DUKE AND MORELLO CHERRIES. 23 Late Duke—This fine cherry should be in every collection. Fruit large, obtuse heart- shaped, rich dark red color; tender, juicy, sub-acid. Last of July. Lieb—A new Morello variety from Northern Illinois; resembles Early Richmond, but a little later, and much prized in the northwest for its large size and extreme hardiness. Louis Phillippe—Extra hardy; a vigorous grower and very productive; large size; rich dark red; flesh red, tender, juicy, with mild sub-acid flavor. July. Lutovka—Tree of Morello type, a vigorous grower, young branches rather slender j fruit firm, good quality, sprightly acid; as large as English Morello or larger, more nearly round, very similar to that variety in color, but the flesh is not so dark as that of English Morello; clings tenaciously to the long stem. So far as tested the tree has proved to be very productive, ripening its fruit as late as, or later than the English Morello. May Duke—An old, well known, excellent variety; large; dark red; juicy, sub-acid, rich. Tree hardy, vigorous and fruitful; ripens over a long period; fine for dwarfs and pyramids. Middle of June. Montmorency, Large—Tree very hardy and an immense bearer; commences to fruit while young, and is loaded annually thereafter with fine crops. Fruit very large,fine flavor, and of bright, clear, shining red; valuable everywhere; a week later than Early Richmond. The finest acid cherry. Morello, English—Large; dark red; nearly black; tender, juicy, acid, rich. Tree dwarf and slender; makes a fine bush on the Mahaleb. If trained on a north wall it may be in use all the month of August. Valuable. Olivet—This variety is of the greatest value
