The most important commercial
sOur-cherry orchards are located in the
Hudson River valley, in western New
York, western Michigan, northern
Ohio, the Arkansas river valley, in Col
oradO, Door county, Wisconsin, parts
of Iowa. and to lesser extent in 9th
or states. Large quantities of cher
ries in the aggregate are produced in
states and sections not specifically
mentioned. but as rule the orchards
are small and do not represent impor-
tant community interests.
The leading varieties of sweet cher
ries are less hardy than the best
known sour sorts. Their endurance
of cold corresponds more nearly TO
that of the peach. 1t may be doubted
whether sweet cherries as a group
endure long. hot summers any better

MARKET FIRST-CLASS FRUIT
CHARGES Are Just as Much on Box Of
Inferior Apples as on That Of
Superior Quality.

Marketing fruit depends upon sue
cessful growing. grading, picking and
packing. No man lives nowadays who
can successfully market a half-colOred,
poorly packed. wormy box of apples.
A great many times growers are dis
appointed in sales for any one Of these
