Fay's Prolific—As compared with Cherry, is equal in size and flavor, contains less acid, bunches long and prolific. A valuable variety. I^ee'S Prolific—Black. Larger than Black Naples, and more productive. Best of the blacks. North. Star—This new currant was sent to us from Minnesota. Its a remarkable strong, robust grower, and as the ability of currants to bear fruit is measured by the length of the newfruiting wood annually produced, this variety heads the list for productiveness, the bunches are of the very largest size ; in flavor and quality the flavor is unsurpassed by any other sort. We recommend the North Star above all other currants. Versaillaise—Same as the Cherry, but the bunches are larger. White Grape—Fruit large, mild and excellent, best white The fruit requires the same cultivation as the currant. The surest method to prevent mildew is to plant thickly in the rows, and mulch deeply, six or more inches with straw, tan bark, coal ashes, etc. Plantations thus treated have borne large crops for 20 years. The mulch retains moisture in the dryest weather. The few weeds that push up are easily pulled, and the fruit is large and more evenly ripened. In mulching be sure the ground is under-drained, or it is worse than useless. Good cultivation is better than half mulching. Put it on thick. In a dry season the extra amount of fruit will doubly pay for the material used, not to speak of the saving of labor and cleanliness of the fruit. The price is remunerative, and the demand is yearly increasing. The American varieties are not subject to mildew. ENGLISH VARIETIES. The number of varie
