Hardy Persimmon (Diospyros) 
Our native “forgotten man” of the fruit 
trees. Man and beast alike eat it avidly. 
Seedlings bear irregularly, and too late, 
but— 
Early Golden—and other grafted early 
fruiting American varieties bear early 
enough to be useful in Zone VI. We offer 
5 to 6 ft. grafted $2.35 each; $23.50 doz. 
Dried, the fruit resembles figs, but not 
so rich and cloying. There are Oriental 
Persimmons, but not hardy in the north.

Needs only an acid soil 
Blueberries require an acid soil con- 
taining peat or other rotted vegetable 
matter. They need a moderate supply of 
soil-moisture, and good drainage so that 
the roots can get air during the growing 
season. 
Set the plants in beds 6 feet apart one 
way and 4 to 5 feet the other way. Two 
varieties should be included in every 
planting, as an exchange of pollen is nec- 
essary to produce good crops of berries. 
Disease-free—no spraying] 
The second year remove the flower- 
buds in order to throw the full strength 
of the plants into the top and roots. The 
third summer the flower-buds may be 
left and the plants should produce a good 
crop of fruit.
