HOughton's Seeding Gooscberry.
This Goose berry is said to be a cross between
our native Gooseberry and some foreign kind, and
was originated by Mr.. Ale. Haughton, Of Lynn,
Mass. We have cult waited this Goosc berry two
years. land have found il hardy "a great bearer,
and the fruit OF fine qualityfrom very small roots
obtained from Mr.. Cahoon, of Kenosha, in the
spring of 1852, the twigs Of which were less than
foot in length, produced last year abundance OF
fruit ".3 pr .ns
This Goosebery excels all other kinls az grow>
err. Its twigs are long, straight and slender, and
should be tied up a trellis, the same as grape
vine in order to make them bear proflseIy. Mr.,
Cahoon, of Kenosha, has a single bush that covers
a space ten feet square 'r'raa-rs
This berry is not large as some other vario-
ties, but the skin is thin, flesh fine, tender sweet,
and Of delicious flavor. 1t ism good rendion
for cooking in about four weeks Wisconsin
