PERSIMMON 
A distinct fruit of the South, which succeeds in practically 
all sections where cotton is grown. The trees have beautiful 
glossy foliage, which makes them very attractive, and the 
gorgeous colored fruits are both delicious and beautiful. 
Oriental Persimmon. Bears much larger fruit than the 
American type. The flavor of the ripe fruit is sweet, rich, 
and mellow and well worth waiting for the ripe stage. If 
the fruit is harvested before it is touched by frost, and 
house-ripened, the quality becomes greatly improved. The 
seedless pulp can be eaten fresh or made into delicious 
spicy cake or steamed pudding.

VICTORIA RHUBARB 
An easily grown perennial plant. The Giant Victoria red 
is the variety that everyone likes so well. Fine quality 
stalks, extra large, roots extra strong. Set plants two to 
three feet apart and allow to grow a season before pulling 
the stalks for cooking. Rhubarb, with its flavor of the spring- 
time, is a valuable aid to the action of the gastric juices, 
and adds novelty to the bill of fare; has the good points of 
a fruit, and combines deliciously as a dessert or conserve.

vegetables. Everyone should have it fresh from their own 
garden. It is adaptable to nearly any soil, but grows best 
in rich sandy loam. Ease of production, annual crops, and 
high market prices combine for growers’ success of this item. ©
