NECTARINES. 
The Nectarine is a most delicious fruit 
and requires the same culture as the 
Peach, from which it differs by having a 
smooth skin like the Plum. Melting qual¬ 
ity of pulp combined with its rich, sweet 
flavor, renders it especially desirable as 
a dessert fruit and for canning. 
Boston. Large; bright yellow, with deep 
red cheek; flesh yellow, particularly rich 
and luscious. A splendid variety for home 
use or for market. Late July.
