—Cherries 
The Cherry has always been one of the most delicious 
fruits, but has never been as extensively grown as the 
Apple and Peach. Unfortunately, it is not adapted to as 
wide arange of soil conditions and climates, but can be suc- 
cessfully grown in many localities where not cultivated 
at the present. 

New processes of freezing fruit. afford the Cherry 
great possibilities, making it possible to serve fresh 
Cherries throughout the year. As a commercial fruit, 
the Cherry is coming into its own, but if you are not 
in position to grow Cherries commercially, why not 
grow at least enough for home use? If you are lo- 
cated in the Deep South or in a low, flat country, you 
will: not be able to compete with the growers in a 
higher altitude and cooler climate, but by careful 
selection of varieties and attention, you should be able 
to grow Cherries for home use, especially the Large 
Montmorency, the most popular pie variety. 
Two Distinct Classes—the Sours and Sweets. 
The Sours are used chiefly for pies, while the Sweets 
have many uses. Outstanding among the Sweets is the 
Greenwood, a dark red, sweet variety. All the others 
on our list are also good and worthy of a place on 
any table. 
SOUR CHERRIES 
EARLY RICHMOND. Earliest of the sour, pie varieties. 
Bright red, round medium size, early and prolific bearer. 
LARGE MONTMORENCY. The leading sour Cherry, 
and the most extensively planted of all Cherries. Large, 
midseason, dark red; small seed, firm flesh. A large per- SWEE / ( HERRIES 
cent of all the frozen Cherries used for pies are Mont- 
morency which is also just as popular in the home orchard. 
STANDARD VARIETIES 
BING. A large, firm, almost black; excellent shipper. Adapted to a wide range 
of soils and climates. Very hardy. Midseason. 
BLACK TARTARIAN. Well known dark, purplish black. Large, firm, good

ties. Good shipper. Late. 
NAPOLEON. The most extensively planted of the Wax Cherries, ripening two 
weeks later than Governor Wood, larger and better shipper. Beautiful golden 
background, bright red cheek. 


Prize Super Varieties of Sweet Cherries 
GREENWOOD. Enormous, mahogany red, sweet fruit; small seed. Firm 
and excellent shipper, as well as an ideal Cherry for roadside stands and 
home use. Trees are vigorous growers and prolific bearers. Apparently 
adapted to a wide range of soils and can be grown with a minimum amount 
of attention; however, it responds well to modern cultural practices. 
& AUGUST SUPREME. A new red, Sweet Cherry ripening a month after 
the standard varieties have been harvested, extending the Cherry season. 
. SWEET SEPTEMBER. One of the few Cherries to be honored witha U.S. 
Patent and the only Fall Cherry known. Sweet September ripens onemonth 
later than August Supreme, making possible fresh Cherries from mid- 
May until mid-September. Medium size, bright red, firm and sweet.
