many other kinds of fruit and garden
produce are fast becoming acclimated.
The orange and lemon trees are of the
dwarf kind, but the fruit is large and
good Mrs E. E. Patterson has an or
ange tree years old that has produced
fruit for two years. Mrs. NJ. A. An

the year. Pears and-dates grow pro-
fusely among the young people.
