REID'S NURSERIES, BRIDGEPORT, OHIO CHOICE QUINCES AND APRICOTS QUINCES The Quince is attracting attention as a market fruit. The tree is hardy and compact in growth, requires little space, is productive, gives regular crops, and comes early into bearing. The fruit is much sought after for canning for winter use. It nourishes in any good garden soil, which should be kept mellow and well enriched. Prune off all the dead and surplus branches, and thin out the fruit if bearing too freely. Do not neglect your Quince trees; it pays well to give them your attention. THE BOURGEAT QUINCE. We believe this to be one of the finest Quinces ever offered. Of the best quality, tender; ripens right after the Orange, and keeps till past midwinter. We had fine Quinces of this variety in February and March of last yean The fruit is very large, rich golden color; smooth, |g velvety skin, and has so far proved to be fr«e from leaf- gj blight, not having blighted in 10 years, the leaves keeping green until killed by frost. Makes a fine tree, like pears and plums. Three bushels of fruit have been gathered from a 10-year old tree. TVe believe this variety will give the best satisfaction wherever grown.
