Pearl. CURRANTS. Should be planted in good, very fertile soil, with liberal manuring, and the tops should be cut back nearly to the crown, al- lowing only three or four canes to grow the first vear. Prune more or less every year to get rid of the old wood and keep the bushes open. Currant worms can be destroyed by white hellibore, one ounce to three gallons of water, and applied with a sprinkling can. Be sure to use the remedy as soon as, or before the worms appear. Plant same as Gooseberries. Fay's Prolific—The best currant yet in- troduced; berries large, uniform in size, with long stems, good flavor, and is very produc- tive and easy to pick. President Wilder— Introducersays : Wil- der will make twice as much wood as will Fay's Prolific, while setting as large fruit with double and triple the quantity, com- bines more good qualities than any Red Currant he has ever fruited. It is large, very productive, sweet and hangs a long time on the bushes in fine condition after fully ripe. Crandall—Distinct from the European black varieties and without their odor; won- derfully productive, large size, easily picked and will keep longer and ship farther than any other small fruit.
