We are gratifed to notice the increasing
interest in this subject. There vas held an
Exhibition of FruiE at Pc ria, on the 18th
ultimo, at which fruits Of great excellence
were presented by the nursery men in that
region Of he country.-Edson Hardness,
ESQ. of Peorju county, an old fruit grower,
delivered a sensible address-from which the
following extract is taken:
The adaptation Of our climate to the pro-
duction of the most perfect apples has now
become so we'll proved that none can doubt
And by the way this fruit is worth more TO
the people of the temperate zone than all
other fruits put to gether,--Our soil aud
climate are believed by many 10 be the very
best in the United States, and by all who
know any thing Of the subject, it is admitted
10 be among the best. And one pecnliarity
belonging to the subject is, that in this count
~ there Is no danger Of 81 over production
CT good fruit. When Illinois is able to pro-
duce times the amount necessary for home
consumption she will still fnd ready mar
ket in the sugar and cotton regions of the
South. Ii il true that the market is sup
piled from other sources. But is it not
plain that if we can produce the best article,
keep it in the best orde', and send it to
