pears is overpast, the Dempsey iS s
welcome addition to the list. We ate
the fruits with a good deal of gusto.
The Dempsey was produced from a
seed of the Bartlett fertilized with
Duchesse d'Angouleme. The tree is de-
scribed as an upright, good grower;
foliage large, glossy dark green, re-
sembling both parents. Fruit large,
obtuse pyriform, irregular in outline,
as is seen in our life sketch. Skin
smooth, green, changing to yellow as It
ripens, with a slight brown tinge where
exposed to the sun, Stem about an inch
long, stout, and set slightly to one side.
Calyx shallow. Flesh white, fine
grained, tender, buttery, almost melt
ing, with a rich, sweet, delicious flavor.
AS a desert or market pear it is of the
highest merit. Season, October and
November. Judging from the condition
of the samples before US, we should say
the fruit will prove good shipper, and
that after all is not the least valuable al
tribute.-American Gardening.

Hints for Fruit Growers.

There are several things fruit pro-
ducers should resolve to do, viz: Grade
their fruits, wrap in paper the fine fruit,
evaporate the second grade and not
have any third grade. The southwest
should profit from the experience of
California and make the start. Fruit
put up in fancy packages will sell from
so cents to one dollar per crate more
than that put up in the ordinary way,
and the highest price will not be for
the unwrapped fruit.-our Horticul-
