PERSICA, continued 
Persica, Double Pink, White, and Crimson. During 
March these trees are covered with a mass of beauti¬ 
fully formed and highly colored flowers. These trees 
can not be too highly recommended for spring blos¬ 
soming. Perfectly hardy, and will thrive on any soil 
in which other Peaches will grow. 
Pistacia 
Pistacia Chinensis (Chinese Pistache). A hardy 
Pistache, introduced into America from northern 
China by the agricultural explorer, Frank N. Meyer. 
This beautiful tree produces small Pistache nuts 
and is valuable as a stock on which to grow the true 
Pistache nuts of commerce (Pistacia vera). In this 
latitude it will make a fine shade tree. It is of rapid 
growth and the foliage is most attractive, especially 
in the late fall, when it assumes various tones of 
red, crimson and bronze. For landscape effect it is 
most pleasing. each

PopillllS. The Poplar 
Populus Caroliniensis (Carolina Poplar). A rapid¬ 
growing native tree of upright growth. A very 
popular shade tree, and widely planted. After the 
tree has attained a height of 15 to 20 feet, it is ad¬ 
visable to cut the leader. This will cause the tree to 
make a spreading head. The Carolina Poplar re 
sembles the Cottonwood, but is quite distinct.

“Fruitland Mixture” Lawn Grass is the result of ten years' 
experimenting with various grasses. This mixture is prac¬ 
tically evergreen, for it is composed of only such grasses as 
have shown the best heat- and drought-resisting qualities.
