This has not come up to its promise of a year ago, and it is evident that here in South Florida we will have to be content with an occa- sional crop. The tree continues healthy and vigorous, but it needs a sharp frost now and then to make them fruit. Botaii, Chabot, Masu, and Longfruit. Are of the same general character as the above.

Price, 40 cents each, per dozen, $25 per 100. Pyrus ? The
