THE-- 
Che Pomona Currant 
The best specialty 
for the Agents. 
Why ? Because it 
is the best money 
maker for the peo¬ 
ple to plant. It is 
best in quality. Its 
returns come in the 
quickest and surest. 
These being the 
qualities the plant¬ 
er is after, he buys 
it. With hardly an 
exception, though 
thoroughly tested 
in the leading sec¬ 
tions and beside the new highly 
praised and older sorts has the 
POMONA proven its superiority 
in quality, vigor and productive¬ 
ness, showing it to have no su¬ 
perior, if an equal, for profit to 
planter, and general adaptability 
to different sections. 
One grower in 1898 picked 
from 13 acres of Pomona, 3 to 5 
yr. set, over 5000 24 qt. cases, 
realizing a net profit of over $180 
per acre. Compare this with 
what you have realized for your 
fruit or from crops grown under 
ordinary field culture.
