F RUIT growing on a commercial scale is one of the country’s profitable industries. No part 
of our great country offers a better opportunity to grow high flavored and beautiful appear¬ 
ing fruits than New England. In the same way the home acre, yes, even the small city 
garden can be made to return crops of fruits well worth all the labor they required. There is also 
the genuine pleasure and delight many of us get and more would if they only knew what they are 
missing, in watching trees grow. One’s interest is kept at the top notch from the blossoming time, 
when fruit trees are bowers of floral grace and beauty, until the ripening colors appear and in the 
full maturity we have the actual luscious fruits of our watchfulness and care, not only beautiful, 
but sure to delight the palate and contribute to the true economy of the household. 
Your plants have been most satisfactory.
