A New Cherry.

We have always regretted the fact
that cherries could not be grown in
Florida. Although we have so many
other fruits which cannot be grown at
the north, those who have been accus-
toned to cherries, raspberries ETC.,
cannot reconcile themselves to doing
without them. Most Of the varieties
Of Japanese fruit which have been tested
in this state, have proved to be well
adapted to our soil and climate
Therefore we have some hope that we
may be able to- grow cherries yet in
Florida. The California Fruit Grower
tells of some new cherries from Japan,
which have been introduced into that
State We hope that as soon as they
are offered for sale some of Our enter
prising nurserymen will send for trees
and test them here. The Fruit Grower
says:
A year or so ago one OF the ex-
plorers of the Department of Agri-
culture sent from Japan a few buds
from cherry tree found in re-
mote part of China. It was of fair fla
vor, but slightly under size as compar-
ed with the varieties found in this
country. Other varieties were also
sent and these were budded on trees
located at the Plant Introduction Gar
den at Chico. A fair growth was made
and about two months ago one of these
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1907-05-22

new branches sent out blossoms, and
last Saturday the cherries began to rip
en-.
Mr.. Dorset, in discussing the result
of the experiment, said that it could
not be foretold what value it would
have, but thought that possibly it
would lead up to finding something OF
value to certain sections. The fact
that the blossoms had wthstood cold
weather and the fruit had developed SO
early was indicative of value.
Among the ornamental plants now
being nurtured at the Garden none at
tracts more attention than the flower
ing Japanese cherries. They are now
in full bloom and the blossoms are in
some instances two inches in diameter
and Of most beautiful color-white,.
with delicate tinge of pink toward
the tips of the petals. Those who are
fortunate enough to secure through
the Department any of this choice va
riety may well prize them They will
not be distributed, however, to indi-
viduals until more have been propa-
gated.

The school garden that was once pooh
poohed as a foolish fad is now &C
cepted by the United States Commits
sioner of Education and by the leading
universities of the land as vital to
our public school system as manual
training OF any sort,'' writes Herbert
D. Ward in the Woman's Home Com
panion.
"The first school garden in the
United States was started sixteen years
ago by Henry L. Clap in the George
Putnam Grammar School in Boston.
Over eighty years ago Austria and
Sweden began the movement. At pres
ent no rural school in Sweden is with
out one. Russia is far ahead of us.
There are over twenty thousand in
Austria and thirty thousand in France
The reason why school gardens are
fostered by the foreign governments
is that wherever they exist there. is a
decrease OF misery and poverty and an
increase in the birth rate and in the
appreciation of nature"
