
berries are gone, continuing 
in prime order for several weeks. 
There is no more useful nor 
productive fruit than the 
Currant, and it is among the 
easiest to cultivate. 
Plant in rows 5 feet apart 
each way, if practicable. Light 
and air will do as much to 
increase the value of Currant 
bushes as with other plants. 
Keep the ground mellow, free 
from weeds and in a good 
state of fertility, and prune 
freely every spring. Should 
the Currant worm appear, dust 
a little white hellebore powder 
from a small, coarse bag over 
the bushes when the leaves 
are damp. In some instances 
it may be necessary to repeat 
this process, but the trouble 
and expense of exterminating 
the worms is trifling if the powder is applied as soon as the worms appear. 
Price of all Varieties of Currant Bushes 
10 cents each; 75 cents per dozen; $4.00 per hundred; 
$30.00 per thousand
