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, and the Napoleon, a light wax. 
All the others on our list are also good and worthy of a 
place on any table. 
PIE CHERRIES 
(Sour Cherries) 
EARLY RICHMOND. Earliest of the sour, pie varieties. 
Bright red, round medium size, young, prolific bearer. 
‘LARGE MONTMORENCY.§ The leading pie Cherry, 
and most extensively planted of all Cherries. Large, 
midseason, dark red; small seed, firm flesh. Ninety per- 
cent of all the frozen Cherries used for pies are Mont- 
morency. Also just as popular in the home orchard. 
Makes beautiful lawn tree.

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 
a range of soil conditions and climates, but can be success- 
fully grown in many localities where not cultivated at the 
present. 
Sweet Cherries bear heavier and more regularly if cross 
pollination is provided for and planting two or more varie- 
ties is recommended. Pie Cherries are generally self-fruitful. 
New processes of freezing afford this fruit great pos- 
sibilities, as fresh Cherries may now be served throughout 
the year. As a commercial fruit it is coming into its own, 
but if you are not in position to grow Cherries commer- 
cially, why not grow at least enough for home use? You 
who are located in the Deep South or in a low, flat country, 
will not be able to compete with growers in a higher alti- 
tude 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.
