The late Henry Ward Beecher said he regarded it as an indispensable addition to every fruit garden, and that he would rather have a Downing Mulberry tree than a straw- berry THE DWARF JUNEBERRY is of easy culture and is a good substitute for the Swamp Huckleberry, which it resembles in appearance and quality. The fruit is borne in clusters, as shown in the engraving, reddish purple in color, changing to bluish black. In flavor it is of a mild, rich sub-acid, excellent as a dessert fruit or canned. It is extremely hardy, enduring the cold of the far North and the heat of summer without injury. In habit it is similar to the currant, the bushes attaining the same size, and are liter- ally covered with fruit in June. The blos- soms are quite large, are composed of fine white petals, which, with its bright, glossy, dark green foliage, renders it one of the handsomest ornamental shrubs.
